THE LATEST NIW STOCK iff It always was a puzzle to us what induced people to send east for an article when the same could be had i right at home, of equally as good a quality, and on more reasonable terms. Wagons, buggies and carriages enter largely into this list of foreign exports, when they can be, and are manufactured right here in our own midst, and are known to be more durable, and ore sold just as cheap as the imported article. Messrs. J. A.

Tolley have something to say on this subject in another column. They are square men and will treat you white. But give them a call, and see how it is yourself. A ladies bazaar is always a place of favorite resort for the female portion of the community; but when a place of that kind is made as attractive as the store of Mrs. E.

L. Whiting, it is doubly so. Crowds of ladies are to be seen there every day, which is pretty conclusive evidence that she offers very rare inducements both in the quality and price of her fabrics. Another evidence is that she lets her light shine through the medium of the Advertiser. G.

F. KENDALL Kansas avenue, 157 I now in New YorK, forwarding NEW NOVELTIES Every Tiny. Col. ltobt. Ingersoll, one of the greatest orators in the United States, probably, in many respects, the greatest in the world, will speak to-morrow evening at the Opera House.

He ought to have a large audience. If it was supplemented by a nigger show he would have. Groceries, fruits and confectioneries make up the major part of the sum total of our internal physical existence. They are among the chief necessaries of life, and where to find a cheap and pure article is always desirable. We will tell you.

Go to A. A. Ripley Son. They always keep a full supply and sell them on the most reasonable terms. See advertisement in another column.

One of the most pleasing sights (of course always excepting a pretty, ele-egantly dressed woman), is to see a nice, comely man encased in a nice, genteel, perfectly fitting suit of store clothes. These can always be found at the merchant tailoring establishment of Mr. P. Olson, on the most reasonable terms. Give him a eall.

He advertises in the Commercial Advertiser. If you have any real estate to dispose of, or have any school, county or State scrip that you want the money for. call on B. Haywood, and he will take pleasure in accommodating you. He also loans money on approved personal or real estate security.

Mr. Haywood has been in the business a long time, and is well known as an upright and honorable dealer. The neatest admonition to the public, as well as the most timely, was made the other day through the medium of the daily press, by G. C. Clemens, in which he cautions the public against the purchase of a note for fifty dollars advertised by Cullum, receiver of the defunct First National bank.

We know of several parties who were negotiating for its purchase. Capt. Dan. Wagstoff, of Salina, was in the city during the past week. If Dan has any faults, unfaithfulness to his friends is not one of them.

Orders filled promptly, and in the most stylish manner. BOYST SHOES. We have lately opened a verydesir able line of Shoes for boys, in Before purchasing elsewhere, I should like to show you these goods. WM. H.

WHITE, at the OLD SHOE STORE 188 Kansas avenue 188 When we took his advertisement, we asked Charley Jones, of the firm of C. R. Jones wholesale liquor dealers, what kind of a local notice he wanted. His reply was that he kept nothing but straight goods, direct from the manufacturers, which he bought by the car load, strictly for cash. This being the case he could afford to sell them, for cash, at from 5 to 10 per cent, less than any other house west of the Missouri river that bought and sold on time.

We believe him and take pleasure in recommending him to the public as a square and honorable dealer. There is one clothing store in Topeka that always has one price for everything found on its shelves, or hanging around loose on its walls. Mr. L. Benjamin, one of our most honorable and respectable business men is the proprietor of this store.

If lifytells you that a suit of clothes is worth $20 you may make up your mind that it is so, and you cant get it for a dime less. With such a man it is always a pleasure to deal. Speaking of boots and shoes, we are reliably, informed that there is no better place in the city to find them than at the extensive establishment of Mr. A. P.

Benson. The mostoi' his goods are homemade by the most experienced workmen, and are warranted as represented. If the senior 'Benson is not in, you will always fine the polite and obliging young Al ready and willing to wait on you in the most approved style. Besides al this, he advertises. Mrs.

Give her a call. Nothing startling or important transpires anywhere, except Kansas is somewhere represented. Orrin T. Welch, of this city, was a guest at the Southern hotel, St. Louis, which burned April 11.

Not a hair on his head, however, was singed, and this is the other phase of the Kansas business. The gentleman from Kansas always comes out on top. Fresh fruits, and pure, unadulterated confectioneries are a few of the delicacies of this life that we all like to have. The next question is; where can we find them? Our answer is: at Geo Hanleys fruit store. His stock is at all times full and complete, fresh and pure.

The Odd Fellows of the city celebrate their anniversary on April 28. Several gentlemen recently left this county and city for the Black Hills. Our old shoe has been thrown over our left shoulder at them. By many who have been experimenting, it is claimed that the eggs deposited last fall and summer by the grasshoppers, will not hatch. We have been greatly encouraged the last week by the people of this city.

The encouragement has bgen of a substantial character. Reference is made to our advertising columns. H. H. Wilcox, we are happy to announce, who has for long, weary years striven for an office of some kind from somebody, has at last got one.

He is city clerk and will make A good one. Maj. D. M. Adams, who had business one day last week at the Leavenworth penitentiary, had an interview with Dr.

Ashmore, formerly of North Topeka. The Doctor is, under the circumstances, in comfortable spirits. The lecture last Monday evening, at the Presbyterian church, by Hon.
