For sale at half price,—three sewing machines nearly new in good order, also 1,200 bricks; also ono couch and ono spring matrass, very cheap.—Radford and Barlaw. So well are the Nuie grass hats made that the Maoris themselves are deceived by them. They are light, cool, and the most comfortable hat for hot weather, and only cost a tithe of the price of the Maori hats. Trewby Bros, have a large selection of Panama, Nuie grass, and straw hats. Hats in fact to suit everybody. Kummerbunds, cricketing caps and blazers (Pahiatua club colors), white flannel shirts and trousers, regatta, cashinerette, crepe and silk stripe shirts in every size and make at Trewby Brothers, drapers and outfitters. The actual monetary cost of a suit of clothes is no test of its cheapness or otherwise. The cheapest suit is that which lasts longest, fits best and looks best, and this combination you can only secure by patronising a thoroughly practical tailor. A. BLAIR will fit you to a nicety with a suit from his largo and firstclass stock of goods. jy3l A\ hat is thought of a man who pays 25 j per cent more for an article that comes , from a large centre than lie could get the j same for in his own village. We think j the general verdict would be that he has more money than he knows what to do j with. If you want to save 25 per cent and get a well-fitting suit equal to anything you have had the pleasure of wearing, go to Trewby brothers. You will get as good a suit there for £3 3s as other tailors charge £5 5s for. Support local industry. It takes very little money now-a-days to make a gentleman, so far as clothes go. We notice that complete outfits, including a suit of clothes, pair of boots, sox, shirt, and folt hat are now to be had at Trewby Brothers’ clearance sale for the astonish- ! ingly low sum of 22s fid. A person must be j hard up indeed if he can’t sport a new I outfit »t such a price. Here is a good parody on Longfellows “ Psalm of Life” : “ Tell me not in mournful numbers’’ Advertising dosen’t pay. For t lie man’s “non compos mentis” Who would such an absurd thing sav. “ Life is real! life is earnest! ” And the man who hopes to rise To eminence in any calling Must expect to advertise. “In the world’s broad field of battle, In the conflict of real life,” Advertising is the magnet Of achievement in the strife. Lives of rich men all remind us, “ We can make our own sublime,” And by liberal advertising To the highest summit climb. “ Let us then be up and doing,” In this sheet your “ ads.” insert; “ Still achieving, still pursuing,” Business will then be alert.
