The next day the girl presented herself at the school room, with her fingers in her mouth and her little bonnet swinging by the strings, and said to the teacher, "Miss ——, we've got a little baby at our bouse, but mother told me to toll you that it Isn't catchin'."

RIDDLE'S all the time, say the ladies, for everything in the way of trimmings, hosiery, gloves, laces, ribbons and handkerchiefs. He has an immense stock, recently selected in person with great care.

GENERAL GRANT says if he is re-elect ed in November he will order his ci gars from Scott ShoafF, on east Main street, near the canal. Hundreds of Scott ShoafTscustomers will commend Grant's resolution.

RIDDLE keeps both his jewelers busy on repairs, and show a rare and ex ceedingly fine stock of watches, jewel ry, silver plated ware, etc. Drop in and gaze upon the beauties^—the ^jew elry, not the jewelers. J11

THE trade in iarm wagons in thiscity has attained immense proportions since C. A. Power introduced the Fish Brothers wagon, one of the best now made. Ralph Lawrence, on North Fourth street, is the local agent for this city.

COME, oh, come with me," to Cook A Davis' elegant drug store on Ohio street, between Third and Fourth, for pure flavoring extracts, used in cooking, for pure drugs, toilet articles, paints, glass, and in fact, everything usually kept in a first-class drug estab lishment. Pure, fresh and cheap will be found all their goods.

Fou ready made clothing we are still of the opinion that nene can offer better inducements than John Kuppenheimer, at No. 118 Main street. He has been in the business so long, and so thoroughly understands the tastes of our people, that he carries but little old stock and his goods are always fresh and new— and then he sells so cheap.

WHAT'S the use of a man gurgling down fiery, poisonous, adulterated liquors, when pure whiskies can be had at J. B. Lyne's, opposite the Terre Haute House.

J. P. BRRNNAN

CO,, the merchant

tailors on Ohio street, are just in receipt of a nicrf lot of Coatings and yestIngs, which they are rapidly putting in shape for the personal adornment of their patrons, who, by the way, are daily increasing in number, drawn by the excellence of their goods, the good workmanship and the low prices.

OUR people are especially favored in this city with such an artist as D. H. Wright, whose photographic pictures will compare favorably with those of the best artists of the larger cities. Don't take our word for it, but visit his new, elegant and commodious gallery and see for yourselves. He makes a specialty of copying old pictures, and really improves on the original. ,,

As THE election day is near at hand and we know not which party will have to go up "salt creek," would it not be well for all parties to provide against the trip by going to Ryan's, corner Fourth and Ohio street. He has a large stock of boots and shoes, noti »ns, queensware, glassware, etc.,—at very low prices. Greenbacks and National Bank notes he takes at par.

"SHOO FLY, don't bodder me." is not so popular as it was at one time, bnt Xovse Andrews, at 141 Main street, is making the shoes fly livelier than ever, with bis low prices and good material., For anything in the line of boots or shoes for men, women or children, we say in all sincerity go to 141 Main street—which the same is Andrews'.

Yor may experience some difficulty in getting into the hardware store of A. G. Austin A Co., in the Deming Block, on account of the immense pile* of good* on shelves, on counters, on floors, in the doors, the windows, and every available space, but when once in you wiU find as complete a stock of hir0wars and this line of goods aa In any boose in the west. And in the apparent ooofoaion, a cloosr Impaction will ra* veal wiw, sjlsui and a tboroogb undsrstandlng ol the bosiness.

THB enterprising firm of Moore A Haggerty do not confine their operations to this city. They are now doing a large amount of tin and iron work at Greencastle. Tbey make this class of work a specialty, and offer special inducements in the way of low prices, promptness, and in the excellence at the material used.

TERRE-HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL. OCTOBER 5. 187*2.

RIPPETOK has a patent coffee grinder, pro bono publico.—[Gazette. Rippetoebas been continually getting something new for the benefit ot the public—indeed he is a great public benefactor—and whether this is generally known to have ben-a-fact-or not, certain it is that he is reaping his reward in the enjoyment of a trade second to no other grocer in the city..

ON Tuesday next the long agony will be over and then the candidates and everybody else will discover that Turner A Shillito's is the place to buy choice groceries, fresh country produce, all sorts of grain and feed, vegetables, fruits, canned goods, and in fact everything in a first-class grocery store will be found at Turner A Shillito's, corner of Main and Seventh streets.

FOREPAUGH'S Big Show will be here one week from Monday, but it will fail to make a more attractive show than can be found at S. R. Freeman's, under the National House, where can be seen a choice, well-selected stock of pure jewelry, elegant gold and silver watches, lockets, bracelets, chains, silver-plated ware, spectacles, etc., etc., and all goods will be lound just as represented.

THE people have hardly recovered from their astonishment at seeing the figures printed in The Mail last week, by Engles A Tutt, the Boot fc Shoe dealers, opposite the Opera House, You will remember that they said they were selling Men's Kip Boots for |2,75 Women's Shoes for $1,50, and Children's Shoes for $1,00. Complaints of hard times should cease in, view of these figures.

HAVE you been in the Central Bookstore lately. If not, call there the first time you come down town. The ladles especially will find the visit interesting. Just walk in and look around, whetheryou want to purchase anything or not. Perhaps you will not want any thing when you go in, but you will at ter you look at the many beautiful things, useful as well as ornamental, else we miss our guess.

A CALIFORNIA man can walk twenty seven miles in a straight line without going off his own property. So can we, we bought our shoes and paid for their, at No. 10 South Fourth street, where the "knowing" people go for their cheap boots and shoes. We have learn ed the secret of their selling so cheap. It is because they buy for cash, have no rent to pay, expenses are small, and they are willing to let their customers have the benefit.

THE man who says "I'm saddest when I sing," is a fool to sing at all but the man who Duys his family sup plies at the popular grocery store of White A Melvin, in the Cook building, corner of Fourth and Cherry streets, is sensible and all the time happy. So his wife and children say, and they are happy too. Even his horse and cow, if he owns sucb, will be happy if he buys feed there.

THERE are two questions which above all others make or mar the comfort and happiness of home. These are the manner in which houses are warmed, and the right kind of a stove for baking and cooking. Both these questions can be satisfactorily arranged, by consulting R. L. Ball, the well-known stove dealer, who, never before was better prepared to please his customers with the very besl stoves in the market.

THE leaf of the tea plant when dried on Copper plates makes either Young Hyson, Gunpowder or Imperial—when dried on Iron plates you have either Oolong or Shouchang. Japan tea is cured-upon Porcelain plates hence, it has the natural color of the leaf. Tuttle sells all of these varieties, and gets them fresh and pure in the original packages, and sells them 15 cents a pound less than they were sold before the 1st July last.

FARMERS, when you come to town, bear ia mind that Cory A Co's extensive establishment, fronting on Main and Fifth streets, is headquarters for all kinds of hardware, tools, axes, nails, and all kinds of implements used by formers, that are to be found in a complete hardware store. Their line of builders' hardware is very full and complete, and in this line they are doing a very l*rge trade.

PLAWCHKTTE is a mystery. We tried it the other night. Being a seeker of practical information, we asked "Where Is the'best place to get clothing?" '*.«*

Answer—(promptly) "At No. 79 Main street. "Do you mean Bannister's
