will IJOglad to learn, has recovered her health, and is now at her home at Brownsville, Tennessee. Her mental troubles

were

of a temporary character.

It isn't school education always that make^i a man. W. B»„ Warren, for instance, one of our forpp«6*t and wealthiest citizens, had sS^lipfwitages for a period of leas than cme and a half years. "lit d" M. Smith is again managing the Oj era llouso, temporarily. His long experience makes trim *t home with it,

Gaaetlc: Mr. John W. Meyer, late of Kspenblan A Albrecht's, has resigned and taken a position as salesman with Messrs. James A McCoy, or the Buckeye Cask Store. There isn't a better salesman in towu than John, and he will be quite an acquisition to the house, where lie no has his headquarter*.

John D. Condit, who, in the years gone by, was looked up to by us boys as the btts* dcrk of Torre Haute, and who, as clerk in ho store Jniues H.Turner, receiv&l tho largost snlnry of any salesman in the city, is again in tho dry goods trade, as a memlier of the new flirm of J. W. Hess A Co., luiliarvspolis. This, wo lxjaeve, is his ilrst venture in mercantile life, and It is wife to say that his aterliug business and social qualities will make it tho success which has attended his other business enterprises.

Peaple are astonished when they iearn the low prices at which J. W. Roberts A Co. are selling wall paper, at their new establishment, corner of Ohio and Sixth streets. They liavo an elegant «took to select from and competent and skilled workmen to put it on the walls and (tilings in the most artistic manner. Drop in there aud soe how eager they AI« to fiult your taste and your purse.

For Mayor and the other city officers go for the best man, but for chickens, 1 u*ks. lettuce, onions, rhubarb, hams Breakfast Bacon, shoulders, fresh butter and eggs, pickles, chow chow, catsup in bottle and bulk, asparagus, mess ntackcr&l, brook tiout, Jollies in giant and bulk, tine teas and eofltees, and a choice line of canned peas, beans, foreign and domestic fruits and vegetables, to R.

"rh^ikgQi of spring are aaf&eient to IndtK* Peter Miller to display a nice line of tap Duster* at his barnem manufactory, on south Fourth street, where may lie seen substantial harness of overr dtweription.

Foster A Son, the popular furniture dealers on north Fourth street, show large stock of elegant parlor furniture, at prices within the reach of all.

Right here it is proper to ssy that for anything in tbe line of harness, saddles, or horse-gear generally, you will at no place find better goods or lower prices than at Ffsbeck Brothers', 212 Main street.

J. P. Brennan Is one of the many men especially thankful for the nice weather of this week. It has given quite a boom to his popular merchant tailoring house, where new piece goods are now coming in daily—handsome patterns that make up Into e'egant suits. Mr. Brennan buys in small lots and frequently—hence his stock is always fresh, and the latest out.

As mentioned elsewhere, one of the first signs of Spring is the feeling that your hat is shabby. You can quickly and at very, slight cost, get rid of this feeling by going to S. Loeb A Go's, corner of Main and Fifth streets, and selecting from the large stock one of the latest style hats, of which there is enough variety to suit every taste. You will find there also a tm* line of gents'furnishing goods.

Tho Central Bookstore always has an inviting look, and Mr. Button and his clerks are always glad to see any reader of The Mail, whether they come in with the intention of buying or not. Just. dt|op in and roam about at your own sweet will. If, among the large collection of books, the elegant jtationery, the substantial blauK books, the mantel and table ornaments, tbe cute frames, the pretty pictures and other beautiful things, you tind anything you want, they will sell It to you at the lowest prices.

Before marriage she was dear and he was her treasure but afterward she became dearer and he treasurer, and now they are happy because thoy buy their groceries and table supplies at Wright A Kaufman, on the corner of Main and Seventhstreets. These enterprising grocers have sources of supplies that never fail them, and when you want anything for the table, if it is in town you may be sure of finding it in their large and well selected stock, always "frte&h, clean and pure. 0

THE SORCERER.

And it came to pass in the days when BBKJAJtn* did reign as lord Mayor over the beautiful city of Terre Haute That city which was built upon high ground on the banks of the raging wabash where flourished the TAIX. SYCAMOHB and the home where the swallows came to roost that the people did cry out in

sore

complaint because of the snows of Winter which lingered HI'the lap of Spring, and were greeMjr^vexed as to what manner of raiment they aboald wear. For the summer was near at hand and their wives, their sons and daughters, their sisters, cousins, and aunts, were not clothed in robes of beauty, elegance, and style, such as are constantly .being made and sold at tbe Buckeye Gash Store. Therefore, the politicians called together the voters in their separate wards and did select representatives from among their number of wise men to meditate'and decide upon tbe great question as to which of the many dealers in Purple and Fine Linen, Silks, Cotton Goods and Laoes, in this far famed city of beautiful shade trees, should be given tbe leading patronage of all the multitude of people^ who crowd its thoroughfares and market places.

Now when tbe bugle had been sounded, and tho nations all did hear, there came up from the crowded marts of commerce, from the East, West, North and South, from the rolling mills, the nail works, the car shops, and from faroff Bagdad, a great multitude of people of all nations, tongues and kindred with the LYON as their leader, and Phillip by his side, they wondered if SLAXTOHTKR would be MADK upon Innocent hearts (for BENJAMIN had declined a second term) therefore they all with one accord did shout: we'll brave the SORCERER in his DKN, and rushed with (H)EAOER steps even unto the Ojera House to learn of JOHN the mlsteries of love, and taste his magic philter.

Then did JOHN come forth and speak unto the people there assembled, saying, I do now proclaim unto you all that one ELISHA, who is cousin to oUr- Lord Mayor, now is on a journey to the far east to visit that great city of commerce by the sea, that he may gather together for our people fine Silks and Satins, Cloths, Cashmeres, Summer Wraps, Gloves, Hosiery and Domestic Goods, enough for all the city folks and country round about. Aud WALIJE said, that's so! Their Corsets are all perfect fits. Their elegance and price so cheap doth give to them the leading Corset trade they hold the winning cards, and laugh at competition. The "Lady from the Lake" city of Chicago, a thorough artiste is in her profession. Good works doth always bring reward, and naught but adjectives of praise doth ceme from those for whom she's garments mado. For she doth finish in a beauty, grace

Buntings, Plaids and lonely stuffs, woven from softest wool that e'er was shorn from lamb, in robes so elegant grand they cannot be surpassed in cities great or small.

Then came one ROBERT, who like the DOCTOR in tbe cast, was in great favor with the matrons "and fair maidens of

The Chicago Inter Ocean tells that as the Hon. Benjamin Humphrey Hill witiL limping away from Mahone in the Sett-' tl»is land, because of his great grandeur ate the other day, the Hon. Daniel W*fe #®d 8°°d clothes. Thus spake he to the people: "For many seasons have I, in sore want of shekels many, been forced 'to walk the market place in search of garments made of fine iamb's wool, for little money and for little price, and journeyed I in vain until I found the

BUCKEYK CASH STORE, and-bought my rich apparel there at WHOLESALE PRICES."

Now, when these sages three had made an end of speaking, and all the maidens fair had sung their sweetest songs of praise to the BUCKEYE STORE of fame, the people all did rise and with one voice said they: "We'll follow the advise of these wise men, spoken this day to us, and establish unto our households this law, that all the wearing apparel for ourselves, our wives, our husbands and our children, on account of lis cheapness, fineness, durability and style, buy we this day, henceforth and forever, of tbe BUCKKYK CASH STORE, where all goods are sold at STRIPW.T .WHOI^AI.* PllTrfRR."
