the pearl of great price the embodiment of all the virtues. The truth is told in the statement that no dealers in the west can offer better inducements for the purchase of reliable musical instruments, from the finest Pianos down, than W. H. Paige & Co., in Beaoh's block.
Miller & Arletb, in their new quarters, one door south of the old stand on south Fourth street, are making a specialty of the manufacture of hofae collars, at wholesale, and at prices which defy competition. This in addition to their large retail trade in Harness, Saddles, Bridles, Brushes, Trunks, Valises and other articles in these lines, all at the lowest living rates.
In the Singer Sewing Machine, sold by J. A. Marshall, in this city, at 76 Main street, the attachments for hemming, felling, braiding, binding, cording, gathering, tucking, embroidering, and so forth, are not only umerous, but now brought to great perfection. Those familiar with the old attachments only, for such purposes, might do well to examine those of most recent invention for construction, as applied to the New Family Machine.

When you desire to patronise an artist who thoroughly understands his profession, who will spend hours in your service in order that the fullest satisfaction may be given, who takes prid© In doing good work, and pleasing his patrons, go to p.

There Is a strlkingimprovomont in the manufacture of tobaooo in the past twenty-five years, and the boys of today can have ho idea of the hardship it was to learn to chew a'quarter of a century ago. How grateful the boys of today should be for their advantages." This is the observation of a gentleman who has been buying, his tobaooo and cigars at J. B. Lyne's, opposite the Terre-Hf u'/O Hons.*, which he jays is the best place is the city.

A man oalled atone of our shoe stores yesterday and vainly essayed to get on either number 11,18 or 18 shoes. The storekeeper then suggested that ho pat on a tbloner pair of stockings and try on the box." This didn't ooour at Noyes Andrews', for st that popular shoe bouse no one ever foils to be suited in site, quality, price or elegance of any kind of foot wear, whether boots, shoes or robbers, for men, women and ehlidren. And the pleasant feature is tbst sll are treated alike, whether old or young, rich or poor, Democrat, Republican or Granger. N. Andrews for boots and shoes all the time.
What 1a womanf—A gentleman once asked, "What Is woman?" when a married man replied, "She is an essay goodaeaa and grace in one volume, elegantly bound. Although it may dear, every man should have a copy it." We will only add that when man takes a wife be ahould buy family supplies at R. W. Rippetoe White Front, 153 Main street. Besides
a full stock of choice groceries and the best and freBbest country produce con stantly on hand, Mr. Rippetoe keeps hundreds of articles needed to set housekeeping. 0"
The race is uot unto the man, who .can the fastest run nor the battle to the people who shoot with the longest gun, but with the man who will take ouradvicd and buy hip fanii'y supplies in the way of groceries, country produce, poultry, canned goods, etc., of Milligau & Bond, the popular grocers on the east side of Fourth street, north of Cherry. •The home Insurance Company, of New York, during the year 1873, collected the largest lot of premiums, and paid the greatest tax in the state of Indiana, of any company doing business here. This is a magnificent showing, and fully exhibits the superior standing of this great oompany. Facts speak loudsr than words, and no one oan doubt that the great merits of the Home are appreciated by the people of tndi-' ana. Those who" patronize it get the full security for which they pay. Liberality, promptness, fair dealing and ample security are attributes of the Home. In every great crisis in which othor companies bave been torn and shaken and wrecked, the Home has ridden along triumphantly. "Its foundations are set upon a rock." The great Chicago and Boston fires brougb thousands of dollars of losses to it, but It paid them dollar for dollar and maintained Its plaoe at the h^ad of underwriting. The Home alwiysdoes what \t agrees to do. It offers indemnity from loss by fire at a reasonable rate, and if the loss comes the indemnity is as sure to follow as the day follows the night. Men who ate insured In the Home can rest securo in the satisfaction that if their property is burned, they will receive every cent of the Indemnity for whlcb they have paid. The vast business dono by it shows what a hold it has gained upon popular faitb and confidence. Iu this city C. E. HoePOBD Is the agent.
