Store : Manners Street, Wellington. ; riIHE Committee of the above Society resJL pectfully inform members, and the public generally, that the store has now been in existence over twelve months, and has satis* factorily proved to thoae who have taken active part in its working the immense advantages of tho Co-operativo principle, which it is believed only requires to be better known to be more fully appreciated. The object of the Society is to improve the social condition of its members by retaining amongst themselves the ordinary proGt. of shopkeepers, and dividing it in proportion to the amount of goods each has purchased from tho store, without reference to tho number of shares held. As all profit beyond nctuol working expenses ia proportionately divided, the holding of Bitnply one sharo entitles a member to evei'y benefit. Tho principle ot Co-operation is making rapid progress both in England and America, and the Committee trust that the people of Wellington wi 11 pee that it is to thuir interest to join in this mutually aiding system of trading, and fo rid themselves of having to pay other people's debts, as is the case under the competitive system. Shares £1 each, payablo at Is per week. 32vevy information obtainable at the Store, j Manners street. The Price List will compare favorably with 1 any shop in town. Good articles and full weight guaranteed. ft .B. — The Committee specially caution the. public against pretended Co-operative Stores, which are only a trap to catch the unwary, by taking advantage of a name to which they have no just claim, being simply ordinary shops under a borrowed title. A, Y. ROSS, Acting Secretary.
