Well-dressed Men.—Among tho-c habitual errors of conduct which are common in both careful and careless persons, not one is more often met with than disregard of the advantages derivable from being well dressed} yet whoever lives observantly in such a County as Patea. is soon convinced that this mistake is fruitful of mischievous results. All of us instinctively judge from first impressions; we proceed from the exterior to the interior; a well-dressed man gratifies our fondness for beauty and our appreciation of neatness; and there is no one, however cynical or unobservant, but is pleased when a well-dressed person, even if a stratiger. passes by, and disposed to think favorably of him. This universal dispo-ition cannot safely be offended; To be habitually a sloven is to constantly, though unconscious! v, offend numerous persons, among whom tfie favour of some may be valuable; arid therefore a shrewd man is not content to make himself heat now and then, but always will appear well dressed. He keeps his clothes in good order, and is careful in the selection of a tailor. In bringing this maxim before public notice, R, A. Adams. Cardigan House, is gratified by remembering that the disposition of a great many of his customers to appear in public well dressed has been met by the combination in his goods of selection, material, good fit, and low price. He obtains bis cloths in the most advantageous markets; he employs first-class cutters and workmen:''he avoids obsolete fashions; and he is content with moderate profits in the place of toe exorbitant percentage which only a few years ago was universal, and still is frequent in the taUo<Cng trade. His gloves, hats, shirts, hosiery, ties, and scarfs, are also such as will please the most fastidious. Whatever experience, capital, care, and good taste can effect on the tradesman’s side, is done by R. A. Adams, in order that all his customers may realise the substantial advantages of being well-dressed; and that his efforts give satisfaction, is shown by the rapid and steady increase in the number of those who deal with hint; Attentive to the changes of costume necessitated by varying seasons, and of style by the dictatee of fashion, R. A. Adams has now on hand a large and carefully selected stock of cloths suitable for all seasons.—R. A. ADAMS Cardigan House, Carlyle.— ADVT, Holloway's Pills. — Cure for Indigestion!. —-Indigestion, with torpidity of the liver, is the curse of thousands, who spend each day with accumulated sufferings, all of which may be avoided by taking Holloway’s Pills according to their accompanying directions. They strengthen and invigorate every organ subservient to digestion. Their action is purifying, healing, and strengthening. They may be safely taken without interfering with ordinary pursuits, or requiring much restriction in diet. They quickly remove noise in the ears and giddiness in the head, and dispel low spirits and nervous fears. These balsamic Pills effect a cure without debilitating or exhausting the system ; on the contrary they support and conserve the vital principle by substituting pure for impure blood.
