(i,

Shryer Bros., who recently bought the stock of L. M. Cook fe Son, are removing their own stock of hardware to the Cook building. They are making number of improvements in the ar rangement of the store, and in the course of a couple of weeks will have one of the handsomest and most complete establishments of the kind in the coun try. They do an exclusively wholesale business and have a line trade.

ITS GETTING HOT!

THE UPRIGHT GRAND. Tms is the name of Chickering's popular new piano. It is bound to become the most popular instrument in the country. The form, finish, tone, and everything about it, commend it to all who see it. Messrs, W. H. Paige & Co control its sale in Terre Haute and it is meeting with great favor. If you are considering the matter of buying a piano we would advise a visit to the house named, feeling confident it will be for your advantage.

AL WAYS AHEAD.

Howe »& Stoner are indisputably the most competent and enterprising hat dealers that have ever done business in Terre Haute. Their stock is at all times more varied and strictly first-class and they can be relied on for having the latest styles as fast as they appear in New York and generally a few days earlier than any of their competitors. Just at present they are exhibiting some most beautiful goods, and selling at prices that will be found satisfactory.

LOVELY WOMAN

Will find tho Trimming Store just as attractive as ever if not more so. One thousand and op*-1 things have been received sinoe ^t issue of this paper, and there is no more beautiful store in the State. Ladies who keep the run of styles and prices know that T, H. Riddle always offers more inducements to bis trade than any merchant in the business. Don't neglect the Trimming Store if you would always be exactly suited.

FIX UP THE HOME.

All over town there is a very praiseworthy movement in the way of improving painting and ornamentation of dwelling houses, of door yards, fences and sidewalks. If any readers of Tho Mail want the services of a good painter our sdvioe is to call on J. W. Roberts, under Dickhout's trunk factory, on Main street, west of the Terra Haute House. He gives personal supervision to all work, employs the best painters, uses good stock, and his prices are so low thst other painters in town diili|w to come in competition with him.

COULDN'T FOOL THE OLD WOMAN.** If S. W. Rippetoe didn't keep the stock to back It, It would never do for him to advertise as be does. When be comes out in The Mail and claims to have every delicacy thst the market affords, ss well as the very finest of everything else In the grocery line and all at the lowest possible prices, he is making a tolerably pretentions claim and If it was not absolutely a fhet the public' would soon hear of It and confidence in the man be destroyed. But Rippetoe knows what he Is doing and means what he says. Ills groceries are the leading establishments of the kind In the city and ahead of any other. What you can't get at Rippetoe's you cant get at all in Terre Haute and it ia the beat place in the town to trade.

STYLE WITHOUT END. Miller A Arleth, Fourth street, be* tween Main and Ohio,* keep the most stylish saddles, harness, lap robes, horse covers, eto., to be found In the city. If you want to see something fine, give them a call.

HE WAS A STRANGER,

But he had heard that Froeb A Fssig, No. 64 Main street, sold better harness for the money tbsn any other dealers in Terre Haute, and he went there and found be hadn't been deoeived. Go thou and do likewise,

IN FULL BLAST!

Scudder's Ice Cream parlor—the most cspacious and elegant in tho city, is now in full l}lsst, and thronged with the hundreds of patrons who year after year have sought that place for the excellent ice cream for which Scudder is noted Drop in there this evening and try dish of the delicious and cooling bev erage.
