GOLDFISHES 
for Pools and Aquariums 
T HE water lily pool is always picturesque, but when you add gay- 
colored fishes—then your pool becomes the most alluring spot in 
the garden. While many prefer the common and giant gold¬ 
fishes for pools, the fancy types are much preferred by some, espe¬ 
cially for the small pool.

A NOVELTY FOR YOUR POOL 
GOLDEN ORF. The Orf is a native of Europe and is ex- 
' tremely hardy. Its habits are quite similar 
to our native trout and it will leap out of the water to catch 
insects. It will, however, live in perfect contentment in a 
still water pool. One feature which is particularly attractive 
is its surface-swimming habit, which keeps the fish con¬ 
stantly in view. This attractive fish is more elongated and 
cylindrical than the ordinary goldfish. With its pleasing 
orange color it presents a beautiful sight to the pool lover. 
$1.50 pair; $3.50 for six; $6 dozen. Order early.
