Many marginal cuts. $1.00. The Garden of a Commuter's Wife Recorded by the Gardener WITH EIGHT PHOTOGRAVURE ILLUSTRATIONS Cloth 12mo $1.50 "In brief, the book is delightfully sketchy and chatty, thoroughly feminine and entrancing. The writer represents herself as a doctor's daughter in a country town, who has married an Englishman, and after two years abroad has come home to live. Both husband and wife prefer the country to the city, and they make of their modest estate a mundane paradise of which it is a privilege to have a glimpse. Surely it is no exaggeration to characterize this as one of the very best books of the holiday season, thus far."--_Providence Journal._ "It is written with charm, and is more than a mere treatise on what may be raised in the small lot of the suburban resident. "The author has not only learned to appreciate nature from intimate association, but has achieved unusual power of communicating these facts to others. There is something unusually attractive about the book."--_The Philadelphia Inquirer._ * * * * * A Woman's Hardy Garden By HELENA RUTHERFORD ELY With many Illustrations from Photographs taken in the Author's Garden by Professor C.F. CHANDLER Cloth 12MO $1.75 net "It Is never for a moment vague or general, and Mrs. Ely is certainly inspiring and helpful to the prospective gardener."--_Boston Herald._ "Mrs. Ely gives copious details of the cost of plants, the exact dates of planting, the number of plants required in a given space for beauty of effect and advantage to free growth, the protection needed from sun and frost, the precautions to take against injury from insects, the satisfaction to be expected from the different varieties of plants in the matter of luxuriant bloom and length of time for blossoming, and much information to be appreciated only by those who have raised a healthy garden by the slow teachings of personal experience."--_New York Times Saturday Review._ * * * * * THE MACMILLAN COMPANY 66 Fifth Avenue, New York End of Project Gutenberg's The Fat of the Land, by John Williams Streeter *** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK THE FAT OF THE LAND *** ***** This file should be named 16525.txt or 16525.zip ***** This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: http://www.gutenberg.org/1/6/5/2/16525/ Produced by Bill Tozier, Barbar
