ViOTORU HOUSEGREAT COMPULSORY Sale, ts:ok>otjc3-s: l it GENUINE tsozrottgkh: l it GENUINE AND OF PROFOUND INTEREST TO EVERY PROVIDER. Mrs LACWIT : Try as I may, Mrs Wisely, I cau never have the luck of buying that you have. Mrs WISELY: I can quite under stand that, my dear— because your mouth's ever watering after Dead Sea fruit. Low-priced goods as a rule are not the cheapest. Thpre are a gr«.at mnuy more thau Moses, with his grosses of green spestaclcs (in the '* Vicar of Wakefield") have, to their sorrow, verified iha^ fact. However, there are exceptions to all established rules; aud it is just now onr fixed determination, for a short time, whatever tbe loss, to make a distinct exception to this one, by respectfully and courteously inviting everyone, throughout the length and breadth of the District ot Taranaki, to come and see first-class goods, oUering — well, what shall I say? — at who-ever-could-imagine-it low piices. A few moments' gentle patience will be well spent in carefully looking over the prices of the various articles that are herewith submitted for the consideration of purchasers. As there are not very likely many, either of families or of single persons, but may pick up something, on their reading these under lines, that they are particularly in need of, and who ere now would probably have provided themselves with, had they had the remotest idea that they could be procured for so small a sum- quite at random, as it were, we will begin with Cotton fchirting, which we offer at tivepence halfpenny; a few yenrs ago it would have brought double the money. Our Union shirting, super-excellent quality, we are letting go at ninepence Crimean Shirting, all that is desirable, is offered at one shilling and fourpence. Anyone can now be furnished with that indispensable article, Cotton Tickiog, for ihe moderate conside ration of sevenpence; and should Union Ticking be preferred, that v\o have reduced to one shillit g. There is a large stock of Striped Hessian, which can be had at ninepence. Homespun ht iivepence, and a more superior quality at sixpence. What next ? may reasontbly be wondered at. Extra good Winceys positively a* sixpence, ('ould it be supposed that strong, sound Tweed — the opposite, quite, of shoddy — could be sold at two shillings? But such is the case — sign of the times, isn't it? — and, by hivingit double-width, only three shillings and ninerence. Double-width Cloth in blue and brown incredibly low, at four shillings. Clearly evident bargains in Brown Serge, which we are cisposing of at tenpencj. Printed Moles in the piece at two shillings. White and Grey Calicoes from three shillings per dozen. Seventy-two incu White Sheeting one shilling, and Grey for a trifle lebs. UubleacheJ i able Damask one shilling aud sixpence, and White down to two shillings and fourpence?
