W. CLARK, DRAPER AND CLOTHIER, Lambton Quay, Has the pleasure to inform his customers and the general public that he has RECEIVED AND OPENED OUT HIS SHIPMENT OF GOODS To Commence the Spring and Summer Trade, and he has other Three Shipments to follow, so that his STOCK WILL BE KEPT NICELY ASSORTED DURING THE SEASON. . These Goods will be found Remarkably ! Cheap, and the wonder is how some of them can be made for the money. It is not possible to enumerate the Goods he has received. W. CLARK, therefore, requests Inspection, which will, without doubt, lead to a purchase. W. CLARK is offering some beautiful COLOURED SILKS at 5s per yard for only 2s lid ; one would suppose they " growed " at this price and were not made. The Stock of MEN'S AND BOYS' STRAW HATS Beat anything ho has ever had for Price and Quality. W. CLARK does not think it is possible for anyone to sell cheaper than he does, for the simple reason that he Gets all his Goods Direct to his own Order ; and he allows One Shilling off each £ to Cash Buyers. NB.— Having just completed Stocktaking, and finding that in many things he is overstocked, he has instructed his assistants to Sell a whole lot of these Goods, Regardless of Cost. W. CLARK, Lambton Quay.
