WATCH THIS SPACE. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, — IT la a well known fact that in a large city like Christchurch many so-called 11 Selling Off Sales ” occur which are - “UTTER SHAMS,” simply got up for the purpose of getting rid of the accumulated OLD STOOK of YEARS, with the usual Stale Announcement of “ Compulsory Sale ” Effort,” “Stock Taking Clearances,” •'Arrival of New Goods ” Ac, Ac. A lew minutes’ calm reflection will be sure to convince you that these “ Selling Off Houses” have IMMENSE RENTS and EXPENSES to pay, which, mark you, must come direct from the POCKET qf the CUSTOMER. And last, but not least, remains the startling fact that LARGE SHOPS cannot be built out of LOSSES. 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 fact that 1 have NO OLD STOCK ; that my Expenses are ALMOST NOTHIN-*; that I have started in Kiver’a Buildings only four months ; that my Purchases have been FOR CASH ; that my Snop is Crammed with GOODS, bought at a great loss to the Importer,; while hundreds of my Customers every day exclaim : 11 What on earth do yon intend to do with all your Cheap Goods!” My answer is; “I Must Sell, for a Large Stock of Spring Stuff has been ordered, and Is now on the water.” Therefore every Article In my shop, from a Hairpin to a Bonnet, and from a Bonnet to a Blanket, I shall offer during July and Angust at HALF ENGLISH COST PRICE, in order to make the necessary room. Delay, therefore, pnrohaslng yonr Drapery and -Clothing till you come to CHURCH and inspect my Stock, when the literal troth of my assertions must force it* elf on your minds, and you will not only purchase yourself, but induce your friends also to do so. Yours faithfully, C. E. CHURCH, The Cash Draper, Kiver’a Buildings, Cashel ttreet. N.B.—A Present of a Lady’s or Child’s Black Straw Bat to every Customer.
