CICERO HOUSEWIFE BECOMES 
A CELEBRITY 
Mrs. Zarobsky Grows An Orchid 
Mrs. Zarobsky of Cicero, Illinois, 
likes to grow things. In her small 
but attractive sun’ parlor you will 
find hugh house plants, trailing vines, 
and many flowering plants, including 
Orchids. To walk into her sun parlor 
on a winter’s day is like a breath of 
spring. |

When Mrs. Zarobsky flowered her 
first Orchid, much to the delight of 
her family and the amazement of her 
friends, she became Cicero’s most 
MRS. ZAROBSKY WRITES: 
glamourous citizen, because for gen- 
“My small collection is doing quite well, and 
C. Mossiae had 2 beautiful blooms in May which 
that the growing of Orchids by the lasted 3 weeks and were very fragrant. It was news

was impossible. 
. There are only two kinds of people who cannot grow orchids in their homes. 
One is an Eskimo living in an igloo at the North Pole; the other is a Cliff Dweller 
living in the recesses of a dark cave. Orchids need a spot near a window where they 
can get some light. They need protection against freezing. Since the average home has 
windows and is heated in the winter, it is suitable for Orchids. 
You can grow and flower Orchids in your home if you will give them the 
v4 simple and reasonable care they require. Mrs. Zarobsky did not know an Orchid from 
an Onion plant when she purchased a few plans from me. Yet, within a few months 
she flowered her Orchid plant and since then has ordered and is successfully growing 
many of them. Mrs. Zarobsky pioneered Orchid growing in Cicero, and you can do 
so in your town. You need only a bit of Mrs.’ Zarobsky’s pioneering spirit! My in- 
struction pamphlets will help show you the way. You cannot fail, and you may 
always write me for any special advice if needs be.
