GN WEDNESDAY EVENING, DEC. 14 1804, at 7.30 o'clock. MACDONALD, WILSON AND CO (in conjunction with Messrs DWAN BROS.) are favoured with instruc tions from the Proprietors to sell by pub lie auction as above — .. , _ X4fcO FORTY-THREE) -L^bC GRAND BUSINESS AND RESIDEN .TIAL, BUILDING beinj the sub-division- of' the well-knov*i Show Grounds, situated in tho To'wr of Petone, and forming portion of thi boundary between the Towns of Pc tone and the Hutt. , The One Hundred; and Fprty-three Bui|d ing Sections to be offered at this sale 'are in many respects, superior to the subdivi sions we havo submitted for, many yean past. A largo number of them front Cuba, street, tho main- highway.' between Petoni and the Hutt, and' the future cKief busi ness thoroughfare of the two suburbs. The sections are absolutely flat, no ex pense being required for filling-in or exca vation prior to buildjng. Being bituated between the Towns o Petono and tho Hutt, they will form thi nucleus of a new Business Centre of im mense importance to the large number o: residents who. havo already located them selves in and about Alicetown, and im mediately opposito the property. On each of tho sections a splendid .floy of artebian water can be obtained, and oi several of the sections pipes have been pu clown and tho water is now flowing. The Borough of Petone is now devisinj extensive improvements in tho way o drainage, water supply, etc., so as to maki the borough an up-to-date object-lesson t< other municipalities throughout the col onyi Both the Hutt, Borough Council ant tho Petono Borough Council's Engineer! aro also preparing the plans of a schemi for diverting and carrying off all surfaci 1 water v from the hills. : Arrangements aro being made for i splendid service of new Motor Car 'Bu6sei between the Railway Stations of Petoni . and tho Hutt. Theso Motor Ca? 'Busse: are" said to be far superior in comfort anc convenience to the Electrio Cars, as the: can go anywhere and stop anywhere, anc the cost of carriage is far below that of tin Electric Tram Car Services. The rapid development of the Town o Petone, and of tho lands immediately sur rounding it, is one of "the wonderful sur prises to those unacquainted with thi forces that are daily at work compellim it to forgo ahend. The straightening o tho railway line between Wellington anc Potone, now rapidly proceeding, will' ie duce tho time occupied in 'the-journej to cloven minutes, and be no mean factoi in adding to Petone's present attraction! eithe. for business, residence, or the in vestment of capital. The Town of Petono stands absoluteh unique m tho history of the colony in thii respect. I'or the past twenty years even man who has invested £100 in the pur chaße of its lands has increased his origina capital many times. As an examplo oi now quickly money is made- in P'etone we may instance this recent fact. In the month of August, 1903, we sold a smal block of land not far from the Sho« Grounds for £3050. Last month we re-sole jy.? 2 - 68 V a profit t0 lhe bby« 8u y«8 ol £5218 within fifteen months. No one having a few pounds to spare should hesitate at this stage in invGstint in these lands. Within a very brief perioc overy half-acre between tho Towns of Pc tone and the Hutt will be covered with manufactories and residences, and its-valu* will have increased tenfold. There may. be doubts as to tho stabilitj and permanency of improvement in certain parts of the colony. There are none as to the advantages, and future of all thai pertains to Petone and its surroundings. The Terms of Sale have been fixed on a basis to enable every m'ah' bf ambition anc energy- to acquire a Business or a Home Site. Tho ordinary working man in the clays of past years never had such t chance. All land sold then had to be paic for in cash. Land is, after all, a fixed anc limited quantity, and you cannot alwayf get it, even at a high price. Do not, therefore, neglect such an opportunity as this. • The first duty of every man is to owr the houso and land occupied by his wife and little ones. The TERMS are:— Ten per cont. Deposit Ton per cent, in Six Months Ton per cent, in Twolvo Months Balance in Three Years Interest, Five and a- Half per cent. Any purchaser willing to build a house to tho value of his laud need only pay the Ten per cent. Deposit. The balance of his Purchase Money can remain unpaid for s period of years.
