H. Milugan's Waitaki House, Thames-street, Oamaru, where they will find the above adage carried out.—J. H. Milligan, Milliner, Draper, Tailor, and Eoot and Shoe Importer.— [Adyt.] Our Kew Zealand Industries. —Messrs. ETallenstein Bros., manufacturers and whole : 3ale warehousemen, of the New Zealand Clothing Factory, following the example of si,me of the large manufacturers at Home, and more especially with a view of preventing the importation of English clothing, are opening extensive retail establishments in the large centres of population. For this purpose they have lately fitted up commodious premises in Messrs. Shrimski and Moss' buildings, Thames-street, where the sale of their manufactures will be thrown open direct to the public of Oamaru. This branch, which will be opened on Saturday, April 7, will be under the immediate management of Mr. R. C. Lindsay, and under the personal supervision of Air. B. Hallenstein, the head of the New Zealand firm. Messrs. Halleustein Bros., under the management of Mr. Anderson, started the New Zealand Clothing Factory about three years ago. Tlicv c-oiv;.if-.;.c-.'i. on a comparatively small .sij-Ue. ':,-., i.i. i-roeni; they employ between oNlit and 4"U people. They had to overcome many difficulties, and much prejudice, and especially the persistent opposition on the part of the larger houses, glutting this market with imported goods, and no doubt the retailers found it to their advantage to push these in preference to local manufactures. The proprietors of the New Zealand Clothing Factory have therefore judiciously decided to introduce their manufactures direct to the large consuming population of New Zealand, arid in order to do so effectually, they have determined to sell a single garment at the wholesale price. The selling price is to be .marked in plain figures on every article, from which no abatement will be made. The business is to he conducted strictly on the cash principle, and all goods must be paidfor on delivery, but any article not found suitable may "be exchanged, or the money returned. As will be seen from the garments exhibited, the public will now be able to choose from the largest stock of men's, youths', and boys' clothing, superior in style and quality, and at a proportionately 1 >wer price to anything that can be imported. But, irrespective of all these advantages, it is to the interest of everyone to support an industry which employs New Zealand labor, and is a direct benefit to the butcher, baker, farmer, mechanic, shopkeeper, merchant, and to everyone in the community.—[Advt.]
