1t is white skinned. 1t has yielded 500
bushels to the acre. Planted side by
side with Early Rose, New York Late
Rose, Peerless and Brownell's Beauty,
it has e1celled them all in yield. In
beauty of form it is unexcelled, the pro-
portions being all that can be desired, and
it is never hollow hearted. It has the
good characteristic of yielding almost no
small potetoes. It has but few eyes,
which are sunk but little below the sur
face. In quality it is fine grained, of ex-
cellent flavor, either boiled or baked and
is dry and foury. 1t attains its best
qualities towards spring. It ranks be-
tween the very early and very late varie-
ties. Price, one fourth bushel, rs cents;
one bushel, $500.

THE commonplaces of every day crit
icism seem tame and tale, when its SUBJ
ject is genius so subtle, delicate and
rare, as that of this lovely and gifted
lady. Miss Coombs appeals to every
better emotion of the human heart;
woman's tenderness self-abnegation, no.
BILE impulses and pure affection have nev-
er, within our memory, found an in
terpreter so faithful and true. And yet
the wonderful versatility of this brilliant
artistic infuses such dash, sparkle and
grace into the lighter characters of come
dy that it is difficult to realize how readi-
ly the laughing eyes of Lady Gay can be
dimmed by Margaret Elmore's tears, and
the ringing laugh of Constance can be
changed to the gentle tones of Lady
Evelyn Amyott. To these delightful
gifts Miss Coombs adds an exquisite per
sonal beauty, and faultless taste in cos
tuning that greatly enhances her fasci-
mating impersonations. Each pose is
worthy of perpetuation in marble. Moth
ing more impressively statuesque can be
imagined than her attitude in cloves
Sacrifice" as she prevents her father
from kneeling to Paul Lafont. She looks
like an avenging goddess. AS Lady
Teazle, when discovered by the falling of
the screen, the bowed head, dropping
figure and nerveless hand make picture
never to be forgotten. Indeed when
each position is study it is useless thus
to particularize. As for Miss Coombs'
voice it is entirely phenomenal short,
she is the possessor of gifts but rarely
vouchsafed. and nobly does she use them.

already undertaken to carry out the same idea in
their own business.-AMERIcAs WATCH COMPANY,
