THE CO-OPERATIVE WORKS SYSTEM.

♦ ! [by telegraph— own correspondent.] Masterton, This Day. Mr. Hoggf, M.H.R., recently received a memorial from the small settlers at Mangaweka complaining that they were suddenly discharged from the railway works just before Christmas. Mr. Hogg has visted Mangaweka and interviewed the Government, and as a result he has wired to the memorialists as follows : — " Have interviewed the Minister of Public Works re petition. He informs me that the reduction of hands has been general throughout the colony, and that there is little probability of increase of hands, ab any rate until after' February."

Puritan Rolled Oats — the great sustainer! ! Cheaper tlum any other— better than any other. How's that? You buy it by the pound and pay nothing for fancy boxes. Your grocer keeps it ! — Advt. The public on the look-out for first-class ironmongery at exceptionally low prices will do well to look up George Winder, ironmonger, Lower Cuba-street, his English and American buyers having sent forward some very heavy shipments at the close of the year. He is terribly overstocked, and must turn those goods into cash at once, and will therefore offer those new fresh goods at astonishing low prices for cash only. See the orioes and be satisfied. —Advt.
