REFORM YOUR TAILORS' BILLS. THE PROPRIETOR OF THE MONSTER CLOTHING HALL, LONDON STREET, LYTIELTON. JN consequence of his increasing business, is about to enlarge his premises, and he is determined that the public shall lrave the benefit of his IMMENSE STOCK of" EVERY DESCRIPTION OF CLOTHING, Suitable for ail ages and conditions, at such prices as will ensure a rapid sale, to make room for his NEW GOODS COMING DIRECT FROM HOME. It would be superflous to emjjnerate the prices of inferior goods, for he particularly wishes the public to know that he does not keep them in stock. His goods are supplied direct from the best houses in London, who have a wide-world reputation. The garments are all cut by experienced hands, are made up by the best workmen, and far superior to any that can be manufactured in this province. THE SUBJOINED LIST OF PRICES ARE FOR A FEW OF HIS FIRST-CLASS GOODS ONLY, And are submitted for the information of those who have been in the habit of paying higher prices for their clothing, and have not yet visited the Monster Clothing Hall:— s. d. s. d. Men's tweed suits, from ... ... 40 0 Boys' Bedford cord ditto 40 0 Men's super black ditto 70 0 Boys'tweed trousers 6 6 Men's black sac coats ... ... 24 0 Boys'cord ditto 5 0 Men's super ditto .. 35 0 Boys' moleskin ditto 5 0 Men's doeskin ditto.; 30 0 Men's tweed trousers 12 6 Men's tweed ditto 12 6 Men's super black ditto 18 0 Men's alpaca ditto 7 6 Men's Bedford cord ditto ... ... 18 0 Boys' tweed coats 6 6 Men's drill ditto 9 6 Boys' satin vests 3 6 Men's plain and fancy vests ... 6 6 Boys' black cloth suits 45 0 Men's oioleskin trousers 6 6 Over-coats, pilot jackets, flannel, merino and lambswool undershirts, white dress shirts, regattas, and every description of clothing and hosiery, too numerous to particularise in an advertisement. Experience proves that inferior goods are dear at any price; quality alone is the test of cheapness, therefore the proprietor would respectfully invite one trial, to prove the superiority of his clothing. He intends to keep in stock a first-class assortment of the best qualities in PIECE GOODS, BOOTS ANP SHOES, AND ALL KINDS OF HOSIERY; ALSO A STOCK OF m MATTRESSES, PALLIASSES, AND PILLOWS ; And other miscellaneous goods, which will be offered at the smallest remunerating profit. JUST RECEIVED, SEVERAL CASES, CONSISTING OF PAPER COLLARS, FELT HATS, CRIMEAN SHIRTS, AND SOME FINE CABBAGE TREE HATS. Persons living in the bays, and from up-country, visiting Lyttelton, will find it to their advantage to make their purchases of clothing at his establishment. J. LEWIS ELLIS, ■ s llt 5093 * PROPRIETOR.
