WHAT A DIFFERENCE there is in women. The wise ones have already bought all my White, Blue and Black Hamburg Net, and I have only some of the Brown left, in different patterns, and that is going fast too; and no wonder, when I am selling it at the ridiculous price of Is a yard. I have just bought a Jot of Black, White, and Brown Hamburg Trimming, and will sell it at 2d, 3d, and &<L yard; so don't be too late. The ladies tell me there isn't a man more talked of by them in Auckland than I am, and no wonder, when lam always buying them something nice. I only wish I could get Borne more Shirt Fronts like I am now selling at 6d each. What would the Queen say if she saw my new lot of lovely Cuffs and Collars? I have plenty of the Collars, but the Cuffs are going so fast that they will soon be all sold; Embroidery, 4d a yard; Ladies' White Stockings, 6d; a few Boys' Woolen Jackets left at 2s. I will now reduce my 6s Jackets to ia, and my 4s ones to 3s 6d. Already about three parts of the Scarf Shawls I told you of are sold, and which measure 3 yards 7 inches long, and over 2 feet wide. If there are any married men who wish their wives to live a long while, and I believe there are some who do, let them prove it by treating their wives to one of these Shawls this cold weather. Toilet Fringe, Id a yard; Lace, Id a yard: Clark's skeins Crochet Cotton, 2Jd or 2s id. per doz; Hair Pins, od a dozen boxes, or 2 boxes a penny ; Towels, 3d and 6d ; Trouser Buttons, 2d per dozen. If you wish to look like a Queen, come and see tho lovely bargains I have just bought—namely, Black Bracelets, tid per pair." They look like real jot. Such lovely Necklets, with lockets, 3s each. They look like 18 carat gold, and if they are not I will give you your money back. I will now give your husbands an inducement to take you out for a walk a little oftener by selling such handsome Watch Guards at 2s each. All I need say about them is that though " they may not be" more than 9 carat gold, they look as well as many that are 18 carat, and somebody loses awfully on them, 1 can assure you. As you ladies are fond of the beautiful, come and look at my immense Btock of magnificent Belt Clasps, the higheat price of which is Is a pair. The small shopkeepers should buy quickly my round jjooking Glasses at Bd, Is, and Is 6d per dozen ; Silk Cushion Cord, 6d per dozen yards; Slates, 3d ; Towels, 3d; fresh lot of Bog Oak Brooches, 6d each. I want to see how many sensible tailors will come and buy my CO inch Tape Measures at Id each, worth 6d; my Lidcn Machine Thread at Cd a 2 oz. reel, and my Tailor's Thimbles at 9d a doz., worth 3d each. If all the women in Auckland were as sharp as my lady customers, I shouldn't have any 200 jard reels of Ulazed Cotton left to sell at 8d a dozen, nor any 50-yard ditto to sell at 4d per dozen; but there are sure to be some stupid women in every country. My Ruche (different colours) is going well at Id a yard. I shouldn't be at all surprised but what some of the ladies have been telling their husbands about my Men's superior Felt Hats at 2s 6d, aB there has been a great run on them lately. I havo also some at 2s. Handsome Coloured Satin Furniture Trimming, 6d per yard; Coloured FurBraid, 6d per dozen yards; Black and Green Furniture Gimp, 6d per dozen yards; Black Bugle Dress Gimp, reduced to id per yard.

I am selling Carte-de-Visites of the principal people in the world at lOd each or 8s a dozen ; Cabinet size, Is 6d each. What will the men do when all my Satin Scarfs at Is are all gone, audit will not be long, for I have already sold I should think about 45 dozen. I shall want you ladies to buy my handsome Belt Buckles at 2d to la as soon as you can, as I have bought over 92 dozen. 1 have also bought about 80 dozen pairs of Bracelets, which I am selling 6d and 9d a pair, and they are beauties ; ladies high Button Boots, 5s 6d. Some ladies have sense enough to give me Is 6d for a good Umbrella, but' they don't all appear to have. Military Braid reduced to 4d a dozen yards.

Now lam not going to say that there is one bad woman in Auckland, but still I will say that some are a great deal better than others.; for instance I believe some ladies come and get their bargains of me as usual, and hug them all to themselves, not saying a word to their friends about the wonderful bargains they have bought, whilst the good ladies show what they have bought of me, and tell the price they have paid, and so do good to those they know, including myself. I have a few Hawking Baskets cheap for those who are thinking of going into business. There is one advantage the ladies will gain by reading this advertisement oyer again, and that is they will be able to write down what they wish to remember. Tell your husbands to come and see my strong useful Shoes at 4s a pair.—W. H. Dampier, Victoria-street, corner of Hobsonstreet.
