Aquatic Plants for Aquariums.

 Long, trailing stems, clothed with whorls of the most exqui- 

 site foliage, as delicate as the Cy])ress Vine. Planted in 

 water-tight hanging-basket, so water can be kept standing on 

 the surface, it will trail finely. iD cts. each; $1.00 per doz. 



There is a rapidly growing interest in the culture of fancy fish 

 and aquatic plants in Aquariums, and it is doubtful if anything is 

 more fascinating to the young as well as to the older members of 

 the household than to watch the development of animal and plant 

 life in the Aquaria. 



It is absolutely essential for the welfare of the fish that sufficient 

 plants be grown in the Aquarium to supply them with air. The list 

 of plants offered below are the best known oxygenators, and there 

 should be at least one plant to every two gallons of water. 



For full details of management we recommend the book, The 

 Amateur Aquarist, a very practical work. Price, $1.00.
