Administrators and Executors, and those who have the advertising for estates will do a special favor for the Proorebs if they will always insist upon the advertising (which is required by law) to be done in the Progress. Rates are always reasonable. A Card op Thanks. Mrs. Jacob Bunger desires to thank her many friends for their kindness and sympathy during the long years of Mr. Hunger s Buttering. They are tearing holes in great iren cylinders, driving together immense oak frames, and casting immense wheels at the Seward foundry and machine shop, for stone quarry powers. A new boring machine has just been put into service that sends the bits through iron just as easily as a hot knife goes through butter apparently. The Progress is pleased to notice that our own citizens are profiting by the developraunt of the stone interests, and wo hope that the business of Seward Bros, may increase each yenr. They put up honest, solid work, and use great care in turning out machinery. Bloomington now has "oolitic stone headquarters," in the building just east of Chas. H. McPbeeters' grocery store. Dr. McGee and Geo. Bollenbacher have reuted a room there and will make it headquarters for that business. The s one business has assumed such proportions iu Monroe county, that this arrangement will be of great advantage to those interested in this product. Esquire Louden has beortme the fashionable marriagist if that j ia a good term. Every few days he is called upon to tie the easily untied knot for anxious would-be married people, and he does it as coul v and indifferently as he mounts his Union No. 12, which, by the way, he is agent for. Cheaper to own a wheel than to get married, so call on Mr. Louden when you feel like purchiisiug.

The College Club will use this room, and it will be found a very convenient and pleas ant resort during the campaign. . -:The Collins & Karsell mill is being still further improved by an additional story.
