“DECIDEDLY BETTER TONE."

AX UPWARD TREND. A GREAT PURCHASE. “ You have to* move amongst the people to get their views, and T do say there is a much better and brigntei tone amongst the public to-day than say in January,so said Mi X*. Uiggin bottom, of Wanganui, to our representative. Primary products arc the Dominion’s barometer, and it is now realised that prices have been much better than was thought possible some months ago, and the definite indication that the trend is upward, even though there maj be temporary drops, is a great eneouiagc ment. , People in regular employment and those with means are also realising that they must spend in reason to keep things moving, and they are doing so. “The public- dearly love a bargain, and I venture to say you will be surprised beyond measure to see how they will respond to a genuine reduction. '-' Mr Iligginbottom, who is Managing Director pi' Purser’s. Ltd., has come to Haw era to organise the sale of Therkleson's, Ltd., stock which was bought by his firm. “ You know it is not nice to see old firms going out,” Air Iligginbottom said in reply to a question, “but. when it does happen and you have the cash you can make some wonderful deals. Our purchase of Therkleson’s stock gave me some concern at first, because it was a big deal, but we made a definite offer on definite conditions, and it was really a remarkable buy when you think it over. We are going to offer Taranaki people some astounding bargains in furnishings and furniture on Thursday next as special quantities were allotted to each of our branches.'” 5
