BLANKETS will never fee seen at these prices again, as wool has now risen so much. All Household goods are similarly affected, as everything is dearer in the home markets. What we offer now is simply stock on hand which in accordance with our hard and fasb rule must go before Stocktaking. It was all bought before the rise and is quoted at old bed-r< ck prices. When any article is sold it cannot be replaced at the same price. NOW is the time for prudent housekeepers to lay in stocks. A great many other articles are also much cheaper than we can no w buy them, coneequently the Entire List should be read carefully.

To this we can only reply that the reductions represent the whole Of Our profit, and in many instances far more than our profit. If we put more profit on in the first case we could take more off at sale time, but we believe our system of small profits and quick returns to be the best. Everything is always marked ill plain figures, bo the bona fides of the reductions can be verified Of course everyday goods, such as Calicoes, &c, that we can sell at any time through the year ■we don't find it necessary to reduce below cost (unless overstocked) ; but the reductions even on these goods wiil make fi welcome saving to the canny housewife.
