J. II. 1'outclass, itio hatter, No. 4(Xi Main street, got in yesterday a largo stock of Silk Hats, of the latest shape. Other new and fashionable styles are coming in daily. ||,

Alexander A Co. find It almost impossible to keep their patrons supplied with their select brand of oyster*. They will have 5a a big lot to day in response to a telegram sent Thursday.

There is an important advantage In buying oysters of a house like Kd. W. Johnson A Co's. The bivalves are reoeived fresh every day and you run no risk of getting any but good ones.

Winter is coming on, soon the roads will be bad, and you will want more substantial harness or the old harness repaired or, perhaps, a new saddle. If so, go to Kroeb A Fasig's, No. 01 Main street. They will treat you right.

Howe A Stoner display in their window as fine a selection of hats as ever shows in this city.

It's on tho south side of Main street, east of Fifth.

For every evil under tho sun Ttmro l«"s remedy, or there Is none If then? b« one, try and flntl It If there no none, never mind It." There is a remedy for ill-fitting clothes, and that is found in patronizing such an establishment as Phil. Schloss' who just now is pushed to his utmost to fill the orders that aro dally entered upon his books. Drop in and see his goods, have a pleasant talk, and learn his prices.

J. It. Chambers, tho popular groceryman, on Sixth street, opposito the postofllce, is highly satisfied with his new departure in selling strictly for cash— and so aro his customers, for they get the benefit of tho reductions ho is thus able to make in prices.

Right dress!" is a military order, as many of our readers who served In the war ussy remember. But whatever order may have prevailed during that exciting period in our national history, no gentleman can be considered in the right dress now-a-daj-s who doesn't buy his clothes of Brennan. the Ohio street tailor. Ortain it is that nowhere else will lie llnd bettor goods or lower prices.

(J. Foster Smith—how familiar that name is to every man, woman and rhild hereabouts—but better known Is it to the old settlers," the substantial citizens, who year in and yoar out go to him for their stoves and tinware, confident of just and honorable dealing. His establishment. on the north side of Main, be tween Fifth and Sixth streets, is just now well stocked with the best patterns of heating and oooking stoves, and sold at price* that must bo satisfactory.

How soon a man becomes suspicious of his wife's judgment if she asks him for a little money. Perhaps he wouldn't be if informed that sho was discreet enough to buy all of her millinery goods at the Bankrupt Millinery Store, on Main street, just west of Third. Ladle* go down and look at their Collarettes and Ituchee from five cents up—in mourning and second mourning. They have a splendid line of neck wear, and are celling Indies'Underwear at cost.

The two leading musical instruments In this region aro the Chickering piano and Mason A Hamlin organ. Messrs. Paige A Co. keep these and other instruments and all the various article* of musical merchandise usually fbuml in a first class music house. They are an old reliable firm, having been engaged In selling pianos, Ac. several years, and In all that time hare con* dueled their btudoem en honorably and conscientiously that no man has ever heard of a solitary complaint against them. Thev deserve, and have, the jHibtie confldenee.

Nothing succeeds like ««««." At tbo time T. H. Riddle embarked In the jewelry bust news, men were not wanting who shook their heads and predicted his failure. They said, "Oh, yo*. he baa I teen very raceMribl in all be has heretofore undertaken, but this is out of his line and will be too much for him— there's too much competition." How tboeo wise old head* were mistaken. Instead of the jewelry business breaking him be has with characteristic nerve taken hie plan at the head or the trade —clear above competition. He keep* the twwi stock, the finest workmen and sell* an muoh as any two of the others, and this is the way

IIow Patrick proposes to got over his single blessedness—by proposing to Uridgo-it. A very pleasant way surely. A pleasant way of getting over these bard times is by buying your boots aad shoes at J.

Whoever wants pictures of himself or his friends, wants the best that can be made, and It Is doing such a person a favor to remind him who makes the best.

lliddle's Trimming Store is a more than usually interesting place to the ladies this fall, there aro so many new things and thoso who have not been to tbe store within the last two weeks should pay it a visit at once. There are very few towns the size of this that can boast of an establishment like tbe Trimming Store, and it sheuld be well patronized.

If we wore asked, "Where shall I go to get a good horse and buggy and be certain of getting what I want without having to pay two prices for it when I get back we should answer at once. "Go to Burgan A Mllligan, on Third street, between Ohio and^ Walnut they are just the kind of men you are looking for. They are reliable, honest men, keep a first class stable ana tbe best of stock, and will treat you right." We oould conscientiously say this.
