CARTER & CO.'S D.I.C. and R.M.D.C. Wo moan to tako tbo public entirely into onr confidence ovor this D.I.C. business. D.I.C. in our case stands for Direct Importing Company, and wo are the only Drapers iv Hawko's Bay who can honestly lay claim to tlio title. Wo will prove it. To import from a nomo wholesale nouse is, of course, Importing, but the Homo wholesalo House gets a prollt. Tho tradesman hero has to pay 10} per cent, on the profit, and then tho tradesman's customers havo to pay him a good proflt on both. Now, wo avoid all this by Importing DIRECT from the manufacturer, thus saving a double profit and double duty, and this is why wo can sell so much cheaper than •our neighbors. All our Hollands, Diapers, and Linen goods aro shipped DIRECT from tho largest and best Manufacturing Firm in Bolfnst. All our Calicoes, Shirtings, and Shootings come direct from the Gorton and Manchester manufacturers. AH our Serges come direct from a flrst-classninriiifacturcr at Slaithwoito, near Huddersiield. All our Floorcloths and Linoleums como direct from tho mills at Lancastor. All our Flannels como direct from Rochdale, and the Wolsh from Newtown. All our carpots and Hearthrugs como direct from Halifax and Dundee. All our Hosiery direct from Loicostor and Nottingham, and so on right through tho Stock, oven down to our Pins and Needles, which ivo get respectively direct from Birmingham and Reddilch, and when tho Goods arrive hero we sell at less than half tho proflt Credit Drapers havo to obtain, as we sell only for READY MONEY. If nnyono disbelieves us we will willingly allow thorn to inspect our Invoices, nnd they can see for thomsolves thnt we state only the truth. We havo been established in Napier exactly a yonr, nnd during that timo havo takon only a few pounds short of £12,000 in Cash. This lnrgo trado has been dono too by an entire stranger, who camo here without any local help or inllucnco nnd ono half killed by the Dunedin climnto at that, and this wo say satisfactorily proves that tho public know when they get good vnluo given them, and tako good oaro tc go whore thoy can get it: and it is solely on the ground of tho ono word VALUE that wo asked for and havo obtained the liberal support of tho Hawke's Bay Cashpaying Public. Wo state theso facts not with any desire to blow or boast, but Bimply to plaoe tho mattor fairly and truthfully beforo you at a timo whon the newspapers are deluged with misleading assertions and palpable puff. In conscquonce of the splendidly successful results of tlie past year's business we shall start tho next with a general reduction in Sroflt, nnd bave commenced with tho New ioods ox Aorangl, which are now marked off at 7h per cent, (or Is Gd in tho £1) less profit, than the scale wo have hitherto adoptod, and we shall trust ontiroly to tho public to help us through another yoar on this basis, Although wo aro selling cheapor than anybody else wo shall not lay down any ridiculous or prohibitory rules to frighten. our customors with. Wo shall bo happy to exchange any articlo in tho futuro (as wo havo always been in tho past), or if desired wo at all times return tho money, ns wo nover wish a customer to keep an articlo that thoy find unsuitable. In the caso of Millinery and Dressmaking Orders, wo nro so certain of boing ABLE to please that wo absolutolyguarantee to refund any money paid if porfoct satisfaction is not given. Wo aro tho only flrm in tho colony whoso customers can claim this great advantage, tho too frequent result with many houses boing to have the dress spoilt and havo to pay a very bigh price as woll. You can depend on being served with overy nttontion and civility by a largo staff of comSotont assistants of both sexes. Tho Millinery lopartmont is under the chargo of a tnstoful and successful Milliner from tho leading Auckland Houses. If not absolutely tho best in Napier, at any rato thore aro no better, ond our charges aro considerably less than you hnvo hithorto had to pay. Tho Drossmnklng Dopartmont is undor tho pcrsonul managomont of MRS CARTER, formorly Head Dressmaker for Herbert Hayncs and Co., and Carter and Co., Dunedin, whero she left a Dressmaking Trado employing over thirty hands, which had been built up entirely by hor own ability. Our most convincing proof of having given satisfaction in Napier is tho fact that sovoral ladios who formerly sent to Auckland, Wellington, and oven London, to got their Dresses mado, now place their ordors with us. During tho coming season wo shall strain, ovory norvo to glvo our customers tho very host valuo obtninablo in every dopartmont in • • tho Houso, and although some thoro are, wo know, who do not liko going into now shops, still, if tbey would favor us with ouo visit of inspection, wo would bo satisfled to leave tho result to their own judgment.
