THE GREAT SEMI-ANNUAL SALE IS NOW ON. REDUCTIONS AND ARRANGEMENTS OF AN ALTOGETHER UNPRECEDENTED CHARACTER. Tbe hopes indulged in by newspaper editors throughout the Colony, in tbeir artic'es upon the birth of the New Year, seem destined to be realised. Everything points to the fact that we are entering upon an era of prosperity such as the Colony has not known for very many years. Wool is up ; our goldfieldc, thanks chiefly to the influx of foreign capital, were never so productive, aDd as for the coming harvest, it promises to be the best since 1876. Altogether the outlook is most hopeful and encouraging. With prospects so bright people ought to avail themselves of such an opportunity as our Great Semi-Annual Sale affords for making cheap purchases, O' taining choice and useful goods, in many instances at less than one-tbiri their value. Opportunities of this kind do not come every day. Owing to the increased cost of raw materials — wool, cotton, jute, etc. — manufacturers are asking for an advance of from 12£ to 20 per cent, on previous rates. It 6houH be borne in miod, however, that the reductions and allowances we are making are on ih« old prices and not on the new, and that when our present stocks are sold out we shall not b 3 able to replace them at anything like the prices now quoted. With respect to goods of fashion, we have always recognised that the first loss is the beßt, and sooner than carry over the balance of our season's shipment?, we prefer to clear them for whatever they will fetch, and of course iho public reap the benefit. CONDITIONS OP SALE.— lst— All Napery purchased during the Sale will ba hemmed free of charge. 2nd. —All carpets 3s. per yard and upwards will be made up free of charge. 3rd. — All Dresses will be made up in first-class atyle at greatly reduced rates. * "*" VICTORIA HOUSE, CHRISTGHURCH. *"*
