BUSINESS NOTICES. A AiSTU T. INGLIS. GEORGE STREET, Dunedin ; PRINCES STREET, Dunedin ; ROYAL AROADE, Dunbdin j 29 H AMSEL STREET, London, We beg respeotfully to announce that we have this day concluded our stock taking for the year ending 31st March, 1880, and in accordance with our announcement of 7th February, we had intended to launch the* business for our New Year on J CO-OPERATIVE CASH PRINCIPLES. We find this impossible until our books are balanced. This will take nearly a month. Therefore to prevent disappointment to those ho have held back lneir Autumn Purvases, hoping to benefit under our proposed NEW SYSTEM, We have determined to continue Selling present Stock and Fresh Imports (specially bought for us in the Best Markets of the World), at SALE PRICES, For, say, 30 Days, or until such time as we are able to lay before our Patrons our New System in its entirety. By this means all our friends who have refrained from buying, and the public generally, will receive as great and immediate advantages as if our business was reorganised on the proposed plan. It Is quite unnecessary! to dilate] on the advantages offered during the past Sale. They have been fully appreciated, and are now widely known. The esteem In whioh they have been held is proved by the best of all tests, viz., the amount of business done. Our return for February and Maroh, 1880, is from 27£ per cent, to 30 per cent, in excess of the same period of 1879. Andjyet these are bad times ! These results are quite independent of^the NEW BRANCHES, SUCH AS DEALERS IN HISTORICAL CURIOSITIES, WAXWORKS, DIORAMAS, AND CHEAP FOOD FOR THE PEOPLE, And relate exclusively to our Business as Merchants, MANWACTURERd, and Retailers. AUTUMN AND WINTER STOCK. We are now opening up 179 Oases and Bales ex recent arrivals, which we have no space to enumerate. These were chiefly bought before the recent very heavy advances in prloe, and may be relied upon as thoroughly Good Value. At the ordinary selling price they would be extremely cheap for £12,500, But they are all being marked off to Sell for the total sum of £10,000. A discriminating Publio will thus understand we are offering £12,500 worth of Extra Cheap goods for £10,000— NOT IN ONE LOT. Buyers of the Smallest Parcels receive proportionate Reductions. Purchasers of bare necessaries are in the matter of trade advantages on an equality with buyers of the most expensive fabrics. We have nothing more to add save this : In the past what we have promised the Public has been faithfully oarried out (hence our sucoess), and It will be so in the future. Stay, there was one little <mission — we promised to exhibit the GRISER WASHING MACHINE, ut on two oocassions we were disappointed not getting proper appliances. We hope show it in full working order quite shortly. SPECIAL PURCHASE. About 258 Rolls op China Matting, and a Large Shipment— part of a Bankrupt stock— from Wellington :— Tapestry Carpets, Laoe Curtains, Floorcloths, &c, &o. Cutomers will receive the full benefit at the large concessions we have obtained. ' A. AND T. INGLIS. Dauedin, 2nd April, 1880.
