Flower, of 270 Harbor street, Glencoe, emulating the "Father of his Country," and on the annivers- ary month of that illugtrious one's birth, too, chopped down a tree. But it was Sunday, and the tree fell on his foot crushing one of his toes. Mr. Flower was confined to his home a few days and finally, when he did get out, could walk only with great difficulty, for some time. Illinois has tne fewest divorces per capita of states east of the Mississippi River.
