 Five Dollars in cash to every person who sends the correct answer in accordance with 

 the conditions given on the next page. 



This will not only afford lovers of flowers a pleasant occupation, but will add

The puzzle is just difficult enough to make it interesting, and simple enough to 

 make possible its correct solution by any person who is reasonably familiar with the 

 names of common flowers and ornamental plants. 



In preparing the puzzle we have used no botanical or scientific names, nor 

 names in foreign languages. The names used in the correct answer are all common 

 English names. ~ 



We have in no case used the name of any rare plant known only to experts. 

 The plants are all common and well known. 



Most of the names can be found in almost any floral catalogue, though in some 

 cases the catalogue may use the botanical or scientific name where we have used 

 the common one. There may be a few names of flowers so common that they have 

 been dropped by most florists. 



Our aim has been to make the solution of the puzzle possible for any person who 

 is in any degree familiar with the names of common flowers and plants and will give 

 the matter a little study. 



We wish to get all flower lovers in the country engaged in this interesting work 

 and will be glad to have those who know of it bring it to the attention of their friends.

 the success of anybody else, and the success of thousands of others will not interfere 

 with yours.
