Synopsis
Messrs Collinson and Ctmninghame of Palmerston, have a replace in reference to their winter sale of clothing and mercery. The attention of those suffering from rheumatism is drawn to St. Kew’s advertisement appearing elsewhere in this issue.
A writer in the Dunedin Star thinks there is no sadder sight in the Dominion than a decayed gold -field town. He makes a sketch of the life of the rough old mining days, and says of the miners:— Taking all round, they are chivalous, noble-hearted men, and a woman could walk at night alone through a camp of two thousand miners with a greater sense of security and safety than she could, through one of the larger towns of this Dominion to-day. There was a chivalry about those exiles from the land of their birth that is not commonly observed nowadays. Methinks that if some of them returned to earth and observed men seated in tramcars while women stood hanging on to straps their would be a riot. Mothers and Fathers ask at G. H. Stiles for their new line ot boys suits, which are the best in the market, and : marked at prices to suit.,the smallest purse.*
