To be registered under the Companies Act, 1882, and Amendments. CAPITAL £5000 In 5000 shares of £1 each, 4200 of which are • offered to the public—s/ per share on application, 5/ per share on allotment, and the balance if, and when, required, in calls of not more than 1/ per share, and not oftener than every two months. Directors: Solicitors: MESSRS JACKSON AND RUSSELL. Bankers: NATIONAL BANK OP NEW ZEALAND. This company is being formed for the purpose of continuing and increasing a Steam Laundry Business, now being successfully carried on at Mechanics' Bay, Auckland: The vendors are to receive for their Interest the sum of £2000, £800 of which is to be in fully paid up shares, and £1200 cash- The whole of the balance, less expenses of flotation and brokerage, will be placed to the credit of the company. The property consists of a building of two storeys, with a^ frontage of 50 feet, by a'depth of 150 feet or thereabouts; it is well and substantially built, and is held on a lease for 45 years, at a rental of £75 per annum. Included in lease is valuable frontage, which, can be let at a good rental. The business is already in operation, and a contract has been secured for all the Laundry Work of the Union Steamship .Company; the whole of the Huddart-Parker work is also done, and a large' Share of the Northern Steamship Company and the Coastal Trade, besides that of hotels, boarding houses, and private families. Owing to presure of work, orders have had to be refused; but when the new machinery now arriving is erected the company will be able to cope with all orders received. This being the only steam laundry in Auckland, and with a good business already secured, there is no opposition, with the new labqur saving machinery," and the large new1 business offering, the vendors have every confidence in recommending it as a good and safe investment. The profits are large, and it is proposed as an extra inducement to allow all bona fide shareholders to the extent of £50 a rebate of 10 per cent, on all work done for them. Owing to the business being a going concern, it Is not likely that more than 10/ per share will require to be called up, as everything requisite will have been paid for, including £250 worth of New Machinery, and the business is already running at a substantial profit. Application for shares, accompanied by a deposit of 5/ per share, will Be received by Messrs Cooke and Buddie, 78, Victoria Arcade, Auckland.
