The Mail, with its superior typography, particularly shines irtor his finishing work.

1877—FEBRUARY

Considering the noise Babbitt is making over his soap just now his name ought to be changed to Blabbitt. But never mind as long as a man tells the truth there is no harm in his advertising and the more be does of it the better for him. But he must have a basis. Now there is Rlppetoe, for example. If lie didn't have what he advertises—two of the best and most complete family groceries in the West—it would be nonsense to say so. But he has everybody knows he has. His reputation "is made. He keeps a strictly first cfc stock and does business on the square.

The peoplo at large have lost all interest in the question, who shall be presi dent for the next four years. There is a clamor for aspeedy and peaceful settlement and a fair chance to buy all their books, stationery and fancy goods at Button A Hamilton's—who undoubtedly keep the finest variety of such of any other dealers in the city. For elegant stationery go to the "Central," where it is made the specialty.
