Christmas presents free of charge.—Last year we are informed that over 9,000 presents were given away during December and the early part of January by H, E. May & Co., The Hall, Christchurch, This year they are doing the same, and this is how they do it : Every customer is presented with a ticket equal to 10 per cent, on the amount spent by them, so that if you spend Lio you can choose anything up to Li, if is spent a 10s present will be given, if L 3 a 6s present, if j-l a 2s present, but if you only spend One Shilling you will get something. And every Unit you come during this month of December and up to January the 6th you will get a present. If you do not wish to spend a lot of money in one day’s shopping you can get your tickets for what you have spent, and so on each time you come, and then get one ready handsome thing equal in value to all the tickets you hold.^-[ADVT.J
