LOCAL AND PERSONAL.

WB agree with a statement in the Express that the most attractive show windows in the city are those of the Central Book Store, No. 159 Main street. As you aro passing take a glance at them and see what you think about it. Among the novelties presented to the eye are some beautiful ladies' beltsacliels, such as Nilsson wore. Fine steroscopic views, photographs, chromos, chess boards, alphabet blocks, brackets, chip baskets, stationery cases, bankers' cases, book carriers.call bells, blank books, pencil cases, pencils, pocket books, memorandum books, changeable picture blocks—making one hundred Junny pictures—paper, envelopes, etc., etc. The above are but an index to the stock within, all of which is to be sold at reasonable figures, and which every reader of The MtO is invited to call and examine.

I'm: record of deserved prosperity is always a nutter of sincere ploas- :?. In tlisse days of competition it requires unusual ability and the most indefatigable industry to achieve marked results. In every line of business we find tho same obstacles to surmount lor indications of succcss bring into tho field colaborers anxious to sharo jn the harvest. Among the number who have registered their names upon the roll of successful business men we desire to mention A. G. Austin A Co. Probably no branch of trade is so well In hand, or competition so active, as in that of Hardware, and that this young firm li:ts buiit up such an immense trade is really marvelous and aliko creditable to their business sagacity.

Is no department of our trade and manufactures has there been more enterprise manifested or ingenuity displayed than iu the invention and perfecting ol tlio various appliances for warming and ventilating houses and rendering tho homo duties of baking and cooking convenient and easy. A representative man in this department, and ono of the most honorable and progressive, is Rich ird L. Ball, whoso immense establishment on Main street is now stored with an infinite variety of tho best cooking and heating stoves in tlio market. Go to Bill's all the time for bargains in stoves.

MAORRKEIFC HUNTEI:, whose card appears prominently at the top of this pago have given us a separate and important branch of retail trado, and one that will prove a great convenience to gentlemen. We refer to their gents' furnishing house, ,f7 Main street, whoro is shown a very largo and fine stock of everything in this line. Messrs. Maguiro it Hunter aro late of .Indianapolis, formerly of Cincinnati cad Hew York, and have been "born rrd bred" to tho business, thoroughly caocrstanding it in all its details. C'EJI and see them, gentlemen they are dcccrring of your most liberal patronage, and wo wish them success.

ON, George, do buy me some elegant.jewelry exclaimed a young lady to her nowly married husband, while standing in lront ot a certain Main street jowelry store tho other day. "Yes, my dear," replied George, the sonslblo follow, "but not hero let us go to S. R. Freeman's, in tho National IIouso block, whero can be seen the most elegant stock ot jowelry, silverplated waro, gold and silver watches." A'.d arm in arm they lovingly wonded thoir way to Freeman's.

"KAI.I.Y round tho flag, boys! rally once again!" Bhoutiug loudly for White A Melvin and tho fresh and excellent family grocories and provisions, to be found ai their popular establishment, in the Cook building, southwest corner of Fourth and Cherry. They are determined to keep a complete stock office fresh good?, sell tho same at the lowest market rates, and thus givo perfect satisfaction to tluir numerous customers, llemomber the place and call there.

IN these days ot skillful financiering, everyone exercises his or her mind as to the most econQtnical mode of spending their money, and many ure the tiresome walks aoout town iu quest ot the "mostest goods for the leastest money." Hundreds of our friends may be itaved such wearisome walks by going to Kngles it Tutt's opposite the Opera House tor their Boots and $hoo*. They have a large stock, buy lor cash and can afford to sell low.

THE only thing necessary last week to collect a crowd on tbe street was to take a paper and pencil from your pocket and commence figuring. We saw one man at it. People thought he was figuring on election returns, and gathed around. But bo was figuring to see what he had saved by ordering a suit If clothes at J. P. Brennan it Co's, and the result so astonished tho crowd of gentleman, that Brennan it Co. have since been over run with orders.

IF you would always be ingood spirits •ud have good spirits in YOU use those to be had of James B. Lyne, wholesale dealer In liquors, opposite the Terre Haute House. His wines, brandies, gins, rums, and Pure old Kentucky Whiskies are admitted by competent judges to be unsurpassable. The reputation acquired by Mr. Lyne is widespread and well deserved, and the atUon given to customers extremely satisfactory.

"On what a beautiful mantel,1* exclaimed a lady yesterday at Moore it Ilaggerty's where may bo seen many roally elegant designs in marbleized mantels and grates. They will not be excelled in this line, either in quality or price. Moore it 11 agger ty are also promptly filling all orders for tin, copper and sheet iron work in tho working of which they have unsurpassed facilities.

THE defeated candidates and all other people can find balm for their disappointed hopes by purchasing their groceries, country produce, fruits, and vegetables at tho "Whito Front," 155 Main street. Democrat and Republican, the victor and the vanquished can thero clasp hands whilo Rippetoe and his corps of accommodating salesman fill their baskets with tho good things of this life.

MAKE home happy, and give a healthy tone to you appetite, not by purchasing villainous drugs and quack nostrums, but by purcbaslng, wholesome groceries, fresh fruits, good country produce, the best canned goods, hams, dried beef, etc., at Turner it Shillito's, corner of Main and Seventh streets. From long acquaintance with producers of the country they have excellent facilities for supplying the table.

FARMKRS, when you come to town, bear i.i mind that Cory Co's extensive establishment, fronting on Main and Fifth streets, is headquarters for all kinds of hardware, tools, axes, nails, snd all kinds of* implements used by farmers, 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 large trade.

A POOR but pious young man apologised the other evening, while making a call, for tbe muddineas of his boots, saying be bad not taken a carriage, but bad "walked up with commendable economy." He was grieved when tbe lovely being whom he adores inquired why be dJdnt "ask Mr. Economy in." Stud/ Economy by buying your Boots and Shoes at If. Andrews, 141 Msin stmt......

"WHY is Mr. Greeley like a young sheep?" "Because Greeley chops and lamb chops!" Here is another conundrum "Why do so many people go to No. 10 South Fourth street for boots and shoes?" "Because they sell so cheap." "Why do they give such bargains?" "Because they havo no rent to pay, buy for cash and are satisfied with reasonable profits." 1
