Glass always pays — for 
it makes its own weather 
It admits the sunlight and holds it to its work in 
spite of zero outside. It insures early and profitable 
crops. Even the old style single layer sash pay, but 
do not compare with 
These are complete in themselves, eliminating mats 
and shutters, labor and all; keeping the plants growing 
by conserving the heat day and night; making crops 
early and doubling profits. 
The Sunlight Double Glass Sash idea is carried into 
the Sunlight Greenhouse—a small and inexpensive struc¬ 
ture. It is 11 ft. x 12 ft. in size, and the roof and two 
sides are covered with the Sunlight Double Glass Sash. 
It is quickly and cheaply heated. The sash are readily 
removable and in the Sirring may be used on cold-frames 
and hot-beds. The framework is made in sections, 
easily put together. 
Write today for a copy of our free catalog, and for .{c we will send 
you a copy of Prof. Massey’s booklet on how to make and use hot¬ 
beds and cold-frames.

S AVE years of waiting and at once add a 
definite market money value to your prop¬ 
erty. The trees in the above picture were 
planted from our nursery two years ago. 
They are now fifteen feet high and twenty- 
five feet wide. 
Why buy a number of small trees and have 
to wait years and years for any really satis¬ 
factory results, when you can, for surprisingly 
little additional cost, secure one or more of 
Hicks’ big Maples, Lindens, Oaks, Catalpas 
and such, that will at once overcome that fif¬ 
teen to twenty years’ waiting for small trees 
to grow up? 
Surely all the logic of common sense argues 
for Ilicks’ large trees. 
We have trees in all sizes from six inches 
up to thirty feet high, with a 15 -foot spread, 
but we strongly recommend our larger trees, 
because we believe them a better investment 
for you. 
Don't hesitate, fearing big trees cannot be 
moved successfully. We have been doing it 
with marked success for over thirty years. 
They can be shipped safely 1,000 miles. 
Come to our Nursery and pick out just the 
ones you want. 
If you can’t come, send for catalog, or tell 
us what you feel you want and we will advise 
you what seems best for your particular needs. 
Isaac Hicks & Son, Westbury, Long Island 
“Imagine a person, tall, lean and feline, 
high-shouldered, with a brow like Shake¬ 
speare and a face like Satan.” That’s Dr. 
Fu-Manchu. 
“I had 
lovely. 
never 
seen a face so seductively 
* With a skin of a perfect 
blonde, she had eyes and lashes as black as a Creole’s.” 
That’s Karamaneh. The cruel machinations of the Chinese 
genius, the lure of the Oriental slave girl, the workings of 
the most surprising criminal system ever devised, and the 
cunning of Nayland Smith, detective, go toward making 
this the most stirring, gripping, and altogether fascinating 
adventure tale in years. 
Detective stories are generally compared to the work of 
Poe, Gaboriau, or Conan Doyle. BUT THIS ONE IS IN¬ 
COMPARABLE. It won’t be long before something “simi¬ 
lar to Fu-Manchu” will be written, for this novel marks a 
CRITERION IN DETECTIVE STORIES.
