Here are a few of the hundreds of remarkable' bargains to be had at the Melbourne’s Great Sale now busily proceeding: 27in. striped flannelette, lOd yard; strong white Turkish towels, 2/6 pair; Horrockses’ white sheeting, single bed 1/A yard, double bed 2/11 yard; ladies’ famous Vedonis winter vests,, 4-/11; pure silk stockings, 5/11; N.Z. all-wool blankets from 19/6 pair.— Advt. It has been said that the man who causes two blades of grass to grow where only one grew before is a public benefactor. If that be true —and true it assuredly is-—what is to be said'of those who established a successful local industry which finds employment for many hands, develops the latent resources of this Dominion and keeps the money in the country? Look at what the poor gum lands of the North and the barren clays of Nelson, at one time considered worthless for agricultural purposes, are now producing. They furnish the manufacturers with the raw material for our local brands. And so excellent is this product that no smoker should fail to give it a trial. He is in for quite a new type, a toasted tobacco, more fragrant, less nicotine, and, therefore, healthier. A wonderful improvement compared with the non-toasted tobacco. There are three grades—Riverhead Gold, very mild; Toasted Navy Cut (Bulldog), of medium strength,; and those who prefer a full body will appreciate Cut Plug No. 10, the Bullhead brand.*
