I have long since realized that grocery stores are the most useful thing yet discovered, except religion ai^ some folks say they would rather be a good grocery keeper eny da than a poor preacher, which is just my sentiment to a dot. The old saying, that an honest grocery keeper is the no
blest work uv art, is just as true as gospel. A man that will spend his days a huntin' up good and wholsom things fer his feller critters to eat—things that will agree with them, and that will be a comfort to them, and that they'll take a delight in—and that will furnish these things to customers cheap, is man in whose stomach the milk of human kindness is as pure as cream. Such a man is E. R. Wright, of the White Front grocery, whose store to-day Is filled with good things, such as
Strawberries, Lettuce, Radishes, Spinach, Young Onions, Kale, Asparagus, New Beets, Rhubarb, Maple Syrup, Dressed Turkey, White Clover Honey, Choice Sorghum, New Orleans Syrup, Honey Drto Syrup, Mince Meats, Apple Butter, eft ice Teas, Dressed Chickens, Dressed Ducks, Choice Oranges, Choice Cranberries, Choioe Bananas, Fancy Brands of Fruits and Vegetables, Smoked White Fish, Choioe Creamery Butter, Choioe Country Butter, all at Bottom Rock Prices.

THE BARBER'S OPINION.
"Some people think 'tis only made For cleansing goods of heavy grade, For washing down the walls or stairs, The bureau, tables and the chairs But folks do well to change their mind 'Tis not to things like these confined, And not alone the kitchen maid And laundress prize its friendly aid
A WORD OF WARNING.
There are many white soaps, each represented to be just as good as the 'Ivory'}" they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting it.

Regardless of Consequences.
SchloflB opened Friday the most startling Clothing ever known in Terre Haute. There's reason in everything. Two months of horrid weather in the heart of the Clothing season has knocked things endwise. We have got to do something right now. To be plain with yon and not talk too much, we began a CYCLONE SALE Friday morning, that will sweep everything before it Men's suits slaughtered. Cost or loss not thought ot Not a single mux's or a boy's suit spared. Every one of the thousands in our store included in this deep and sweeping reduction.
I find it just the nicest thing For toilet use and barbering. The slightest touches will suffice To make a foamy lather rise, That holds the beard till smoothly laid* However dull may be the blade. In short, the tale is ever new That tells what IVORY SOAP will do."
