NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

« THE BEEHIA’E.” GLADSTONE ROAD.

1 Ax old adage says, “ ’Tis not in mortals to ! command success; they may do more, j they may deserve it.” But in the ease of j the above business the proprietoresses seem ! not only to have deserved but to have j commanded it by the care and attention j they have shown in the selection of their I goods and the reasonable prices which I they charge. In visiting that well-known I emporium, *• The Beehive,” one sees ! everything that is pleasing to the eye and | that tends to improve the mind. There are story books and novels and books of the highest class, newspapers and periodicals, and toys ad lib. All those nicknacks which the gentler sex find so much use for are to be had in great variety ; in fact, in the well-known words, one may briefly sum up, “ There are books for saints and playthings for sinners.” Town and country residents will do well to call and inspect the thousand and one novelties at " The Beehive.”

A.M.P. SOCIETY.

For a magnificent success the Australian Mutual Provident Assurance Society stands among the foremost offices of the world, and its directorate must be a strong and capable one to have achieved the phenomenal success this company can fairly claim. Its terms arc certainly more moderate, and the arrangements more elastic than the general run of life insurance offices, and its enormous capital should command the confidence of those wishing to insure, and in these enlightened days those who desire to insure are practical! v the whole communitv. j

HENNF.SSY FOR DEPENDABLE^

The originality displayed by .Mr Yv. .J; Hcnnessy, boot importer, of Gladstone road, in the form of his advertisements is carried out by him in his business. He spares no pains to have the latest fashions and styles in boots and shoes, whilst the prices, considering the quality of the goods are exceedingly low. Mr Hcnnessy purchased the business of Messrs Hannah and Co., in Gisborne, and has certainly not allowed the grass to grow under his feet, and his striking trade motto, “Hennessy for Dependables,” should be known throughout the district. He has just received several shipments of ladies’, gentlemen’s, and children’s boots and shoes, and an inspection of this stock should well repay a visit.

BYCROFT AND COMPANY, AUCKLAND.

This well-known milling firm, of Auckland, have an important advertisement in this issue, to which the attention of our readers is directed. Their business is a large and growing one, and this is very good evidence of the merits of their productions. An enormous variety of biscuits is manufactured, whilst their “ Snowdrift ” flour is certainly tho best in tho market. It will bo within the recollection of even young people how dependant this colony was a few years back on imported biscuits, but what a change has come about. A few are still imported, but this must be owing to tho fact that new arrivals have not got over their prejudices of tho Old Country and its productions.

B. S. COX, PHOTOGRAPHER.

In tho last decade no art lias made such advances as that of photography, and New Zealand has nothing to bo ashamed of in comparing her position with tho larger cities of tho older world in this respect. Photographs of Now Zealand command attention by tho best collectors at Home as marvels of accuracy and beauty, and we venture to say that the photographs of our fellow townsman Mr Cox will rank among the best produced in this colony. All the latest improvements in connection with tho art have been obtained by Mr Cox, and all classes of photographic work are undertaken, his leading idea being as it should bo, to keep abreast of tho times. A visit to tho Gisborne Photographic Studio will afford pleasure and instruction to all.

AV. N. ATTAA’OOD, FURNISHING ESTABLISHMENT.

For now goods or second-hand within the range of his establishment Mr W. N. Attwood’s store deserves more than passing notice. Here we find furniture, pictures, books, crockery, 'and tools of all description in endless variety, in fact the proverbial expression “ from a noodle to an anchor” is well exemplified. No matter what articles of furniture you require you can obtain them. Mr Attwood, in addition to being a buyer and importer of furniture, is also a maker to a large extent. Gisborne will require to be a much larger town before it overtaxes Mr Attwood’s resources to meet with its requirements.

E. PARNELL AND CO., IRON MONGERS.

Whichever way wc turn we require the

services of the ironmonger. Whether it bo in furnishing a houso, running a trade, tilling the soil, or the matter of a picnic, we have to seek his aid. The old established firm of Messrs E. Parnell and Co., in Gladstone road, is so well and favorably known to most of our readers that to enlarge on their merits is but “to paint the lily or gild refined gold.” They keep a large stock of the usual requirements of the business. This stock has been most carefully selected from the best manufacturers, and is offered at prices which cannot be eclipsed. Several new shipments of ironmongery are now being opened up, and the firm invite an inspection of the same.

NEW ZEALAND CLOTHING FACTORY (MESSRS HALLENSTEIN BROS.)

This firm is well known throughout the whole of New Zealand, having a number of branches in the leading towns. The Gisborne establishment was opened in 18S3, and since 1890 has been most efficiently managed by our fellow-townsman, Mr C. H. Am’oridge, who is to be complimented upon the successful position in which he has placed the affairs of this branch. Messrs Hallcnstein Bros, are large and liberal employer’s of labor, having h. their Dundin factory no less than seven hundred men and women, who are employed in the manufacture of clothing, waterproofs, and shirts. By notice i i another column, it will be seen that in future all goods manufactured by the firm will bear the trade mark “ H. 8.” The Company took the leading part in the equipment of the New Zealand contingents, and the rush of work which this necessarily meant kept the firm going at a high pressure, the allotted period which the firm’s employees were allowed to work in the matter of overtime being quickly exhausted. The quality of the firm's goods is excellent, and the normal prices are extremely moderate, whilst the fact that the firm are such large employers of labor constitutes in itself a good argument in favor of the public giving Messrs Hallenstein Bros, a fair share of their patronage.
