R. A. ENGLAND, Auctioneer, Queen-street, Onehanga. • - WHAT' A DIFFERENCE there is in women. - The -wise ones have already bought all my- White, Bine, and Black Hamburg Net, and I have oaly some of theßrown left,,in/ different pattern a, and that is going fast too; and no wonder, when I am selling it at-the ridiculous price of Is ayard. I havejustbought a lot of Biack, White, and Brown Hamburg,l Trimming, and will sell it at 2d, 3d, and Id yard; j BO 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 Icould get some more Shirt.

I "will now give your Husbands an inducement to take you out for a walk a little of tener 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, I can assure you. As you ladies are fond of the beautiful, come and look at my immense stock of magnificent Belt Clasps, the highest price of which is Is a pair.

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.

NowlamJnotgoingto say that there is one bad woman in Auckland, but still I will say that some are agreat 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 1 hey have bought, whilst the good; ladies show what they have bought of me,'andtell the price they havepaid, and" so" do^ood to those they know, including myself.
