THE INFLUENZA.
POSITION IN CHRISTCHURCH TO-DAY. Thousands of people are down with Influenza; schools are being closed; business staffs are depleted and everything is topsy turvy. But through it all Joe Bierman the tailor is cheerful. '“Cheerfulness,” he says, “promotes prosperity, creates harmony, increases efficiency. Cheerfulness is the antitheses of the dumps, the blues, and of the swan Song: ‘What’s the use of anything? Nothing at all.’ The funeralfaced man, the chronic grouch, the kicker, the knocker, and the always-on-the-other-side, the good-for-nothing, may be on your pay roll, but take it from me, he is the most expensive polecat on the premises.” It is therefore with a light heart despite the gloomy clouds of Influenza and Unemployment around us, that Joe Bierman continues his offer to make stylish beautiful eight-guinea suits to your individual measure for the low price of five guineas, and for a few days longer only to make a present of a guinea free to everyone ordering a suit from him- Hundreds of men are walking the streets of Christchurch to-day, wearing Joe Bierman suits, feeling a manly pride of possession—knowing that they are wearing the best, and yet with three guineas extra jingling in their pockets. Follow into step—secure the best at the cost of the least. Give Joe Bierman a call at his only address, 599 a, Colombo Street, between Tuam and St Asaph Streets, and order a nice new suit. 6
