This trite saying is fully exemplified in the unfortunate poslI tlon to which oar aggressor, A. Q. Bart* ) lett, has reduced himself, by posing as the spokesman of the Big Profit Watch Dealers, in his quixotic crusade of tilting at facta with the lance of fiction in the vain hope of resuscitating THE FOSSIL REMAINS OF THE DARK AGES OF EXORBIj TANT PROFITS. This ancient gentleman must hare a very low estimate of the intelligence of the Auckland public to dream of ever retain, ing a share of their patronage and confidence after the SELF-INFLICTED EXPOSURE OF HIS TACTICS, As demonstrated in the following EXTRAORDINARY REVELATION. There is still on view at STEWART DAWSON & 00.'a Establishment, VJuaenstreet, AN EHRHARDT WATCH, No. 52276. SOLD BY BARTLKTT FOR £6 TO 0. REYNOLDS. OF THIS TOWN. The above watch, (or which BARTLETT CHARGED £6. IS ONE OF EHRHARDT'S VERY CHEAPEST GRADE. IT WINDS LIKE A GENEVA. HAS LESS WORKS INSIDE, AND 1 COSTS CONSIDERABLY LESS THAN 1 THE ONE HE NOW PROFESSES TO ' SELL FOR £3. NO WONDER HIS CUSTOMERS ARE GALLED WHEN HE SHOWS THEM SO CLEARLY I THE EXTRAORDINARY PROFIT HE HAS B3EN CHARGING THEM.
