OTAKI-PAEKAKARIKI DAILY MEAT SUPPLY.

Ths business aptitude which is an attribute of the Scotch nation is, among other cauees, said to be due to the fact that the Book of Proverbs used to be printed in separate form, and carried in the pocket of every Scotchman. That inestimable compilation is, as everyone ■knows, an excellent fttiide in all matters pertaining to gain and loss, hence the Northmen by their clcse acquaintance with and practice of Solomon's precepts, became the clever business people which they aa-o universally (regarded as being. It is not the intention here, however, to expatiate on a subject that provides matter for a most interesting controversy, but simply to note, while reviewing the commercial and industrial activity prevailing along tho Manawatu line that one übiquitous native of the land o' cakes in the person of Mr. J. R. Macintosh, the well-known manager for Mr. Gear, junior, at To Horo, has with the usual enterprise of hie countrymen, established himself as a purveyor of the primest beef, mutton, and other goods in the butchery line for the convenience of Te Horo, Waikanae, Paraparaumu, Otaki, Paekakariki, and all dwell-ers intho up-country districts around the places mentioned. The genial "Mac." saw the opportunity for the inception and development of a busineses of great possibilities, and at once exerted himself to meet the much felt want. The successful re•sult of ,his endeavours in that direction is now to be seen, and 'the public along the Manawatu appreciate the daily sup ply of prime beef, and mutton which is bred, and fattened on the magnificent pasture lands on either side of the Te fforo railway station. Mr. Macintosh has had a lifetime's experience among stock of all classes, and the rag-tag and bob-tail of the flock and herd find no place within his slaughtering operations. He rscogniecs the public health demands the best of everything , for hnman consummption, and from him the public get it .every time, and at such prices as defy competition. Besides the carte, there is a shop fully (stocked with the best of everything at Paraparaumu. Leave your address there, and the carts will call on you, anywhere between Otaki and Paekakariki. %
