Mrs. Garde Id Is described as a graceful and slen¬ 
der woman, with brown eyes, brown hair dressed 
stylishly, a clear skin and delicate features. She

sive self-assertion. She is something of an artist 
herself and very fond of pictures.

Caution must bo taken in selecting Orange seed, as 
when cleaned, none but an expert can detect It from 
some other variety, and the desire to speculate may 
induce some to mislead by selling other seed as Or¬ 
ange. It was for this reason that I had placed this 
seed in reliable hands last season for cultivation, in 
order to secure reliably pure seed for my trade.
