PERFECT FIT GUARANTEED. PRICES MODERATE, AS USUAL. CRAIGHEAD AND CO., Tancred street (Next Orr and Co.’s). 719 a I HAVE heard persons who ought to know remark that “ Rome was not built in a day,” nor, for that matter, was Ashburton, notwithstanding that the latter has been called a “jumped-up town.” I don’t believe the site of Ashburton will revert to a sheep-walk again quite so soon as some people imagine, and it’s being jumped upon in this way won’t hinder its advancement in the least. In proof that this is my way of thinking, I point to the business I am iuw engaged in building up, which, thanks to the public of Ashburton and surrounding districts, bids fair to bo of a substantial character. A varied stock from the choicest Fruits, down to humble Potatoes, with Italian goods, and almost every article in GROCERIES will be found in my new building, including the now celebrated Blended Teas of Nelson, Moate, <fc Co., in boxes and packets.

PRICE LISTS ON APPLICATION. 132 a GRATEFUL COMFORTING EPPS’S COCOA. BREAKFAST. BY a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of well selected cocoa, Mr. Epps has provided our breakfast tables with a delicately flavoured beverage which may save us many heavy doctor’s bills. It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist every tenpency to disease. Hundreds of subtle maladies are floating around us ready to attack wherever there is a weak point. We may escape many a fatal shaft by keeping ourselves well fortified with pure blood and a properly nourished frame.— See article in the Civil Service Gazette.
