D. J. CALDWELL, IRONMONGER, EXTBACT PROM LETTER. \\f HILE we were m Timaru Miss VV took us to BUDD'S. This is tht place they call the Timaru " Freeman," and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. They provide you with a pretty Japanese teapot of tea, and you pour it out for yourselves. It is so homelike and cosy. Should you go to Timaru, I should advise you to call there for afternoon tea. The cakes and fancy biscuits are delicious, quite equal to anything you get m Christchurch or Dunedin. They have a very large 'assortment of all those delicious chocolates we were talking about when I saw you last. They tell me BUDD is quite an artist m Wedding Cakes. I saw a splendid one there, also a very pretty Christening Cake, with such a dear little cradle on it, made ol the same stuff they make Wedding Cake ornaments of, the coverlet being a delicate pale blue silk. He has a splendid Wedding Cake stand and knife which he lets out on hire. Altogether I think the place is quite " up to date." BUDD, •• THE '! CONFECTIONER^ Timaru.
