TERRE HAtJTE SATtfRDa1T EVENING- MAIL.
We have often made the assertion that there was a positive advantage to oonsumers In baying their vegetables and fruit of a first clsss establishment like Rlppetoe's, instead of to the market and It Is easily proven. In the first plaoe Rippetoe Is known to gardeners and fruit growers all over the country. He haa an Immense retail trade and doeaoonatderable Jobbing to other d«al era. He buys In large quantities—will take a man's whole crop if desirable— and always pays cash. The beat these gardeners and fruit growers know this and prefer selling to him to taking tbe trouble of peddling out their crops in the market. Consequently he gets the •ery best of everything that is raised and retails It at reasonable prioes. One can always buy of Rippetoe for little lower prioes than the like articles are sold for by the marketers. In ad dltlon to this the buyer has the satisfaction of knowing that if tbe artidea purohased do not prove as good as repre sented, that Rippetoe will make that right. And then whatever. one buys promptly delivered at his house free of charge, and this is a big point with those who dislike to "tote" a great market basket home every morning, In short, buy everything at Rippetoe and you will live long and be happy
With the temperature at a point which renders life a burden the huge parties and receptions so common throughout our brilliant winter season are of course not to be thought of. But there are dozens of cosy little receptions, picnics, and lawn parties which, when properly managed, are even more enjoyable than the more pretentious social efforts, liu the proper management means a great deal. The refreshments •must bo delicate, of fine quality, and served in an irreproachable manner, W. H. Scudder seems to have reached point very near perfection in this mat ter and no wonder his services and famous list of ices and delicacies are such constant demand.
A man that wants, in these times, to sell his goods on time, is a national blessing and ought to be encouraged, "Now there is W. H. Paige A Co., as re liable men as can be found anywhere, offering to dispose of splendid Chicker ing pianos of the very newest make and Mason A Hamlin organs, the most perfect instruments of the kind in the world, on long payments, to good parties, at exactly manufacturers prices. If any of you have music in your souls and no instrument with which to give it expression, go at once to Paige A Co, and have your measure taken for piano or organ.
There is one well known establish ment in this city that' needs no com ments from vs. It is the "Central Book Store." But we can add that it is one of the most complete book stores this side of New York in feet, it is a Centennial exhibition In itself. The proprietors, Messrs. Button A Hamilton, are gentle men who can always be relied upon for courtesy in their dealings with sll who may favor them with their patronage, They keep in addition to books and stationery, all kinds of pictures, games, blank books and a thousand and one artldes in the "fancy" line.
Notwithstanding our familiarity with the characteristic enterprise of the proprietor, we confess to some astonish ment the other day when by acddent we dropped into the "Trimming Store." Such a magnificent assortment of ladies bonnets, bats, fancy trimmings and general ladies furnishing goods we have seldom seen. The color now so fashion able (cream) may be found there in all ita richness and unlimited variety. We cheerfully recommeud all our lady readers to the "Trimming Store."
With their usual generosity White A Mewhinney have concluded to give a gold watch and chain with each pound of candy sold, but owing to the unsettled condition of politics will not begin until after tbe next Centennial. In the meantime, they will continue to sell the best quality of confectionery, fruit, nuts, Ao., at their customary low prices, and set the best lunch of sny establishment in Terre Haute.

This is good time to lsy In your winter's Jewelry. T. H. Riddle bss an elegant assortment of all the popular varieties, and will sell It by the car load or single bushel. Tbe prospect is that Jewelry is going to be very high and scarce next winter, snd we would sd vise sll oar readers to make their en gagements now.
The oontvast between tbe jaunty appearance of a fly before be gets Into tbe butter, snd bis crestfhllen aspect as be crawls out, bss been generally noticed we believe. The contrast between tbe man who buys bis dotbes of J. P. Brennan and one who buys them ready made at a slopshop, is equally noticeable.

Wharton, Riddle A Co. inform us that all policies written by them as agents of the Phenix Insurance Company, of Brooklyn, contain what is called "lightning clause." There is a point in this which should be well understood and which should make the Phenix fevorite, espedally with farmer?. In tbe ordinary companies it the building insured Is struck by lightning and does not burn, no damages are paid. In the Phenix all damages are paid, no matter matter whether it burns or not. Live stock Injured by lightning anywhere on the premises, are also insured. This is something that few companies do.
