shall order notice to be given by advertisement in such
newspaper or newspapers as the court may direct, warning
all persons interested in the property sold to be and appear
in said court by a certain day to be named in said order, to

case his proceedings shall be in all particulars similar to

may have been sold, and all subsequent taxes thereon then
in arrears, with interest on the same, according to law; and
no sale made under the provisions of this Act shall be set
aside if the provisions of law shall appear to have been
