business is to be conducted strictly on the cash principle, and all goods must be paid for on delivery, but any article not found suitable may be exchanged, or the money returned. As will be seen from the garments exhibited, the public will now be able to choose from the largest stock of men's, youths', and boys' clothing, superior in style and quality, and at a proportionately ljwer price to anything that can be imported. But, irrespective of all these advantages, it is to the interest of everyone to support an industry which employs New Zealand labor, and is a direct benefit to the butcher, baker, farmer, mechanic, shopkeeper, merchant, and to everyone in the community.—[Advt.] It says something for the Mosgiel Woollen Factory when a window in one of the leading warehouses in the chief city in New Zealand can be decked out complete Jy with its manu factures. That such can be done in a way that can challenge the attention and command the admiration "f customers has been demonstrated by Brown, Ewing, and Co., of Dunedin. They have decorated one of their fine plate-glass fronts in Princes-street, exclusively with Mosgiel fabrics in a way that demands something more than a passing notice. A more charming or inviting picture of all that can contribute to individual comfort during the winter season has rarely or never been presented to the public gaz \ The foreground is filled with tweeds suitable for male attire of the latest and most fashionable patterns, while rising immediately behind are pieces of elegant woollen tartans intended for female costume *, as free from loudness in color as they are chaste in design and comfortable in appearance. Above these again are tiers of blankets, white as driven snow, soft as swaudown, and lustrous as silk —blankets, in fact, that are not to be surpassed either in j>urity of color or quality by anything ever mported from the old-esta-blished manufactories of England. Over the blankets and ascending to the ceiling are a fine collection of white and colored worsteds. The sides of the window are draped with hosiery, Crimean shirts, and other articles made up on the premises from the products of the Factory. If we are not mistaken, this
is the first time in the Colony that the window of a leading retail warehouse has been decorated exclusively with an assortment of Colonial woollen manufactures, and the exhibition is certainly one that does infinite credit to the way in which this important branch of Colonial industry is being developed.—[Advt.l 22
