mHE STAE ALMANACK A.NB i X DIRECTORY. OPINIONS G$ THE PEBSS. We have to acknowledge the receipt from the publishers of a copy of the Haweba Stab Almanac and DiBEOTOB-sr for 1893. A farther increase in the bulk of this useful volume is again shown by the addition o£ 80 pages of interesting matter. The Woodville directory has also been inelnded, and the Dairy Industries Act, of 1892, has also been added to the reprintß oi statutes of special interest to country readers. The Almanac is a complete compendium of every information suitfiMe to the requirements of the settler, and as such should find a place in every household.— Waimate Witness. Once again we have to acknowledge the receipt of this much valued publU cation, and to congratulate the publishers on issuing so useful a book. Tear by year the Stab Almanac has increased in size and usefulness, until it has now, besides being a capital almanac and directory, become a complete settlers' guide and companion. An additional 71 •pages have been added to the book during the past year. Considering the extent of country embraced by the directory, the information contained is surprisingly correct. Nothing is more convincing of the astonishing progress the districts extending from the White Cliffs to Foxton are making than a perusal of the Almanac and Directory for this year. In addition to the ordinary calendar, diary, and directory, a lob of information is given regarding th 9 rainfall, Btatisticß of the Registrars of Births, Deaths, and Marriageß, and a gardener's calendar. Full information regarding the Police, R.M., District, and Courts, Custom House, depersons' estates duties, and Wanganui Education District is also given. Under the heading of "The Farm" are very valuable agricultural notes. Fishing and shooting regulations are also published. The Postal and Telegraph Guide also contains some very full and valuable information Sporting men will find a lot of useful records of all the principal racing events. A compendium of statistics invaluable to settlers is also to be found, containing a digest of the Fencing Act, the Cattle, and Sheep Acts, the Dog Registration Act, Fencing Act Amendment, etc. Information re stamp duties, Public Trust Office, Grown grants, and a mass of New Zealand and Australian statistics of considerable interest and value are also to be found. The business people of the district have also given the book a generous support, and aa an advertising medium the book is yearly becoming more and more valuable. The general get-up, the letter-press, and arrangement of the volume is exceedingly creditable to the Star office and all connected with its publication. The almanac is one the whole^ district may feel proud of .—Stratford Settler. One of the most useful Almanacs and West Coast directories is that published by Messrs Inneß and Co., of the Star Office, Hawera. This annual production has considerably increased in size. In 1891 it consisted of 280 pages. This This year we notice it has 420 pages, It is full of information of value to the country settler, and is one of the best and cheapest shilling's worth in the colony. — Marton Mercury. We have to acknowledge with thanks the receipt of a copy of the Haweka Stab Almanac for 1893. Tear by year this publication increases in value while . published at the same price. The present issue consists of nearly 300 pages of valuable information of everyday requirement, not the least of which is a carefully compiled directory of the coast and intermediate centres from Palmerston North to New Plymouth. It is however, beyond possibility to give, anything like an epitome of its contents as they are far too numerous and varied for mention, and we must content ourBelvee in saying that the man who is without a copy has overlooked the best investment on the coast.— Patea Press. Holloway's Ointment. — The great clima tic "vatitttouß -which so\dieta and sailors experience render them liable to a variety of diseases the development of which is favoured by exposure and hardships — often, it is to be fßared, by their own carlessness as well. Holloway's remedies afforded a safe and easy means of cure for those contitutional and local maladies ■which are bo 4requently engendarep by residence in unhealthy climates and by incautious living. The Ointment is a wounderfully healing application, as it cleanses the surface of foul sores and ulcers, soothes the throbbing and pain in cases of inflammation, and checks the progress of skin diseases. The Pills purify the blood, cleanse the liver, and remove all noxious matter from the system.
