« SMITH AND SMITH'S SHARES A GOOD PROPOSITION. : Few businesses are attendant with such little risk as that of oil and colour merchants, and that is one of the many reasons why investment in Smith and Smith's six per cent, cumulative preference shares, free of income-tax, is such a good proposition. People must have houses to live in. Houses must have windows. Wooden houses must be painted and papered. Shops must have plate-glass windows, churches their leadlights and stained glass, factories and warehouses their skylights. The lines the company handles so successfully are absolutely essential, and, as it occupies the foremost position in New Zealand, substan-1 tial and lucrative business is done year in, year out, an«J good dividends are assured. The company has branches in Wellington, Ohristchurch, and Dunedin, all of which do a large and successful business. It is now proposed to erect a branch warehouse in Auckland, and a new factory for the preparation of paints, enamels, and varnishes. Prospectus giving all particulars of these developments, and the issue of new shares, are obtainable at the company's offices, Wellington. Christchurch, and Dunedin, the National Bank of New Zealand, and the brokers: R. Hill Fisher and Son, Hereford street, Christchurch; G. G. and J. H. Aitken and Co., Hereford street, Ohristchurch. 7
