Where to get the evening 1 dress suit? Why, at Pv.ckreli'e, of course. Ever make enquiries why so many dress raits aro made at Buckrell's? Do so before placing your order.

When ladies' fashionable jackets, can be bought for 2s lid, and children's jackets ditto, one would naturally expect to- hear of the seller standing «* th « fountain, and giving them away. Tke 2s lid figttre is right, though. The jackets were ticketed up at Buckrell'a to-day., -

No one need go further than Dexter'a Furnishing Warehouse for carpet squares, Mr Dexter, when at Home -recently, . personally selected a fine cpUection, comprising tome weaves and colours quite new to this town. Anyone about to buy carpets cannot do better than pay Dexter a visit.

Mr E., Ellery Gilbert has something of interest to say, regarding pianos in another column. -There is no getting away from the fact that Mr Gilbert has » fine stock of high-grade-, pianoa-^pianos that sell on their merits and give the buyers everlasting satiofaction. The terms ho .offers, too, makes the purchase of a piano possible to everyone.

Mr J. C. Richardson reports that business Is bigger and better than ever. The keystone of good health is pure food, and nothing but the best in ' every line is handled at the St. John'e istore. Mr Richardson's watchword ib 'the best for the money," and the best can't be bettered. Bring along any price is a standing invitation.

Crichton and Newman have the Wanganui Agency for the Pingree Company, the most popular American boot on tho market. , Better leather has never been tanned ,than goes into these boots, whilo the shape, style and finish cannot be beaten. Remember there is only one place in Wang'arfui where they c&n be procuTed, viz.T— from Crichton and Newman, Ridgway

It is surely the bottom depth of price cutting when a dress length of the best tweeds, zebelines and serg-es can be bought for 12s 6d. This offer is actually made by Messrs , Esau and Co. in their advertise ment- to-day. . The materials are all bright, new, fashionable goods, hut arrived too late in the colony to catch the early winter market. The firm have thus been able to buy at practically their own price and to sell at a rate that will surprise the keenest ■. bargain- seeker.' .-JSeemff-'-is -believing, .and. an opportunity for b'pih will be afforded to-night when there will be a gas-light display. These dress offerings constitute the bargain event of a bargain season.

"Learn well that you may succeed well," is a good maxim, and this is a rule that all who wish to attain to good positions in life should remember". The American School of Correspondence teaches any subject required, and catalogues and free lists can be obtained at the District Agency. Mr Voyce has several students undergoing courses, carpenters, electrical engineers, etc., and all state- that they are thoroughly satisfied with the up-to-dateness and care givtn. by the School's management. This is the time in the world's history when the man who learns most gets the best position and salary, and it behoves all to be ambitious in their -desire to rise above the ordinary level of life. Mr Voyce, Ridgway Street, will give all information, either by Tetter or personal interview.

The season for gardening operations is round again, and Messrs Laird and Sons draw attention to their fine stock of plants and seed potatqes. This firm are well up-to-date in new plants, and are offering such fine varieties o£ apples aa Delicious, S.axiator, Statesman, Allington Pippin, etc. Peaches, PeaTß, Plumß, Gooseberries Strawberries, etc., are also in fine variety. Messrs Laird and Sons have » fine collection of the world-famed Japanese flowering Cherries; an article lately appeared in a Southern paper dealing with "Autumw tints," and referred to the cherries, "which are such splendid objects in the Spring when hung in rich profusion with masses of double white or Tose or pint blossoms, seem determined not to rest without giving another display of colour, ' this time in crimson and bronze. When Been in their beauty, untortured by knife or shears, one no longer wonders thatthe Japs should hold a fete day in their, honour."' We need not attempt to go further down the list, but would simply advise intending planter* to go and see the stock for themselves or obtain full particulars and a catalogue from the town depot, opposite the Catholic Church.
