HARD TIMES AND HOW TO REMEDY THEM. rjIHE leading,question, that isupperI most in everyone's; mind, j>and that is turning our hair grey, is—How are we to get through the coming winter ? One remedy H. B. would suggest is, don't pay Is for a tin of Colman's mustard when you can get it for 10d, eat plenty of.oatmeal at 3s 9d per bag, and buygoodteaat'2s 3d per lb. Another remedy is to buy a mousetrap for 6d, to prevent the little beggars from emptying your cupboards. Also cultivate your gardens, every corner of them ; don't let a weed grow (allee same as H. B.) r ihe undersigned will supply you with the newest and best Garden Seeds at the lowest prices. Then, again, shoot plenty of Acclimatisation Society's (No I) sparrows and pigeons, thereby saving butcher's meat. ~Finally, keep the cash, in Akaroa, and buy at the cheapest shop, say at ECONOMY HOUSE, where you can purchase everything, from a Fig to a Fiddlestring, including Babies' Mugs, Tin Pepper Boxes, Dynamite, Concertinas, Alarum Clocks; and Sulphur. also — Crockery, Toys, Tobaccos, Pipes Matches, Fancy Goods Paints, Oils, and Glass Paperhangings School and Reward Books* Stationery, Drawing Papers Drawing Books Pencils, from hhhh to bbbb Water Colors, Mapping Pens Perfumery, Confectionery Ironmongery of every description Building Materials Lime and Cement Blasting Powder Sausage Machines Bath Bricks Dust-shot for Sparrows Babies' Cradles Tomahawks etc., etc., etc. EL BILIjENS, TpCONOMY TTOUSE.
