Note Address — Premises lately occupied by Mr H. Bowie, Storekeeper. To the Gentlemen of Lake County. Now that the season is coming on, when you will require your summer suits, you will be pestered with travellers from the slop factories, or their agents in the shape of amateur measurers in every little store in the district. I would give ypu a word of warning If you prefer slops, scud direct to the factory for them and you will get them for about half the price the agents charge you, and they are dear at tire money then.

If I charge you a fair price for garments, I give you full value. How would some of you like to be offered £2 10s for your gold ? I think I hear you ! Well, it’s just the same with me. I give you style aud quality that cannot be excelled in New Zealand. But if you want to be known as “Johnny from the Shotover ” when you go to the City get the slops (the townspeople will not have them) and they think anything is good enough for the back blocks, and by crushing down poor tailoresses they can send out travellers, aud still make their profit. Treat these ageuts as you would the book fiend, and you will be right, I am, yours faithfully, W. SKLBY. Arrowtowu, September 2, 1895.
