LOCAL AND PERSONAL.

MONEY is now worth ten per cent, and hard to get at that. Those who wish to invest money with any assurance that they will get its return value in goods, should purchase their clothat W. H. Bannister's where can be found such elegant,serviceable and low priced piece goods. By keeping the stock constantly replenished, Mr. Bannister always shows a satisfactory lot of goods and seldom fails to give satisfaction. Most of his customers deal with him year after year,and he knows just what they want. c|0*§

H. M. DOWNING, a druggist of Allegan, Michigan, made a mistake in putting up prescriptions the other day, by which a little child of Ira Davidson lost bis life. All Buch mistakes can be avoided by taking your prescriptions to a competent druggist. Such can be found at the establishment of Cook & Davis. Mr. Cook has been in the busines fourteen years and Mr. Davis twenty years, and, of course understand the druggist's art in every departraent. kVMr"-*

READER, we say to you all sincerity that if you want cheap and excellent family groceries you cannot do better than call at the popnlar grocery store of White fc Molvin, southwest corner of Fourth and Cherry streets. You will find there the choicest groceries, the ireshest country produce, fruit of all kinds in season, and grain and feed for horses and cattle, all of which will be delivered in any part of tho city free of charge.

AMONG other things to be found at Bartlett & Co's two Main street book stores is a large stock of blank books, of all kinds, purchased previous to the late advance in these goods, and which will be sold at correspondingly low figures. You can find also the genuine Colgate soaps,a nico line of photograph albums, gold pens very cheap, Briggs' glass marking pen,and if you get paper and envelopes of them your initial will bo stamped thereon without charge.

A HINT.—Time, night several stars winking knowingly. Youth and Maiden leaning o^er a gate and looking "itply." Maiden, with enthusiasm, pointing a taper finger toward the zenite, exclaims, "Oh, Harry, isn't jewelry boautiful?" Harry took the hint, and was seen the next morning at S. R. Froeman's, under the National House, in a quandary what to select lroin the great variety of jewelry there on exhibition.

ONE hundred families aro about to start from Hamburg and Bremen to settle somewhere in Texas. But that has nothiug to do with the hundreds of heads of families who daily leave their homes to take advantage of the low price at which George A. Hayward ft Co., at No. 30 South Fourth street, ofoffer dry goods, notions, boots and shoes, queensware, glassware, furniture and everything noeded for housekeeping.

HERB'S another evidence of Rlppetoe's enterprise. The Gazette says: "Rippetoe received the first and finest potatoes of the season, Saturday. They were produced by E. J. Brown, of this county, who is certainly an expert in fruit and vegetable growing. In consequenceof Mr. Brown's perfection in his line[of business, Mr. Rippetoe cultivates his intimate business acquaintance, hence he has the first of the season in B's line all the while."

IF Horace Greeley is the nominee of iho Baltimore convention, the coming presidential campaign promises to be a lively one. And the result will be told next November, when the votes arc counted. But you need not wait until that time to satisfy yourself that at No. 10, South Fourth street, Boots and aro being sold at remarkably low prices. The crowt^ of c^onieTji^aj iy attest this fact.

We've sung of heroes brave and good, Of wondering great and until But let us sing in praise of one

More worthy than tbem all, and that ia Tattle, of the New York Tea Store, who was so prompt to red noes the price of tea, when tho government tax was taken off.

LADIBB, have you been to Riddle's this week to look at the new and elegant lot of jewelry he has Just opened. He has an attractive assortment, besides fine watches and elegant ailver ware in varietv.

R. L. BALL wants it known that he has the finest stock of mantles and grates in tho city. He has marble mantles, all styles slat9 mantles, all stylos iron mantles, all styles slate hearths, all lengths, and fire bricks, the best in town. Just now he is making speciality of these goods and is offering some excellent bargains. If you don't want a mantel get one of his stoves on which he is offering such liberal inducements.

OUR people would be astonished to know the extent of business done by Moore fe Haggorty in the line of tin and slate roofing, guttering and spout ing, tin, sheet iron and copper work. They were among tho first to introduce in this city tho marbleized mantels and grates, which have become so popular, and of which they have now in stoie a good assortment.

SKIP for joy, like juvenile muttons or diminutive william goats. Shout glad hallajahs. Let valley and plain, rock, river and blackberry patch catch up the gladsome sound—repeat the blissful strain—that at N. Andrews, 141 Main street, can be found superior inducements for the purchase of boots and shoes, ready-made or made to order, for men, women and children.

THE motto "Economy is wealth," and "A penny saved is a penny earned," can be verified by purchasing your hardware at Cory fe Co.'s. Every farmer, every mechanic, every builder, every business man, manufacturer, man, woman or child who has dealt there, knows the truth of this statement, and it seems useless for us to add that no better or cheaper place can be found in the city. At

RING out, ye bells, your loud pealing anthems to the skies. Let the deep mouthed organs pour forth their thunderous harmonies. Sound the hewgag, strike the ton-jon, beat the fuzzyguzzy, wake tho gang-whong, let the loud hozanna ring to all men and boys that John Kuppenheimer has the best and cheapest stock of ready-made clothing and gents' furnishing goods to be found in tho city.

THE pleasantest things in the world aro pleasant thoughts, and the greatest art in life is to have as many of them as possible. It is a pleasant thought that when a good and pure article of Kentucky Whisky, Brandy, foreign and domestic Wino, Champaign or other liquor is wanted it can be found at J. B. Lyno's, opposite tho Terre-IIauto House, J~:

GENTLEMEX, have you been down to J. P. Brennan & Co.'s now merchant tailoring establishment, on Ohio street, near Fourth? You will find there a choice stock of elegant goods which they are ready to mako up in fashionable style. They have recently come among us and are willing to offer extra inducements to build up a trado.

A MAN hearing of another who was a hundred years old, said contemptuously "Pshaw! what a fuss about nothing Why, if my grandmother was alive sho would bo 150 years old, and liko tho rest of our family, she would buy her shoes at Englesfc Tutt's,whero the largest stock can bo found, and at prices which couldn't fail to give tho old lady satisfaction.

D. H. WRIGHT at his new Photographic Hall, has the model light of the West. By it he is perfectly independent of sunshino. It is especially adaptod for making Rembrandts, large groups and other stylos ol photographs. Ho has tho latest improved cameras, plenty of room, and being a truo artist it is no wondor that he turns out such fine pictures. i.**

A WESTERN MAN at a "prayer meeting" said somewhat enviously: "Brother Lawson can sing better than I can, but by tho graco of Heaven I can fiddle bis shirt off. Speaking of shirts reminds us that tho best aro Erlangor's Modol Shirt. They can be had at the Opera Houso Clothing Store, whoro the great clearance sale is now going on.

POLITICIANS aro now active in the canvass for their Presidential candidates, and bets aro being freely laid on the rosult of the next election. Bets are also freely laid that no better stock of cigars^and tobacco can bo found in the city than that shown by Duddleston Brothers in the Gilbert Block.. Kt

THERE is plenty to do in this world for every pair of hands placed upon it, and wo must so work that tho world will be richer because of our having lived in it. Peter Miller, in the Old Postofflco building, believes this ho works hard. All who buy bis harness, trunks and valises are the richer for it.

IT is an undeniable fact that no better wagons are manufactured in the West than tho Fish Eros' Farm Wagon, sold in this cUy by Ralph Lawrence, at Smyser & Milton's Warehouse, north Fourth street. 7 J.

CotcsfBrs discovered America, and the gentlemen of this city have discovered that the place to get a good cigar or a really excellent article of tobacco is at Scott Shoafl s, on east Main street near the canal.
