The attention of farmers and land buyers is directed to Messrs. Dalgety and Co.'s advertisement on another page of this issue. Mr. Oscar Ascho pays a fine .Tiburo to Miss Bessie Major's performance as Mistress Quickly in "The Merry Wires of Windsor," in saying that it is the best exposition of the role ho has ever seen. Miss Major (who is a sister of Mrs. Robert Brough and Miss Enna Temple) is, and always has been, a highly-talent-ed character actress, temperamentally buoyant, and never sparing herself in the least where special efforts are necessary to thoroughly encompass a character. Witness her Narjis in "Kismet," the old lady of the barge in. "Beauty and the Barge," and, further back still, her Sergeant in "The Amazons," her Madeleine in "A Villago Priest." What a deal of talent is aggregated in the three sisters mentioned.
