Liquidation.— Being about to realise on my stock I have re-marked the whole at prices that ought to effect a speedy clearance. The stock is very large, which most of the Nelson people know, and one that the drawing room as well as the kitchen tiiay be furnished from. This is an absolute clearing sale, and no reasonable offer will be refused. John James, Liquidator. — Advt.
