About this time many persons are
making up packages of holiday pres
ents to send by express to their friends.
1t is good precaution, almost an en-
sential one, to mark such packages
legibly, and to specify in plain letters
and figures the name, with the street
and residence number, II the recipient
lives in city or large town. Don't be
afraid of making the direction too spe-
ci3o or too legible.
Read the advertisements in both
the regular edition and the Supple
ment. 1t is good business habit
to advertise what you have to- sell,
and to read what other people want
you to buy.
We deeply regret the contin ued attic
ton Of Mr.. Espey, the popular host Of
the Worthlngton Hotel. He has been
suffering from a tumor, on which a
surgical operation was performed on
Monday last by DR.. Barber, of Worth
ington, and DR.. Green, of Window.
Mr.. Espey has the sympathy of many
friends, and we hope soon to record his
convalescence.
Rev. F. L. Fisk visited Round Lake
on last Sunday afternoon and held a
religious service at the new school

instituted and bids fair to be we'll sus-

is indebted to Mr.. Fisk for the pleasure
of the trip to Round Lake, and Of par
ticipation in the meeting.
We fold in every paper we send
