— THECENTRE OF COMMEBCJBy rvUBING my vmitt Wellin-getfu U for the purpose of s6lec?ng Goods, and engaging a Firstclasfc Cutter and Tailor, I was fortunate in securing the latter in every sense of the word. He has held for years the highest position a«^ a Tailor and Cutter that any man in New Zealand can attain to, viz., the foreman in tie' leading Tailoring establishment in the colony (Messrs Bfowfl and Ewing, of Dunedin). I have offered sufficient inducement for him to come and manage my Tailoring Department. I trust that my endeavours to meet the better class of trade will be appreciated by those who are really desiring a first-class article. We would like a few good orders immediately, so that the style and workmanship may serve as an advertisement for our Christmas trade, which is very promising at present. If convenient kindly call during the day to select patterns as Inmp-light is deceiving. CUE Spring Goods HAVE ARRIVED AT THE CENTRE OF COMMERCE, EDMUND OSBORNE. FOXTON RACING CLUB. SUJVIMSm MEETING.
