WATCH THIS SPACE. I LADIES AND GENTLBMEN, [~T is a well known fact that in a large L city like Chrlstchurch many eo called ■-Selling Off Pales" occar whloh are "UTTER SHAMS," simply got np for the purpose of getting" rid of the accumulated OLD STOCK of YEAKS, with the usual Stale Announcement of " Compulsory Sale " Effort," "Stock Taking OlearancOß," ''Arrival of New Goods " Ac, &c. A few minutes' calm reflection will be sure to convince you that these "Selling Off Houses" have IMMENSE BENTS and EXPENSES to pay, which, mark you, must come direct from the POCKET of the CUSTOMER. And last, but not least, remains the startling fact that LARGE SHOPS ounnot be built out of LO3SE3. Having thus, I trust, brought your minds into a condition to discriminate between the SHAM and the BEAL, you will at once recognise that it is a well known faot that I have NO OLD STOCK ; that my Expenses are ALMOST NOTHING; that I have started in Kiver's Buildings only four months j th»t my Purchases have been FOR CASH ; that my Shop Is Crammed with GOODS, bought at a great loss to the Importer ; while hundreds of my Customers every day exclaim : " What on earth do you | intend to do with all your Cheap Goods f' Wy answer is; "I Must Sell, for a Large Stock of Spring Stuff has been ordered, and is now on the water." Iherefore every Article In my shop, from a Hairpin to a Bonnet, and from a Bonnet to a Blanket, I shall offer during July and August at HALF ENGLISH COST PRICE, in order to make the necessary room, Delay, therefore, purchasing your Drapery and Clothing till you come to CHURCH and inspect my Stook, when the literal troth of my assertions must force it;elf on your minds, and yon will not only purchase yourself, but Induce your friends also to do so. Yours faithfully, C. R. CHURCH, The Cash Draper, Kiver's Buildings, Cashel street. N.B.—A Present of a Lady's or Child's Black Straw Hat to every Customer. See Hand Bills for Prioes. alaa Wanted Known I In "Star." MB6
