ZEALANDIA HOUSE. A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS. IF you ask any person in the town what Firm of Drapers does the best business, they will, without hesitation, tell you Macdonald's, of course ; if you ask anyone living in the country who they get their supply of Drapery from, they will invariably tell you that for Solid Value J. Macdonajtd and Co. are the most reliable, quality and price considered, and, as a natural consequence, do the bulk of the Country Business. It is very gratifying to us to have such a number of testimonials. We are more determined than ever to not only maintain the position we hold, but if possible to improve it. It may be asked how it is to be done. Well, there is only one way, and that is to sacrifice part of our profit (which has never been large). We have resolved to CUT DOWN THE PRICES during the Winter Months, even below a " living profit." We hope the inhabitants of the Town and District will respond in a manner equal to the liberal concessions we are making. We are continually getting New Goods in. Our Stock embraces all that is " Endurable. Whether your requirements are small or great, you will find the Value the same. You will be accorded the same civility.
