Those of You Who Have "Tips 

 and Pointers" Will Enjoy 

 "Unvarnished Facts!" JHTAVAYAlM 



"Tips and Pointers," received so enthusiastically last year, contained 

 many good things, but as some of my friends were frank to say, I 

 omitted all reference, to Peony Purgatory. Since there is nothing in the 

 life or culture of Peonies that need be hidden under a bushel, I have tried 

 to remedy the shortcomings of my first attempt and it now affords me 

 great pleasure to advise that we just completed the first 10,000 edition 

 of the latest contribution to Peony literature. 



To Create a 

 Healthy Appetite 



Too Good to "Give Away" But, 



I Will GUARANTEE Your Investment

For those not familiar with "Tips 

 and Pointers," I have a few hundred 

 copies left which I will gladly send 

 free to those who call for them first. 



"Tips and Pointers" can not fail to 

 create in you not only an appetite for a 

 Peony garden, but also a desire to see 

 the greatly improved edition offered 

 alongside under the title of 

 "Unvarnished Facts." 



As stated before, you are 

 welcome to "Tips and 

 Pointers" as long as the 

 edition lasts- H. S. C. 



"Unvarnished Facts" is by far the 

 most expensive book I have ever pub- 

 lished. In illustrations alone there are 

 some color lithographs produced at 

 a cost of $750 each. I want every 

 reader of Garden Magazine to have 

 a copy of "Unvarnished Facts," but I 

 can not afford to distribute it to curi- 

 osity seekers or those not interested in 

 the Peony. Send me 25c. for the book 

 and if, after reading it, you do not 

 think it worth $1.00, your money will 



be returned and you can keep the book 

 besides. 



Or, you may deduct 25c. from the 

 first order amounting to $3.00. Thus 

 you really get the book free in the end. 



This is perhaps the most unqualified 

 guarantee ever made in connection with 

 a book. Write promptly before the 

 edition is exhausted. I started in with 

 10,000 "Tips and Pointers"; before I 

 got through requests for 20,000 reached 

 me.
