A 



Beautiful 



Lawn 



Is to the house as the 

 setting to a gem. A 

 beautiful home beauti- 

 fully located, deserves 

 a beautiful lawn sur- 

 rounding it. Ordinary 

 grass seed or sod will 

 not do. You must get 



Waterer's Special Evergreen Lawn Grass 



to get best results., It is the best that money can buy— the result of 30 

 years' experience in lawn making in Europe and America. It is a blend 

 of ten of the finest dwarf-growing, slender-leaved, hardy grasses — early, 

 medium and late (practically evergreen) and all of them of permanent 

 character (not annual), and all tested for the trying American climate.

 COOPER SAYS OF 



"THE 



Heart of Darkness 



By JOSEPH CONRAD 



"One of the shortest stories Mr. Conrad 

 has written, and at the same time contain- 

 ing one of the biggest most suggestive of 

 his themes. It is nothing less than a pre- 

 sentment of the clashing of two continents, 

 a symbolic picture of the inborn antagon- 

 ism of two races, the white and the black." 



"The Heart of Darkness" 



is one of three stories in 



"Youth"
