TO THE PUBLIC. ALL through these oppressive times the volume of our business has steadily increased. We take no particular credit for this, we simply consider it a case of sound commercial principles being applied to an appreciative people, and a fair amount of confidence being placed by all parties. Our affairs are m splendid order at the present time. We offer a stock comparatively speaking, small — like the British army — but the very best of its kind, and every item reliable on all occasions. IN DRESSES. See our Tweeds, 5s lid to 27s 6d a Dress. Our Merinos and Cashmeres, double-width, Is 4id to 4s lid. Our Fancy All-wools, 8s 3d to 23s 6d a Dress. Our Serges, double-width, Is 4id to 3s lid. Our Natte", Damasse, and Habit Cloths. MANCHESTER. See our Sheetings, our Flannels, our Blankets, our Flannelettes, our Window Hollands, our Cretonnes and Art Muslins, the development of art schools; while hard cash being the motor we place them at prices that surprise everyone. IN GLOVES. L'lsere, The Marie, Comfort, Ivanhoe, Viking, Loriol Suede, Tally-ho, Riding, and even the modest 4-dome Cusella at Is Hid, are unequalled. The Rival 9id, The Challenge Hid, Dauntless m Cashmere, and we have a good low-priced Glove at 6id. Knitted Wool and Cycling makes from Is 3d. IN HOSIERY. The No. 70, 1.8., Baroness, and Johnson's makes for Boys are not excelled at the prices, which commence at 9id for small sizes, up to Is Oid a size. IN SHOW ROOM. Our Jackets are the talk of the town. Children's Wear, Mantles, Capes, Waterproofs, have gone equally well ; while our Millinery is tasteful, and we do not charge for style. IN FANCY. Velveteen at Is 6d and 2s 6d m colours, have gone all over N.Z., while Black commences at Is 2id up to 3s 9d. Our Embroideries, our Umbrellas, our Laces, our Ribbons, our Plushes, are m beautiful selection, but we carry everything required for every class. IN SMALL WARES. We supply all sorts and conditions of men, and hardly know ourselves frequently what is done with the large quantity of goods taken up here. We aspire to smart catering for the people. We put down large sums of money often. We take all risks. Present everything required at the proper time and only ask for reciprocal relations. T. AND J. THOMSON, GENERAL DRAPERS.
