ing ordered the setting of trees in the
town or court house park. The trees
are to be set in rows from each of the
four corners and from the middle on

revolving cross on the plan Of the old

Regular gates and stiles are inconven-
lent and always getting ont of repair.

A Worthington landlord had some
cards printed at the ADVANCE Office
and sent them careering around the
globe. One of them brought up in Can

at that hotel in Worthington and pro-

clear across the line and lodged him in
our midst. MORAL.-Well, anybody
can see that.
