There is a great deal OF complaint
among the patrons OF the Fairmont

because the Monongah cars do not
make a stop at the corner of jack

he refuses to do So We can see. no

The ORANGE Tree.

The orange treo is regarded as n
prince among trees and the emblem OF
genius. a popularity OF this tree is
that 1t bears fruit and flower at Id
same time; its leaves are evergreen
and as IT grows older il grows in
beauty and fruitfulness, it's blossom
filling the air with It's fragrance. II
is indeed a fit emblem of marriage
promise and hopes. The orange tree
is considered typical of love, because,
though its fruit is golden and its flavor
and scent delicious. its rind is bitter.
And as every one knows who has ex.
perienced it Cupid's dart causes pain.
The orange tree is emblematic OF graft.
tude as well as of genius and love.
