throwing away money but sad was
his fate; his business finally waned
out and no other remedy was sought
than 10 advertise but the al was set
in nonpareil and was headed ''Sherifl
Sale"
A reception was rendered F. Her.
ron, Chas. Covey and families by the
A. 0. U. w. at their hall Saturday
night. Mr.. Heron expects to leave
for Los Angles, CAL, for permanent
location. His wife will visit at St.
Louis until he gets situated. Mr..
Covey and family will move to the
northern part Of the state about the
same time in the vicinity of Still
" ter.
Now is the time for merchants to
advertise their seasonable goods
There is no better advertising medium
than tue ADVANCE. the largest circula'
ton and the most extensive read pa
per in this part of the county. TO
secure good results from advertising
place it early with paper that reach,
es the people before the close of the
week when they are in town to do
their trading.
The following from the St. Paul
Dispatch: ''Nobles county was the
first this year to file it's abstract Of the
November settlement with the state
auditor The statement arrived this
morning. This breaks the record, as
heretofore it has been the exclusive
province of the auditor Of Nicollet
county to make the first return"
This reflects great credit on the ef
fcency Of Mr. Kendlen and his assist
ants.
Saturday nj ght we reckoned it was
Halloween and by all appear noes
Sunday morning the event was c:Ie-
brated in hilarious fashion but AS far
as actual destruction of property is
concerned Worthington suffered no
thing though it was favorable night
for the small boy to turn to his mis-
chief as fair Luna fingered behind
the dark clouds that hey may play
! Their pranks conceal.u in the dark
ness. The big boys, of course, W, re
out and took their turns at tipping
a few of the small buildings over and
decorated the front Of several Of The
business houses with objects too
numerous to mention still they did
we'll not to destroy anything.
IT'S said this occasion is set apart
for the walking abroad of spirits and
that mystic occuranccs prevail on
that night as we have b~Aen told that
a young lady, holding Il mirror in one
hand and a candle in the other going
down cellar at the midnight hour, will
see the face of her future husband. {. if
her fate is such, peering over her left
shoulder into the glass. It is impos-
sible for us to know how many of our
Worthington girls took advantage of
this opportunity but we feel assured
that very few Of them will need to
fear the name "Old Maid"
