GARDENERS
MANUAL

The Gazette a now. for tho
drst time, offer a very helpful
guide for Southern gardeners. in
the new work OF Prof. J. $.
Newman. He has long laugh,
this branch aud pra>.iced it, and
his book is the only practical
one Of the kind in print for
Southern conditions. Very help
tut infor nation is given on all
kinds OF vegetables and small
fruits, including instructions on
CON batting parasite and insect
pests. on what. when and how to
plant. If it's instructions arc
followed it will save labor, in.
crease yields, give a variety Of
wholesome food, make gardening
4 pleasure. and supply fresh
%succulcnt food /, months in the
year. The price OF the book is
81, and orders can be sent d,-
rect to the Gazette; or IS cents
can be added 70 what is RENTED
for the Gazette, aud the book
will be sent TO subscribers.
Both those who have and those
who have not had wide expert
ence with vegetables and small
fruits will certainly DC aided by
the book. The Gazette could
not afford TO make these state
ments without good reasons,
and hopes its subscribers will
benefit by this arrangement TO
give them a reduced price on
the book. 1t is not large, but is
pointed. 1t is not wild theoriz-
ing, but a statement Of how good
work has been done with ease
and profit by a practical man.

organization in Toxic today of the
first general conference of the Nip

important epoch in the history OF
Methodism in the far east. 1t means
that Japan is no longer to be mis-
sionary country in the organization

occupy a place among the great
English-speaking countries of the
world. The change was first du-
thorizcd by the general conferences
of the churches of the United States
and Canada, and was in response to
the practically unanimous conviction
IF the pastors and members of the
churches in Japan, as well as the
earnest desire of the foreign mission

The church begins its new life witt
membership CT 1850. with more
than a hundred native ministers. Tit
Methodist churches of the United
States and Canada, while no longe

THE SEWING MACHINE FROM A
HYGIENIC VIEWPOINT-ITS
EFFECT ON WOMEN.

Husbands who are solicitous re-
garding the health and well being OF
their wives should regard the hygiene |
features of the sewing machine as be-
ing of tenfold greater import than all
the other features, for health should |
take precedence over everything else'
The only safe rule is to select a sew
ing machine that has received the in
dorsement Of most competent and un-
biased hygienic authority.
Ruv no sewing machine that is not
constructed along the most thoroughly
scientific lines, nor machine that re-
ouires undue force in its propulsloh'
hut upon the other hand, let these
features be the prime ones in deter
mining your choice,
At least one sewing machine Is Ut
terly free from criticism along these
lines by the physicians and the hygien-
ist The well known Standard Rotary
Sewing Machine, either because OF
the long years of experience Of Its
,oanufa cturers. enabling them to grad
ually eliminate all such undesirable
features, or on account Of its superior
mechanism, certainly Is free from
every Objectionable feature OF the
kind.
II is hygienically correct, and can
be used without fatigue or strain, mas
much as a cramped position on the
mart Of the operator is avoided; II does
not require undue strength to prope
Il. II never runs unevenly, thus avoid
ing shocks and jars.
There may be other sewing ma
chimes that are free from the hyglehi'
objections mentioned, but they nav
not come under observation or inves
legations, aud our examination cover
about every sewing machine IN IN
American market.
The editorial department OF IN
New York Health Journal Is not at a
interested in augmenting the sales o
increasing the profits of any one man
ufacturer. but 1t is decidedly interest
ed in protecting the health of Its sub
scribers by affording fair and unpias
ed Information to its readers who see
these editorial columns for unprejudic
ed suggestions and disinterested ao
vice that cannot be found IN eithe
printed circulars sent out by manu-
facturers, newspaper advertisement
or paid "write-ups."
Not for the benefit Of those VIII
may incidentally profit by our stat'
ments, but solely III the interests
readers, we unhesitatingly say thi
the standard machine is the only sew
ing machine upon which has been b'
slowed the unqualified editorial II
dorsement of the New York Heai'
Journal.
