The material" kpown as flannelette undoubtedly takes rank as "the most useful, most economical, and most popular 'fabrio ever placed in the market. As every housewife knows the uses to whioh it may be put are almost oountlesß, and the only difficulty hitherto has been that the demand has far exceeded the supply. To remedy this defeot immense importations have been made for tho season at the Wholesale Family Drapery Warohouso, Te Aro House Tkrbs are literally miles of flannelette now displayed at this well-known emporium, the total shipments up to date exceeding 60,000 yards. But it is not the quantity alone tbat should attraot attention, for the variety of patterns, the really artistio designs, and the 'beauty apd novelty qf the colourings mußt command the admiration of every visitor to the Wholesale Tamily Drapery Warehouse, To Aro House. Somi of these beautiful flannelettes might well be mistaken for rich brooades or oreponß. These are speoially adapted for making up into blouses or dressing-gowns. There are also great piles of striped flannelettes, plaid flanneletteß, and flannelettes in plain colours, and all at prioes that will fully sustain the reputation for cheapness already acquired by tbo Wholesale Family Drapery Warehouse, Te Aro House.— Adtt. We are pleased to notify that Mee-Brs. Wilkins & Field, of Manners-street, have added to their business the rnanufaoture of Perambulators and Go-oarts. The painting and finishing is made a speoial feature. Great oare is taken in this department, with the result that the carriages turned out are muoh superior to any yet attempted. They invite inßpeotion of their stook, amongst which will be found somb novel and handsome designs. The prioee will bear oomparison with any in the trade. They have also just opened a Bhipment of Boys' Tricycles and Biovoles. — Advt
