To the People of and Vicinity.

GREETING. The election is now as the World’s Fair numbered with things that are past. But say? What of the long weary evenings which are approaching as fast as the car of time can carry them. The question of most importance that comes up in connection with this thought is, “What shall I do that 1 may gain the most benefit; and have them pass the least burdensome.” The desession of past ages, is that reading, or the exercise of our musical talents are the most beneficial because by so doing we gain the golden fruit of intelligence which only the superhuman power can deprive us of. We are prepared to furnish you with any books, magazines or newspapers published in this and foreign countries, in any language, at prices that will entirely please you.

We also make some very special offers on tea and coffee. Ours is also the exalted privilege of supplying the public with W. W. Thomas’ pure oil complexion soap. And unto those who are weary and would rest, we have that which will give you rest, unto the uttermost, in the form of Laudemen’s Bros, new adjustable bed springs, for which we are- the sole agents for this county. Stepping over as it were the 10,000 grand bargains we are enabled to make you; we will close for this time, close with making an earnest appeal unto the kings and queens of the farm, entreating with them to get our prices on poultry, eggs and butter before contracting elsewhere. We extend a most sincere and hearty invitation to the public to investigate our lines and modes of business. Trusting that v T e may in the future sail happily together in the grand old ship of friendship, upon the deep waters of the sea of business, we would subscribe as yours most truly. For Specialties, Frederic R. Fielder & Co. Rensselaer, Ind. Office first door south of school house.
