At W. W. Byera' Book Store, on Main street, just east of Sixth, may be found a number of handsome and appropriate articles for holiday preaentation. Among three may be mentioned tine Writing Desks, fine Work Boxes, Juvenile Books, elegant Papeteries and (JpW Pens.

We take pleasure in calling attention to tbe attractive list of Holiday Goods published by Buntin A Armstrong in another column. Headei*, we imagine, will be surprised to Jlud that a Drug Store oontains so many things which It would be pleasant to fake.

White A Mewhinney, wholesale and retail dealers in Toy*, Confectionery N uta, Fruits, and general holiday goods, are now ready for orders of any site Their stock I* full and complete and they invite an inspection of goods and a comparison of their prices wiUi the prioea of other bouses in the nauie line.

This is tbe mason of the year when Lap Robes, Blankets and Heavy liar ness are In demand and, as has been stated heretofore, Froeb A Kasig, of No. 61 Main street bavo a full line. They kwp also Saddles, Whips, and in fact everything usually kept lu a strictly first-class harness store, and sell at the most reasonable prices.,

Have you considered tbe matter of preaentlng her (or him) with a handsomely framed photograph of yourself? We sincerely bellevo that hardly any other article would be so acceptable. A picture of a dear friend Is something one never tires of and something which grows more valuable with time. Bo sensible now, and go to D. II. Wright's at once, and get a picture.

Our mention last week that Miller A Arleth had a stock of buffalo robes, caused such a run on tbe establishment as speedily cleansed it out of that line of goods but they have yet an immense stock of other kind or lap robes and blankets and will be able to supply the demand for some time. With a reputation for good goods and square dealing, they have no trouble about selling.

Have you made yoor selection of hoi Iday presents yet? Do not put it off too long. T. H. Riddle has an immense stock of handsome jewelry but it is going off like hot cakes, and if you want the advantage of an early choice from among tbe beautiful things he displays this season, you must hurry up. Of course it is well understood in this community that Riddle's prices are always reasonable and his goods reliable.

In this holiday season do not forget tho music hous s. There is W. II. Paige A Co. proprietors of the leading establishment of the kind In this portion of Indians. They keep a full line of musical merchandise and sell on as favorable terms as any dealer In tho country. They have the exclusive control in this city of the best makes of pianos and organs (the "Cblckering" and tho "Mason A Hamlin," for instance) and sell at manufacturers prices, Hive tUem a call. "Tho Central"- is headquarters for many things besides books and stationery. For elegant holiday goods of in numerable kinds, there is no more satisfactory place in the city. Drop thero and take a look at the pictures. Examine some of the beautiful new books just received. Ixxk over tho stock and through the show-cases, and we imagine you will find it less difficult to make selections of appropriate and tasteful holiday presents than you thiuk.

Howe A Stoner's Is THE first-class hat store of this city, and it would be a credit to any other city, for the proprietors know enough about first-class trade to appreciate tbe fact that it wants first-class goods and will have no other. You don't find thom buying a great pile of goods one day and tboa sitting down to wait for three months till tboy are all sold before buying again. Tbey get in goods every day—buy in small lots bat often—and have averything sent to them by tbe fastest express, a* a consequence, tbey are up with tbe styles, all tha ttma.

If yoa are fond of curiosities make a visit to Scudder's and see bis magnificent display of toya and other holiday goods. Nothing like it in extant or variety has ever been aeen in Terra Haote before, and it is doubtful If it can be equaled in the State. Don't think of making a single purobaae until after you have Sean it, becauae if you do, and then go Into Scudder's afterwards there are ten chancoa to one that yoa will regret it. And an early visit ia recommended for the reason that tbe stock ia now fall and complete, and the big rush will hardly begin before next weak. Yon should endeavor to go before that takes place.

Have yon made the selections yet tor tbe Sunday dinner? If yoa have not, go to Rippetoe's at once before all those good things, which were displayed there only a few boon ago, are gone. If yon do not bay of Rlppetoe regularly allow one who knowa whereof he speaks, to that yon make a mistake. There ia no other grocery hattae in Terre Haute that makea, or preteods to make, any attempt at competition with him. He buy* everything In the eatable line that is going, knowing well that aomebody will buy It of him, and thai prices will ha no object. At his atore yovtaea alwaya aee everything that there Is in town that to goad to eat, and can makea choice that ia ten times mora satisfactory than if yoa had gone to a one botes place and taken what they had to aelL Prices at Rippetoe's are no higher than at other plans. Indeed tbey are generally lower.
