« Yorkshire Steel Co. Opens Agency m Wellington. The "V.5.C.," manufactured by tho Yorkshire Steel Coy., is well known to be the finest razor stael In the world. The Yorkshire Co., whose advertisement appears on the front puge of this paper, have opened a New Zealand agency m the N.Z. Insurance. Co.'s buildings, Lambton-quay, Wellington. The Company has often been asked to supply blades for other razors, and are now doing so. Blades for Gillette, Auto-Strop, "Olemak," "Ever Ready," and other popular makes, are kept m stock by the Wellington agents. Every man who shaves himself should mude the acquaintance of the "Y.S.C" Razor Blade. The Company's own razor, the "Y.S.C." Is as great an advantage on the American, English and other makes as, indeed, they were an Improvement on the orlginul safety razor of sixty years ago. On the "Y.S.C." razor a thin narrow blade Is stretched tight, like the string of a bow. The tension has the same effect (only to a greater degree) as dipping a razor In hot water. As one enthusiastic user says, "the result Is as though the beard was being brushed off with a feather." On receipt of n post card the agents will post booklet telling all about the "Y.S.C." The Yorkshire Steel Company's guarantee goes with ull their goods, and one thing to be remembered at this time is that it Is an all British Company making all British goods.
