I^EW new countiiea of the Rame siz» and population, enjoy the iimnen^fKl vantages J now accorded to the purchasing public in country putts of this Prnvinc*. H>H is well illustrated by the mode in which tho Drapery and Clothing House of R. 11. ABBOTT &• CO., Auckland, is conducted. This firm buy their goods direct from Britihh manufacturers and from local mills. Every half-year they publish their price list for the ensuing season, and abide by it. Their principle is to do an.immense turnover at a fractional profit, their goods are consequently priced at a figure that no competition can cut under. That very marked success should attend such effoits is as natural as water fii &ng its own level. These facts, accompanied by price lidts, were hud betore i the country public six months ago, accompanied by the intimation that orders of over £1 in value would be sent carriage free. . To meet their lurge and rapidly-extending trade, R. H. Abbott & Co. In ye imported for the ensuing Summer Season enormous shipments of goods, eclipsing both in variety and value anything yet attempted by them. Those country settlers who have not yet given R. H. Adbott's Special Parcel System a trial will, we make bold to say, cm opening the first Parcel, be agieeably surprised, and will regret having so long paid considerably higher prices for goods neither so good, reliable, or new.
