K. PKIC & CO., HAWKE'S BA¥ HOUS. E , Opposite the Post-office. Established 1863. INow recognised as the T EvDING AND FAVORITE ESTABJ.J LISHMENT in Napier for introducing the Latest Novelties and Newest Styles, for keeping a superior class of Goods in every Department, and selling the best makes at lower prices than usually charged for inferior ones.— E, P ICE & CO. have now the pleasure to state that they have opened out an unusually Large Shipment for the commencement of the Season, twothirds of which have been imported direct from the English and Continental Markjets, and bought at very Low Kates — in faci at Manufacturer's cost — during . the great depression at the end of 1877.. . j | Exposition of Departments — J OUR MILLINERY DEPARTMENT this Season is remarkable for the gance of the PARISIAN BONNETS, while the new styles and makes of HATS are superior in comfort to any yet invented. Hpecial attention must be drawn to;our new shape in Seal Fur Hats ; they are most recherche, and are the Real Golden Seal of the very best quality, warranted to last three seasons. It is well-known that the fashion in Seal Hats is only changed once in three years, and as this is the first season of the new shape, they are guaranteed for that time. The new Trimming for Bonnets and Hats in Real Feather, Real Sable, and Otter Moonlight, Ac, are very much admired. '. The Shaded Real Ostrich Feathers and Tips, in every color, are the best quality ever imported. The Real French Flowers are marvelß of ingenuity in copying from nature. The Hot House exotics are reproduced in every particular but the perfume. We may mention incidentally that the specialty this season for Trimming is a Bird. Anticipating the demand for this extra finish to a Hat or a Bonnet, we cleared the Dunedin market, and have now an assortment of, we think, every variety known to the naturalist, also Wings of the rarest plumage. OUR LADIES' AND CHILDREN'S UNDERCLOTHING, CORSETS, &c, which we import from the celebrated Glasgow House of Tilley and Henderson, are so well known to our customers for quality I of cloth and beauty of finish, that further I comment is needless. We have a very large and well-assorted stock in this Department. OUR COSTUME DEPARTMENT surpasses this season all previous efforts of the Parisian Costumiere. We have been successful in procuring a few Costumes for Ladies' and Children's wear, direct from the | celebrated establishment of Worth's, in Paris. They are real triumphs of this French artiste. MANTLE DEPARTMENT. — This season LONG JACKETS will be very fashionable. We have bought largely, at exceptionally low prices, in. Long Velvet Jackets, Long Carners Hair Jackets, Matalasse, and a variety of other Cloths, which we have marked in order to clear the quantity at a very slight advance on the original English cost. TTLSTERS.— Three cases of Ladies' and \J Children's Ulsters were offered us in Dunedin on the 14th March last, at half the English invoice price. It is almost unnecessary to remark that we bought them. These will be found very superior in quality and style, and much less than the price usually charged for the making up. Colored Silk Velvets and Velveteens in every shade and tint ; Black Lyons, Silk Velvets and Velveteens in every quality. SILK DEPARTMENT.— The Black Silks we have imported this season have been selected from the best and softest makes, warranted not to cut, experience having shown us that thesa only can be relied on for wear Tints in Colored Silks we have in great variety, for Dinner and Evening wear ; also Bonnet Silks and Turquoises, in every new color. Muffs and Collars in every description of Fur. THE DRESS DEPARTMENT was never so well assorted as at present. The richness and quality of the Fabrics, in every variety of shade, constitute the great attraction. -pwRESSMAKING. — We have been inI ) duced, through the difficulty we find Ladies experience in procuring a good fit, to make arrangements with high-class Dressmakers, so that Ladies now favoring us with their orders may depend on style, lit, and finish. We have received this month the first of a series of French Patterns, and can make up the, very latest mode with auy modifications that may be desired. TN SKIRTS we have a large assortment of JL Silk, Satin, Felt, Serge, Wincey, Alpaca, Sateen, and Italian Cloth.

All White Flannelß, Colored Flannels, Crimean Flannels, and every article in Woollen Goods, we are selling at the present English cost. Every quality of Kaikorai and Nelson Colonial Flannel now in stock ; also, Mosgiel Tweeds, bought at exceptional terms, m order to introduce these goods to the Napier public. TN REAL EIDER DOWN QUILTS, J. LADIES' and GENTLEMEN'S DRESSING GOWNS, we have a large assortment in every size.

Infant's Wool Boot to j the most elegaut Wool Shawl for a lady. We have at least 150 different kinds and varieties. I IN the FANCY DEPARTMENT we pro- j vide every month for the introduction j of extreme Novelties per mail steamer. ; i^j ENTLEMEN'S MERCERY and OUTVJT FITTING DEPARTMENT.— In this, I as in every other department, we keep none but really first-class goods. We have now a magnificent assortment of Geelong and Mosgiel Tweed Suits made up in the very newest atyle ; also Trousers and Vests of the same cloths. These Garments fit as well, wear better, and come at half the cost of any made to order. A large assortment of Overcoats, Ulsters, and Waterproof Coats. The stock of Gentlemen's Mercery, Shirts, Flannels, Silk Shirts, Scarfs, Collars, Hosiery, &c, will be found far cheaper than any other house. Umbrellas, Walking, Hiding, and Driving Gloves, Portmanteaus, Rugs, Carriage and Railway Rugs, and every article appertaining to an outfit, are of the best description aud the most moderate prices. Boys' and youths' Clothing, Hats, Mercery, &c, have been specially looked after, and none but the best wearing and most useful goods are in stock. On our arrival in Napier in June last, we saw the great want of a really first-class Drapery Establishment — one that could provide the choicest Novelties and the best materials at lower prices than we found prevailing. We thoroughly believe we have accomplished this, and that our friends and the public believe it, is evinced by our having been obliged to obtain extra assistants of the very highest talent in their respective Departments, to provide for the increasing trade we have been fortunate in our efforts te secure.
