One

Ibe most desirable ancf pleasant

places to trade when in want of supplies for the table and household is Barbour A Greenough's, southwest corner of Fourth and Cherry streets. Their goods always look neat and clean, and the proprietors and clerks are so obliging and clever to all, that one call is certain to insure another. Drop in there for the truth of this itiAn when in want of something to eat.

This is show day, and vast throngs are crowding the Hippodrome. Speaking of shows Scott & Huston, the successors of S. C. Scott, show the people who throng their establishment a fine stock of boots and shoes, of every style and quality, for pien, women, boys, girls, children and babies. They are just starting in business, and to build up and hold trade are satisfied with small profits.

Arthur Miliigan, at the Marble Front Grocery, on Fourth street, north of Cherry, is steadily growing in popularity and daily adding new patrons. Quiet and unassuming, he is constantly on the alert for the best the market affords, in the way of berries, fruits, vegetables, canned goods, fresh country produce and choice groceries. He will not be excelled. Good goods and low prices are what draw customers to tho Marble Front Grocery.

The people of Vigo county should know that D. C. Greiner, one of the candidates for the Legislature, is proprietor of a dry goods stere, on tho southwest corner of Fourth and Ohio streets. It is well stocked with everything usually found in a class dry goods establishment. Mr. rein or will be happy at all times to meet here Democrats as well, as Republicans, and we shouldn't be surprised if, to gain popularity and to secure votes,ho would w»ll go&us romarkablv cheap until after the election. Give a call and see.

Looking in to her lovely countenance and drawing hima -lf up to his full lordly dignity, be told her to state her request and it should be granted. Coming closer to his side she said in a whispering tone: "Oh, Adam! they have got such beautiful Hair goods at Riddle's, over at the City of the Prairie, and I would like to buy myself a switch." Mr. Adam thrust his hand into his pocket, pulled out a ten dollar greenback—and handed it to Mrs. Adam saying: Go and buy what thou wilt with this scrip and let the flat go over the whole earth, that henceforth my descendant* shall buy their switches, curls and hair goods of every description at Terre Haute Riddle's,

If those of our citizens who are so fortunate as to be able to seek health and pleasure at the watering places, will call at Buntin Armstrong's, before starting, they will lie pretty sure to find something in the large and elegant stock of Toilet .u oods just received, comprising combs, 11rushes, hand-mirrors, Wicker covered llaslcs, and soaps, bath gloves and towi and fine .colognes, and imported ort'uuieries—that they want to complet the o-.i.Jt for their trip.

Riddle says that in Jewelry, Watches, etc., he shows prices as low, if not lower then those who do more blowing. His stock is full, and while others complain of dull times he has no cause for so doing. When people call, they seem to have mndo up their minds to buy, and when this is the case they cannot resist the attractiveness of his goods combined with his reasonable prices.
