STEWART ROBINSON HITS OUT.
SAYS HE IS AGAINST HOARDING STOCKS. "Local wholesale prices never influence me when marking goods," says Mr Stewart Robinson. "1 am happy to sell my stocks irrespective of what anybody else may be doing. When I make a bargain purchase I ask myself what is the lowest figure I can sell at and clear expenses;—not how much I can get. My boot shop in Cashel street is always busy—l like to see it so.

For men I have reduced the prices of heavy greenhlde shooters 3s a pair; my price this week will be only 30s. These are the best shooters made, suitable for mining and the roughest wear, each boot having a ■waxed-thread sewn counter at the People looking for real bargains will find much. to interest them this week at Stewart Robinson's, in Cashel street west. - e
