Mr. T. J. Patton a few days ago surprised his family by sending home one of those beautiful Palace Organs— bought of J. A. Marshal], 306 Main st.

Visitors to R. Foster & Son's extensive furniture rooms, on north Fourth street, are astonished to see an upholstered Parlor Set for the low prioe of |37, and other furniture at low prices.

If our people want to see a nice line of boots and shoes for men, women and ohildren, a fresh stock, at hard time prices, let them drop in at J. P. Tutt's elegant establishment in the Opera House block.

J. M. Riffner A Son have removed their tea store to the south side of Main four doors east of Fifth Street, where they show their patrons a choice line of teas, coffees, spices, canned goods, tc, Call and see them.

In musical matters Terre Haute taking a high rank—vocal and instru mental talent—competent teachers and music houses such as that of W. Paige A Co., stocked with an immense stock of instruments of every description.

There is no excuse for using unsafe and rusty harness when F. O. Froeb, on the north side of the court house square, is selling his best made harness at such low prices. He baa a large stock made up and has combs, whips, bi uahe and all such articles.

Van Amburg's Menagerie is coming this way soon, but it will have BO such specimen of the animal kingdom as that standing on the south east corner of Main and Fifth streets. We refer to the Big Black Bear that attracts the attention of the passer by to the elegant stock of bats, caps, and gents' furnish ing goods, sold at such reasonablo-pi icos by S. Loeb fc Co.

It is quite proper for a baker to drive a thorough bred horse and to craeker joke, and it is getting to be quite the proper thing to hail J. H. Chapman's bread wagon as it passes and get some of the bread from his famous bakery. His Market Dining Rooms are thronged about meal time by hundreds who know where to* get the full worth of their money in good, appetizing, well cooked victuals.

When our ladies go out shopping there area few certain places in town that they seldom miss dropping into One of these is the Central Bookstore, The proprietors deem it no intrusion even if you do not want to buy anything. Just roam about at your own sweet will, up and down the long sales room, extending from street to alfey and admire the many elegant books, pictures, table and mantel ornaments, fancy paper,'envelopes, visiting -cards, and other nobby stationery in fanci^i. shapes and designs for which the Central Bookstore is noted.

Years hence, when some long forgotten phonograph is dug out of the ruins of what was once the Prairie City of the West, and its rusty handle is made to revolve, it will be heard to cry in tones of the most earnest conviction "Brennan stands pre-eminent a9 a tailor!" And then the inquiry will be who was Brennan, and in the corner stone of some building gone to ruins will be found a copy of the Saturday Evening Mail, telling of J. P. Brennan, the popular merchant tailor, on east Main street, and how be gathered customers by his low prices, elegant goods and perfect fits. -i*

The city eleotion occurs next Tuesday, and we suppose about every voter has made up his mind how to vote and that ho will call at Wright & King's, corner of Main and Seventh streets, this evening and order for bis Sunday eating from their usual assortment of choice table supplies, seasonable fruits and vegetables, the best the market affords the lowest prices. The best table sauce known, the finest olive oil imported, strictly pure Vermont maple sugar and syrup, choice dressed poultry, extra nice butter, choice hams, breakflust bajon, canned meats, fiab, fruits and vegetables from the best packing bouses in the United States. As complete a stock of staple and fancy groceries as can be found in the city. Their motto is: "Good goods, good meiwure honest woights and prompt pay.'^

In addition to the knowledge he has gained from his reading and observation in this and other countries, be has the advantage of a large and varied experience, with the aid of all appliances that bave boon devised to a perfect examination of it.

E IFE From private leters received by me bearing testimony to Dr. Von Moschzisker's skill as a physician and specialist, and from my own observation and examination of letters and testimonials In his possession, I determined to place myself under his professional treatment for deafness of fifteen years' standing. I take great pleasure in saying that although I bave been ander his treatment but a short time, the benefit I have derived from his applications has been so decided as to excite the remarks of my friends who were not aware that I had been undergoing treatment. I can hear the tick of a watch six inches further from my ear tban I bave been able to hear the same sound for the psst fifteen years. The Doctor is not oulv a skillful physician, but is also a gentleman of high culture and education* G. W. SHANKLIN.
