This ' 'is well illustrated by the mode in which tho Drapery and Clothing House of R. 11. jABBOTT*&" CO.',' Auckland,* is conducted. This firm buy "their goods direct from ■Biitu.li manufacturers and from local mills. Eveiy 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, theii*- goods are consequently priced at a. figure th.it no competition can cut under. That veiy in, irked success should attend such effoits is as natural as water finding its own level. These fact«, accompanied by price li.sts, were laid before the country public six months ago, accompanied by the intimation that oiders of over £1 in value would be sent carriage free 1 To meet their huge and rapidly-extending trade, R. 11.
