Of leaving the city for a week or a month's visit during the summer without ordering the DAILY REPUBLICAN. It will cost you but 6 cents a week or 25 cents a month, and keep you thoroughly posted on the city and ceunty news and also give you a complete resume of State, national and foreign news.

WEATHER FORECAST

Showers in South and Fair North Portion tonight Saturday fair.

THERE is some talk of cutting down all the shade trees in the court house yard. If such is not absolutely necessary it should not be done. Trees and shade are not only ornamental to a town but they are decidedly beneficial. A generation has passed away since those trees were set out. They are beautiful and useful and it does appear that it would be a shame and little less than an outrage on the public to cut them down. Many towns pass ordinances requiring trees to be planted or set out. Many others make provisions for parks. The officers of Greenfield have not done anything in this line but it is only a matter of time until it is done, and it does seem that the people should protest against the fine shade trees in the court house yard being cut down and removed.

On Friday night, May 22, the Greenfield Dramatic Club will present the roaring farce comedy "The Private Secretary." The play will be given for the benefit of the "Eastern Star." The proceeds will be used to assist in furnishing a room in the new Masonic Temple. The play is a very funny one and in the hands of the Club will no doubt receive excellent, treatment. Prices 25 and 35 cents.

Summer Homes.

In the Lake regions of Wisconsin, Northern Michigan, Minnesota,Iowa and Dakota, there ^are hundreds of ^charming localities pre-eminently fitted for summer homes. Nearly all are located on or near lakes which have not been fished out.

These resorts are easily reached by railway and range in variety from the "full dress for dinner" to the flannel-shirt cos tume for every meal. Among the list are names ^familiar to many of our readers as the perfection of Nothern summer resort.

Nearly all of the Wisconsin points of interest are within a short distance from Chicago or Milwaukee, and none of them are so far away from the "busy marts of civilization" that they cannot be reached in a few hours of travel, by frequent trains over the finest road in the northwest— the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway. A description of the principal resorts, with list of summer hotels and boarding houses, and rates for board will be sent free on. application to Robt. C.

Medical Writers.

The best medical writers claim that the successful remedy for nasal catarrh must be non-irritating, easy of application, and one that will, by its own action reach all the remote sores and ulcerated surfaces. The history of the efforts to treat catarrh during the past few years proves that only one remedy has met these conditions, and that is Century Catarrh Cure. This safe and pleasant remedy ha9 mastered Catarrh as nothing else has ever done, and both physicians and surgeons concede this fact. The most distressing symptons yield to it.
