— THE — 1 CENTRE OF COMMERCE, FOXTON. DURING my visit to Wellington for the purpose of selecting Guods, and engaging a Firstclass Cutter and Tailor, I was fortunate in securing the lattec in every sense of the word. He has held for years the highest position as a Tailor and Cutter that auy man in New Zealand enn attain to. viz., the foreman in the leading Tailoring establishment iir the colony (Messrs Brown 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 lamp-light is deceiving. OUR Spring Goods HAVE ARRIVED AT THE CENTRE OF COMMERCE. EDMUND OSBORNE. ' FOXTON RACING CLUB.
