We always know when Christmas ia coming, if by no other sign than tbe buttle and preparation made in tbe vicinity of Ed W. Johnson's Immense oyster depot. This year is no variation to tbe rule. Already the trains are coming in, freighted with oysters fresh from tbe best beds on tbe sea coast, and including tbe big saddle rocks, in full quart snd half gallon cans—solid meat. If you can't wait till Cbiiatmaa, get a sample for Sunday.
There is evidently a preference this season for the useful over tbe ornamental, in the way of Christmas gifts, and happily the two can be combined iu many articles of furniture. Foster it Son sold yesterday over two hundred dollars worth of furniture, and they have bai a steady demand all this week. Their two ware rooxis, on Fourth street, just north of Cherry, are chock full of every variety of urn it are from elegant parlor and chamber suites down to tbe oommoaeet and most serviseable articles.
H. F. Schmidt A Co., the enterprls ng have e*«rything in tbe Jewelry trad*, inoluling fine watches for lad?** and gentlemen, mantel and other* keInel^ant deetgns, silver* ware In creat v«r« l|, opem glasMS, fine rings, bracelet*, ntcklacee, a large variety of cameo and other »eta. How. ever, we cannot enumerate all. it i« only neceraary to say tb«t the stock is eon from the best ouuiofa^urer*, and sold at remarkably lew figntea. They are clever and oonrteoaa gentle* men,* and It ia a pleasure to them to mkmm their elegant goods, whether yon to buy or not. Ia yonr holtK:^

Jauriet & Co. will keep their store open to-night, and every night antil after Christmas, until ten o'clock, for the benefit of those wishing to look at holiday goods.
Foster Brothers give away to-night after 0 o'clock a delicious cucumber. They keep open evenings till after Christmas, and give away a present every night after 0 o'clock.
In looking for Christmas gifts see the pretty )ap robes snd tbe large stock of men and boys' saddles at Peter Miller's harness establishment, sooth Fourth street. Nothing more acceptable.
W. H. Greiner, the wide awake dealer in boots and shoes, believes in quick sales and small profits, and the readers of The Mail are invited to call at his store, on Ohio street, just west of Fourth and be satisfied that there is the place

Perhaps yoo can't make op your
mind what to get for a Christmas gift. Let us suggest that you visit S. Loeb A Co's big hat store, corner Fifth and Main streets, where you will find latest style hats, seal caps, seal, dog, Plymouth and kid gloves, umbrellas, Engliah walking canes and other pretty, serviceable and acceptable articles appropriate for the Christmas season, and at very low prices.
A couple of tbe most attractive show windows on Main street are those of Button fc Co's Central Bookstore. The unique basket and bracket wares attract tbe attention of tbe passer by, and cause many exclamations of delight—especially from tbe ladies. These show win dows, however, are only a taste of tbe many elegant goods, such as books, albums, pictures, fancy stationery, mantel and table ornaments of every conceivable variety. We remember last year a lady remarked that iu tbe way of holi day gifts sbe could get everything she wanted at tbe Cential this year Mr. Button has exercised still more taste, and purchased a larger stock than ever. By a»l means visit the Cen tral Bookstore before making your Christmas purchases.

WE were compelled to withdraw our advertisement from tbe Evening Gazette, owing to the harvest we reaped from our past notioes of closing out this stock. Daring our withdrawal from print, a very kind fellow citizen in our trade took tbe pa ins of circulating the report that "Boss Joe" was dead, that he had gone to Leadville, Ac. This be tells with a hyena grin, but it sours on him. Onward we move, and the light of commercial prosperity most assuredly awaits us, tbe cause being tbe full determination, at all times and nnder all circumatances, never to let oar stock remain on hand, but to sell everything regardless of cost rsther than move tbe same. We place on sale to-day 650 Canadian "Keyo" Overcoats "For Men" $1.75. Theee costs will coat yeu in lees than thirty days |4.50. We place on sale to-day several hundred suite of clothing for men made by the celebrated bouse of Hammersiough Broa., New York, and purchased of them as a job for 93.60 to #4-50 in three different styles and are made of good, warm material. We would alao call attention to tbe large line of fine all wool eassimere and cheviot suits we sre offering now at $10 and 912.60 per euit considered by all who have seen them, the best bargains offered in Terre Haute. We "boss" them all on nobby ulsterettes—see our $5.00 ulster. "Good luck to all who enter here." "Joe," tbe Boss Clothier and Dollar Hatter.
