The One Hundred and, Forty-three Building Sections to be offered at this 6ale are, in many respectß, superior to the subdivi. sions wo have submitted for many years past. A large number of them front Cubastreet, the main highway between Petone and the Hutt, and the future chief business thoroughfare of the two suburbs. Tho sections are absolutely flat, no expense being required for filling-in or excavation prior to building. Being situated botweon tho Towns of Petone and the Hutt, they will form the nucleus of a new Business Centre of immense importanco to the large number of | residents who have already located thelnselvos ,in and about Alicetown, and immediately opposite tho property.' On each of tho sections a splendid flow of artesian water can be obtained, and on several of the sections pipes have been put down and the water is now flowing. The Borough of Petone is now devising extensive improvements in the way of drainage, water supply, etc., so, as to make the borough an up-to-date object-lesson to other municipalities throughout the coi°«y- Both the Hutt Borough Council and the Petono Borough Council's Engineers are also preparing the plans of a scheme for diverting and:, carrying off all surface water from tho _ hills. " " " t Arrangements are being made for a splendid service of now Motor Car 'Busses between the Railway Stations of Petone and the Hutt. These Motor Car 'Busses | are naid to be far superior in comfort and convenience to the Eleetrio Cars, as they can go anywhere and stop anywhere, and SV 3 I 0?*I 0 ?* °J; carria g° is far below that of tho Electric Tram Car Services. The rapid development of the Town of .retone, and of the lands immediately surrounding it, is ono of "the wonderful surprises to those unacquainted with the forces that aro daily at work compelling it to forge ahead. The straightening of the railway line between Wellington and retono, now rapidly proceeding, -will i oioi 0 - CIUCO tho time occupied in the journey ;« t!?T ?n Tll"*^T 11 "*^ and be no. mean factor m adding to Petono's present attractions eithor for business, residence, or the in- ! vestment of capital. ! Tho Town of Petono stands absolutely TT\ ln v he i 1 L IStory of the colo «y » this respect. For the past twenty years every man who has invested £100 in tho purchase of its lands has increased his original capital many times. As an oxamplo of' how quickly money is made, in Potone, w,e may instance this recent fact. In the Si °r f , Au ? usfc ' 1903 > we Bold * small block of land not far from tho Show Grounds for £3050. Last month wo re-sold %nS 68 '*? profit t0 tho bu y° r * °f £5218 withm fifteen months. j- No 7j°? c havin S a few pounds to spare should hesitate at this stage in investing m these lands. Within a vory brief period every half-acre between the Towns of Petone and the 'Hutt will be covered with manufactories and residences, and its value will have increased tenfold. i There may be doubts as to tho stability 1 and permanency of improvement in certain parts 'of the colony. Thero are none as to the advantages and future of all that pertains to Petone and its' surroundings. The Terms of Sale have been fixed on a basis to enablo every man of ambition and energy to acquire a Business or a Home Site.

The first duty of every man is to own ! tho house and land occupied by his wife \ and little ones. The TERMS aro .— Ten per cent. Deposit Ten por cent, in Six Months Ten per cent, in Twelvo Months Balance ia Threo Years 1 Interest, Five and a Half por cent.
