A SELL, OR SELLING OFF!!! THIS HISTORY OF THE TRADE AM) HOW IT IS ADVERTISED. F. MUIR, Haviug a slight experience of these things and the way in which it is done will give the public an idea of the way other people do it, and also show you how to do it likewise. You read of one storekeeper selling Crewdson’s calico at 5/6, Muir is doing the same at 5/3. Another sells prints at 4Jd, Muir at jid. A third advertises Boys’ suits at 7/6, Muir at 6,11. Muir had a great sale m Carterton against one of the leading shops in Wellington, yet he found he could compete successfully against all comers, and sold men's tweed trousers at 7/6. He reads of drapers selling black cashmere at 1/9, he simply sells at i/G. He is selling figured sateens at nld yard. Doing lace curtains at a, 11. See? Muir reckons that his stock is too large for his shop, and therefore must reduce men's and boys’ clothing to cost. Fancy selling trousers and vests at 16/6 '! I You read of drapers selling silesias at Cd. Muir can do the same. Read: Stockman’s colored mole trousers, 7, 6. Have you read of men’s black worsted coats being sold for 19/6 ? No; Muir can do it, and more—he can sell large size dimity counterpanes at 4/11. We read all sorts of advertisements from Wellington to entice the settlers ; but Muir would advise them to try his establishment before going there. He will sell cretonnes at ■lyh ; figured damask, at -/roj ; and, if you believe in a cheap thing, try his wincey, at •, o. One draper sent out a paper with red stars on it, but Muir believes in the cloud with a silver lining, and, to obtain this, is selling black velveteen at 2/ per yard. Another firm has a sheet of black paper covered with a red scrawl; but Muir can give you a clean sheet-ing at 2/ per yard. Another paper has a large round ring for you to fix your imagination on; but Muir asks you to line your pockets with rings of silver, then purchase a large parcel at his CASH CLEARING SALE, and when you get home, find your imagination realised in a bargain.

DON’T GO SHABBY. F. MUIR would ask you to call and see for yourself. You can see enough at the door and windows to satisfy you that it is a genuine cash clearing sale, and that you can obtain value, for your money. The sale will be for Fourteen days only as he wishes to proceed with the alteration of his premises before the winter trade sets in.
