THB best newspapers to advertise in are those papers which go into the household and are read by the whole family, The Saturday Evening Mail is emphatically a paper for the family circle and hence as an advertising medium is worth more to the merchant or general dealer than a paper hastily read in the business houses—solely for th« news of the day and then cast aside. $$

KEW J)KPA TtJRK IN THK MILLINERY TRADE. It is a well known fact that Millinery Goods as sold on t|ae old plan—100 to 200 per cent, profit, is ruinous to purchasers. Every lady knowfc when buying a hat or bonnet, she pays at least SO per cent, more for it in proportion than for any other article of Ladies' Goods. Why is this?

Milliners say their business lasts only six months out of twelve, hence* they must m»ke enormous profits in order to bridge over the long dull months. This Is true. I have had many years' experience in Millinery and know whereof I speak. In order to be able to sell Millinery Goods at a fair and reasonable profit, I have added a department for Ladies' Furnishing Goods, which sell twelve months in the year. I commenco with Spring suits, Cloaks and Shawls, Ties, Collars aud Cuffs, Corsets Underwear, Ruchings, Embroideries Hosiery, Kid Gloves, Ac., Ac.

NEW ALBANY, IXD., Feb. 25,1878. 2b Ike OtiiteM of Terre Hauic, IiuL Manjr of you are aware that I have lately introduced anew sewhur machine in your city, the White a machine that ia acknowledged by the finest machinists in our country, ana many of the most prominent of your city, as being the best and most durable4hat has ever been offered to the public. And as nearly all new improvements, inventions and discoveries which are of great public utility have been assailed by parties dealing in or adhering to the old, I was not surprised when I was recently informed by agent in your city Mr. J. N. Hickman, that the Singer firm of your city was telling the people that the White machine would soon wear out and that our insurance didn't amount to anything, as we were irresponsible parties! They perhaps may think it Christian fellowship to speak in that way of parties of whom they know nothing. For their benefit, and forthe interest' of the people of Vigo county^ who wish to buy the best sewing machine in the world for less money than any other first-class sewing machine can be bought for, I here give a few certificates of the most prominent citizens of New Albany, in regard to the respopsibility of myself and Mr. Hickman.

JONATHAN BKARD, SU

Dealer in the White Sewing Machine, New Albany, Ind

We, the undersigned, citizens of New Albany, take pleasure in saying to the public that Mr. Jonathan Beard is one of the most prominent farmers of Floyd county, is a man of means, and is perfectly reliable and responsible. Mr. James N. Hickman is a young man of unimpeachable character, and is a thorough business man.

Ben. F. Tuley, deputy clerk of Floyd county. Samuel W. Watts, cx-treasurer of Floyd county.

Wash. F. Fuderick, treasurer of Floyd county. I. S. Wintundlv.

J. B. Wintundiy. Allen W. Monroe, justice of the peace, of Floyd county.

Frank C. Johnson. Jonathan Peters, president of LedgerStandard company.

Robert Sloan, agent of Adams and American express companies.

If George E, Leeds, who is a fruit peddler, or who was a fruit dealer some years ago in this vicinity, or his daughters, Debora and Fannie Leeds, will communicate with W. E. McLean, attorney^ they will hear something greatly to their advantage. Any information as to the

resent where bouts of those parties will thankfully received by Mr. McLean.

Great Special Sale of Infants', Children's, Misses' and Ladies' fine and medium Hosiery, to commence on Monday, April 1st, and to continue for one week.

During the special sale we will also make special prices on Corsets, Gloves and Muslin Underwear, and on our new lot of Embroideries.

We consider it useless to speak much more about the matter. Everybody knows that we always do as we adverse, and you may safely take advantage of the opportunity.
