Business Notices* ■ THE WEEKLY PRESS AND NEW ZEALAND KEFEBEE (ILLUSTEATED). NEW ZEALAND'S PBEMIEB JOURNAL. THE WEEKLY PRESS was established in 1865, and has long been recognised as the Only Colonial Paper of New Zealand, the paper whose interests and circulation are alike coextensive with the colony. Ovrinp, to tne remarkable fact that the Weekly I?ress is read by every class, both in town and country, and in every province of New Zealand, it is admitted by all that it is UNRIVALLED AS AN ADVERTISING MEDIUM. In Canterbury aud Christchurch iB is practically the Only Weekly Paper of importance. Advertisers naturally prefer a paper that is read from end toeua, that illustrates the events of Che moment, and is passed from one person to another, that always has the freshest news and the newest stories, that is invariably taken by every member of the fair sex, and that reaches every farmer iv the country ; consequently they puc their announcements in the Weekly Press, and find that their advertising pays. ___ The Weekly Press and N.Z. Referee costs £1 4s per annum, in advance, posted to any part of the colony. In quality of paper, type, and general " get-up," tne Weekly Phess has no peer anioug its contemporaries.
