OLD-FASHIONED 

 FLOWERS 



ORo HARDY 

 PERENNIALS 



TO know them is to love them ; to 

 know them well is to love them 

 dearly. They are not for a feyir 

 months of a single season only; but, like 

 the good friend and true, they remaki 

 for all time with those who love them, 

 revealing their sweetness and increased 

 beauty as the years pass by. These 

 hardy flowers flourish in almost every 

 soil, need but little care, and require no 

 special knowledge to succeed with them. 

 That those who have never ordered of 

 me may, at small outlay, learn of the 

 excellence of my Hardy Perennials, I 

 offer the following special collections by 

 mail postpaid — all well-developed plants 

 which will bloom freely the first season :

The 

 Hercules 

 Did It 



THE new Hercuies catalog is a beauty; 

 it tells lots of things about Concrete 

 Construdion that every Contrador, 

 Archited and Builder should know. Sixty- 

 six pages of meaty matter, including fifty 

 illustrations. 



The Chicago Convention proved one 

 thing — that the Hercules Cement Stone 

 Machine is still 365 days ahead of them 

 all. It makes more sizes and larger variety 

 of blocks than any other machine. It makes 

 two blocks of the same size and design, or 

 of different sizes and designs, on the one 

 machine at the same time. It is the sim- 

 plest machine in the world — no pins, cogs, 

 chains, springs or levers. In strength, dura- 

 bility and adaptability it leaves all others 

 far behind. Send for Catalog C — to-day ; 

 it's free to you.
