S. D. and Co have now placed this advantageous system of business within the reach of the New Zealand public, and here remind all that, by dealing direot with | them, the actual manufacturers, every customer saves three large profit a—the London Wholesale Dealeis* Profit, the Colonial Wholesale Dealers' Profit, and the Colonial Retail Dealers' Profit—in all over one hundred per cent, saved to each purchaser.
