Dress and Fashion-
1^ ,EW new countries of the same sizo and population, enjoy the imrnonaa advantages now accorded to the purchasing public in country parts, of thia Provinc 0 This is well illustrated by the mode in which the Drapery and Clothing House of R- H. ABB.OTT& CO., Auckland, is conducted. This? firm bijy their goods direct from British manufacturers and fiwn, lacaj mills. Every half-year they publish their price list for the ensuing season, an,d abide by it. Their principle is to do an.immense turnover at a fractional profit, the^r goods arc consequently priced a,t a figure that no, competition can cut under. That very mauked success shpuld, attend such effoi^s is a<3 natural as water finding its o\yn level. These facts, accom,pan.iet : l b.y price Usts, were la.id before the country public six months agq, accompanied by the intimation that orders of over iil in value woulc^ be sen.t carriage free. To meet their large and rapidly-extending trade, R. 11. Abbott & Co. ha.ye imported for the ensuing Summer Season enormous shipments of goods, eclipsing bo,th, in variety and value anything yet attempted by them. Those country settlers who, h,aye not yet given R. H. Abbott'r Special Parcel System a Uial \vtf\ x we make bold to say, on opening iho first Parcel, be agreeably surprised, and will' regret having so, long; paid epnsidera.bly higher prices for goods neithei so good, rel.iablo, or new.
