| HAVING JUST REMOVED INTO OUR NEW PREMISES. WE have much pleasure in inviting the pphlic of Marlborough to pay us a visit and inspect our premises and stock, which will he found equal to anything of the kind in the colony. We have spared no expense that j we thought would conduce to the public convenience and comfort, and by taking advantage of all the latest improvements in L jhting and ventilating, we have succeeded in getting spacious and splendidly lighted rooms. Y\ e have arranged them in such a manner that each department is quite separate, and at the same time easily accessible. There are two items we wish to draw the attention of our Lady Emends to, viz., the Dressmaking Department and the Ladies’ Club or Reading Room, Two matters that are very important to both town and country residents. The Dressmaking Department is under the management of Miss Meredith, which is sufficient guarantee that everything in the department will be turned out thoroughly satisfactory in every respect, as her testimonials, references and, work already done will prove. The Ladies’ Club is a novelty here, and it will be round to be a great convenience to both town and country people. It is fitted up comfortably with Lavatory, etc. The latest fashions will be kept on the table for anyone to examine free gratis, and we invite the ladies of Marlborough, as well as visitors from other provinces, to take advantage of and use the rooms freely. Writing materials will also be provided free, and anybody wishing to make an appointment to meet her friends, where they can have a quiet chat, or transact any business they may wish, can do so in this room as freely and comfortably as if she were in her private (dub or hotel, or elsewhere. Persons using the room will not be pressed to buy anything unless they want to. The room is situated so that anyone wishing to use it can go direct to it, and stay as long as she likes, and leave whenever she likes, without being questioned or solicited to purchase. Wo wish it to be clearly understood that this is a public room (for ladies only) and free, and we hope the ladies of Marlborough will make free uec of it. OUR SHIPMENTS OF NEW SPRING GOODS have ARRIVED per s.s. Rimutaki, Coptic, and ltuapehu, and as they comprise all the Latest Novelties, carefully selected by Mr E. J. Litchfield in the Home markets, wo have great confidence that, in submit! ing 1 hem for inspection to the public, we shall be able to please Ihe most fastidious. As the stock has been specially bough! to open the new shop, the quantity is not only larger than usual, but the value is specially good, for the reason that we have marked the prices very low to meet the had times. We are determined to make our establishment not only the largest and best, hut the Cheapest ill the Colony. "We have pointed out before to-day the advantage we have in being the oldest establishment in the province, and also the benefit of Mr E. J. Litchfield’s experience and sound judgment in buying for us, and, as we pay cash and buy direct from the producers, we save ail intermediate profits, and are able to give our customers sound sterling goods at Wholesale Prices. We do not lay ourselves out to keep rubbishy stuff, so that we can quote a long list of absurdly low prices. Our motto has always been to give our customers a really good sterling article at a moderate price, so that they will he satisfied with it, and come hack again. And the soundness of our policy is proved by the fact that our business has gone on steadily increasing for the last 2(5 years, and we intend to try to make it continue to increase, by giving our customers good honest value for their money. With these few introductory remarks, we invite the public to call and inspect our premises and stock, and leave them to judge for themselves as to the choice, style, quality, and value, feeling sure the verdict will be in favor of LITCHFIELD & SON, DRAPERS, CLOTHIERS, & GROCERS.
