HARD TIMES AND HOW TO REMEDY THEM. THE leading , question that is uppermost in everyone's mind, and that is turning our hair grey, is—How are we to get through the coming winter ? One remedy 11. B. would suggest is, don't pay Is lor a tin of Column's mustard when you can get it for 10d, eat plenty of oatmeal at 8s l)d per bag, and buy good tea at 2s 3d per lb. Another remcly is lo buy a mousetrap for Gd, to prevent the little beggars from emptying your cupboards. Also cultivate your gardens, every corner of them ; don't let a weed grow (allce same as H. B.) 'lhe undersigned will supply you with the newest and best Garden Seeds at the lowest prices. Then, again, shoot plenty of Acclimatisation Society's (Nr»!) sparrows and pigeons, thereby saving butcher's meat. Finally, keep the cash in Akaroa, and buy ait 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 hhhit to Bitun Wator Colors, Mapping Pens Perfumery, Confectionery Ironmongery of every description Building Materials Lime and Cement Wasting Powder Sausage Machines Bath Bricks Dust-shot lor Sparrows Babies' Cradles Tomahawks etc., etc., etc. H.
