"UM AR A ACADEMY; MISS HANNAN Begs to notify that she has opened a SCHOOL in that most desirable building for Educational purposes, next the Education Office, Main street; where she solicits a share of the patronage so liberally accorded her late Principals, Mrs Williams and Mr Stanton. The situation of the School is healthy, the Class-rooilis spacious, and Furniture and requisites ample. SOUND ENGLISH EDUCATION TAUGHT. Plain and Fancy Needlework. MUSIC AND DRAWING CLASSES. Charges moderate. A LADY, residing at Grey mouth, of many yearsj experience in the care and education of children, would receive one or two little GIRLS to BOARD and EDUCATE. First-class Testimonials and References. Terms moderate. Address—Miss Stoney, care of A. L. Bristow, Puketahi street, Grey mouth. COATS. To Mr C. F. HOLMES, Tent, Hose, and Oil-skin Maker, Kumara. Sir—You stated to me when you took my order for Oil-skin Coats for myself and Mr Gillbauks, that the articles would be much superior to anything of the kind I had ever seen before. I desire to inform you that I have used oil-skins for the last sixteen years, but I never found any to answer so well as yours. They are thoroughly waterproof, and are comfortable to walk in. It is a matter of surprise to me that you have not advertised such admirable articles, as I feel convinced that they need only to be known to be extensively worn. Reference to Mr Passmore, farmer, Teremakau, or to Mr Gillbank, will prove that I have not overstated the case.—l am, sir, yours truly, John Wills. OTICE TO GROUND SLUICERS \ In particular, And to the public at large. I should have advertised before, but the late fire disabled me from supplying any great demand at the time when I was made aware that my OILSKINS were in reality superior to any ever seen or known before. But lamiu a position to supply OIL-SKIN SUITS, HYDRAULIC HOSE, TENTS, MATTRASSES, AND SOU'-WESTERS, All of my own make. I shall be glad if my customers who feel satisfied will give me a written acknowledgment of their belief in the superiority of my improved article. TAR OIL, and SEWING MACHINES, Always on hand. C. F.
