Sewing Machines

This concerns the best sewing machine we
know and you. 1t combines all the good
points of other machines, with which you may
be familiar, besides others peculiarly its own.
That's why we've called it the "Wanamaker. F"
None other than the best could rightfully bear
our name.
Then, too, it's the lowest-priced machine,
for one possessing its good qualities, on the
market today. The fact that we sell it direct to
you from the store, without csnvassers or out
side instructors to create additional expense, ac-
counts for much of the saving in price.
One style, a complete, perfect sewing
is $l8. Another, fitted with special hemmers,
is $40; with extra hemmers, $40; with other at
tachments, $22. $3.50 on up to $35-the added
cost representing more elaborate cabinet work.

BEFORE reached these jewellers by
the sea, and he was received with the
greatest hospitality. But, the real
country of the Ajetas had not been
reached. So after rest of some days
the march was resumed and continued
until at last, they fell in with party
of the long sought savages. Now
let the good doctor tell his own story
in his own way. The naivete of the
tale is lost in the translation. Zone
morning, as we were silently pursu-
chorus of shrill voices, more resemb-
ling those of birds than of men. Pre-
sently we perceived at short dis
lance, about forty savages, of both
sexes and all ages, having completely
the animals. They were gathered
round a large fire hard by stream.
We took few steps forward, present
ing our guns at them. When they
understood this, they drew up in a
line, like soldiers on parade, it was
| the signal that we might approach.
We did so, cigars in hand, and, COM
mencing at the extremity of the line.
| distributed my Gift. 1t was very
important to make friends of them,
and according to their usages to give
to each an equal part. The pregnant
women counted for two. and they tap
ped themselves on the belly to give
me to understand that they were to
have double allowance The distribu-
tion over, our alliance was complete,
the savages had nothing more to fear
from us nor we from them. They all
began smoking. A deer was hanging
from a tree; the chief took a bamboo
knife, and cut off three large pieces
of venison, threw them into the glow
ing embers, and minute afterwards,
withdrew them, and presented piece
to each of us The outside of this
savage carbonate was rather burnt and
ashy, the inside quite raw and bloody.
1t would not do to show repugnance
our entertainers would have been
scandalized and / wished to live with
them few days in harmony. So
ate my bit of deer, which, upon the
whole, was not so very bad. My
Indians follows my example and
thenceforward, treachery was out of
the question.
Conversation with the Ajetas, of
course, was impossible, but, forum
ately Tagal woman was found, who
acted as interpreter. Through this
means, much information was obtained
concerning this strange people. They
resembled monkeys more than human
beings in their gatherings and cries.
There was no mistaking the gestures.
their similarity to those of Simia
tribe was beyond any doubt.

every city, town and village in the
State, it's population, banking facili-
ties, railroad connections, industries
not in operation, factory buildings
now idle but available for use, and
other information of advantage to the
community. Residents who can fur
nish information on any of the fol-
lowing points are requested to for
ward it to the above named Bureau
at Trenton:
/. Railroad connections and distance
from nearest station.
2. Quantity of land available for
factory sites and the conditions on
which it may be obtained by persons
DESTROYS of establishing factories.
3. Number of buildings now idle
that are suitable for factory purposes
the floor area of each; and the prices
at which the buildings may be pur-
chased or the rent per month asked for
them.
A. The kind of power available
steam, water, electric.
5. What special advantages are

very much to be regretted that so
highly an educated man with his at
tainments, and ability, who was OBJ
servant of what be saw, has not given
us the benefit of his views on the
ethnology of the islands and other
scientific developments, which must
have challenged his attention and
instructed us by some specimen of
the valuable informant which he must
have gained.
He went to see these Ajetas. but
ucder the most distressing circum-
stances; he lost his wife and other
near and dear relatives. He was left
with an only child, son and was
overwhelmed with grief His thoughts
turned to his old mother in France
and he longed to get away from scenes
which tormented him with so many
mementos of his dead wife. But, at
this juncture in his career, a friend
visited him at his residence in the
peninsula and induced him to put into
execution his long deferred visit to
Ajetas, accompanied by only two
Indians, one of them his faithful lieu
tenant, the ex- brigand, who always
attended him wherever he went. The
party were well armed, but their bag
gage was very scanty; their journey
would last weeks, and must be taken
over rugged mountains across swollen
rivers and through wild forests.
Their shelter at night was to be the
canopy of heaven, or the shade of
these wild forests. The mighty trees,
which our author saw, ON this journey
attracted his attention ana elected
from him very glowing descriptions.
But the magnifcence of the sight was
accompanied with many great dis
comforts, not the least of which, was a
fyirg leech, which crouching in the
trees or in the grass, lay in wait for
the passing traveller, leaping like a
grasshopper on it's prey. The bite of
this reptile is not very dangerous, but
great care must be taken to protect
the person from it's consequences. A
small bamboo knife was carried by
each of the three travellers, which
WIS used to scrape off the leech and
thin chewed tobacco was rubbed on
the wound. The dangerous assailants
appeared in great numbers, more
voracious than their congeners of
western chimes and our travellers
were more than glad to escape from
the high wooded mountains where
their tormentors were mostly found
and reach the level plains below. The
route was eastward towards the
Pacific, which, after innumerable
dangers and great privations was at
last reached early in the evening, and
after a hearty meal of shell fish the
exhausted men threw themselves on
the sand and sunk into profound
sleep, from which they were awaken
ed by the attacks of countless hermit
crabs, who swarmed around them,
using their claws with great alertness
and wonderful courage while engaged
in combat with these new antagon-
lists lights were discovered at dis
lance on the edge of the forest, in the
hands of two Ajetas, in search of fish.
The savages soon took to flight and
M. Gironiere and his friends found a
Tagaloe village. The fame of the
leader of the expedition had long

bandit became his lieutenant and
faithfully obeyed to the end.
( The authors estimate of the natives
is so excellent that it is quoted "The
Tagalo Indian sets value on his word
and vet he is a liar. He holds anger
in horror, comparing it to madness and
prefers drunkenness, which, however,
he also despises. To avenge an injus-
tice he scruples not to use his dagger );
abuse is what he least supports, even
when it is merited. When he has
committed fault he will bear blows
without a murmur, but hard words
he cannot endure. He is brave, gem
erous, fatalist. The profession of a
robber, which he readily adopts,
pleases him we'll, by reason of it's ex-
element and lawless liberty, not be-
canse he may grow rich by following
it, Generally the Tagaloes are good
fathers and good husbands-t two quail
ties rarely found apart. Horribly jeal-
GUS of their wives they are careless of
the honor of their daughters and little
heed the faults that brides may have
committed prior to marriage. They
never require a dowry with the woman
they marry; they bring one them
selves and make presents to the parents
of the betrothed. They look scorn-
fully at the coward but readily attach
themselves to the man who has the
courage to brave danger. They love
combats between animals, especially
cock fights -
In the peninsula, which he had &C.
quired, he built for himself and his
family large and commodious
house and surrounded it with village
composed of comfortable dwellings,
occupied by his subjected Indians.
The author relates many fishing
and hunting adventures, fishing for
caymans, hunting for wild pythons and
wilder buffaloes, but interesting and
thrilling as are his tales lack of space
will not permit their recital here.
But one or two of these explorations
ought to be related, and as to one of
them, his own words are partly quo
ted cit is possible, almost incontes-
table" says our author, that the
Philippine Islands, were originally
peopled by race of small negroes,
who are still found in tolerably large
numbers in the interior of the forest
and whom the Tagaloes call Ajetas
the Spanairds, Negntos. At period,
doubtless very remote, the nearest
neighbors of the Philippines, the
Malays, invaded the sea-board, and
drove the indigenous population into
the interior, subsequently, either in
consequence of the casualties of navi-
CATION or to profit by the soil, they
were joined by the Chinese and Japan
ese, by the inhabitants of the vast
archipelagoes of the Southern Seas,
by Javans, and even by Hindoos.
From the mixture, which resulted
from the union of these various races,
physically so dissimilar, have issued
the various shades of color and charac-
ter of physiognomy observable
amongst the Tagaloes, who. never
theless, preserve in general, the
Malay countenance and cruelty.
1t may be remarked in passing that
this extract will exhibit about all
the scientific remarks which can be
found in DR.. Gironiere's book. 1t is
