MISS RARIDON'S OPENING.
Another Ornament to Terre-HaxUe.
Yesterday morning there was one proud and happy woman in this city. That was Miss M. A. Raridon. And well she might be for she was the pos sessor of by far the handsomest mill! nery establishment in the 8tate, surpassed by tew in the larger cities. The "Opening Day" had been announced— a beautifal day it was, too—and all day long troops of ladies flocked to the elegant establishment to witness the many rare beauties unfolded.
Of the mysteries and intricacies of feminine head adornments there displayed to admiring eyes we shall not attempt a description. Such a variety of styles and shapes, so elegant and beautiful, was never belore spread out before the ladieS of our city. It is pleasing to note that the bonnets are much larger this soason. Last year on account of the war in France, we missed the French flowers—here we have them in the greatest profusion—so natural and life-like as to give the appear ance of a vast conservatory of rate flowers and.plants.
As mentioned in the heading above, Miss Raridon's establishment is an ornament to Terre-Haute, another monument to the growing greatness aud beauty ot the Prairlo City, and while we feel proud of suchjan establishment, the success of this accomplished business woman is highly gratilying. Fourteen years ago she commenced an apprenticeship with Mrs. Child, formerly of this city then she was seven years with the late Mrs. Abbott. Five years ago, in a modest way, she commenced business on her own account. By industry .economy, good business sagacity, and sound discretion iu studying to please the varied and fanciful tastes of her patrons, she has prospered so that she is now in sole possession of the fine building where she is now located, and the rich and elegant stock of millinery goods therein exhibited.
The building makes a tine show from across tho street,especially in the'evening when brilliautly lighted. The magnificent stone front has an imposing appearance the laige plate glass show windows, filled with natural plants, the choicest of artificial flowers, bonnets, hats and ribbons the elegantly wrought counters and shelves, finished in ash and walnut, the handsome show cases of glass aud silver, full length mlrfors in gilded frames, and in the rear under a wide-spreading arch and upon a neatly carpeted floor, on tables aud stands, the endieRs variety of bonnets and hats, in all the latest designs, trimmed in ribbons and flowers, and beads and costly laces, all these form an enchanting scene well worthy of a visit.
y,
Miss Raridon has done an immense trade yesterday and .to-day, and many of the finest bonnets and hats have been taken away to be used to-morrow at the "gospel dress parade," but other hats and bonnets will tako their place as rapidly as thev cau be prepared from the large stock iu boxes and drawers.
Anew feature has been added in the way ol ladies' furnishing goods, nolions, fans, ties, bows, gloves, hair switches, real thread, aud costly laces, etc., the whole forming a most complete establishment, aud one that will command the attention of and be a great convenience to our ladies of taste and fashion.
AN Kt. Ell ANT RIG.
This morning T. II. Kiddle started out an elegant, artistically designed, aud well arranged sample wagon, for bis wholesale millinery establishment. The wagon is from the shops of Scott, Oron A Co., cost $350. and is a model for beauty, strength and comfort. In the rear of the seat are placed those two immense trunks, recently manufactured by Dickhout, the largest ever constructed in the State, and which, while sitting on the sidewalk hive been mistaken for Pulman Palace irs. Riddle's traveling rig will command, attention, admiration and custom in our neighbor towns.

He spreads on the fat and sticks it to the ribs in regular layers and strata. Tue Yankee Kitchen to open for business.
