Hewitt's Pictures to-nighi The attention of our readers is drawn to the advertisement in this issue declaring a half-holiday on Tuesday, 22nd instant, on account of the AustraliaTaranaki cricket mateii on that date. The salvage auction sale that is being 1 held at Browne's Buildings, Devon-street, is proving most successful. The auction room has been crowded the last three days, and a large quantity of goods have changed hands', at what the auctioneer ' declares to be giving-away prices. The sale will be continued today at 11 o'clock, nine new cases having been opened up. Those intending to spend their E'asVer holidays on the Wanganui river are reminded, by the advertisement in our shipping columns, to book their passage and accommodation at New Piprriki House as' early as possible. To popu- j larise the fine new house which haß just: been erected at Pipiriki, the tariff for those staying one week or over has been fixed at 7s per day. The return passage, Wangamii to Pipiriki, has also been fixed at £1 return. No one should mis's seeing the fine new building which has beon erected, with its unique t«eiplnnted winter garden. The "Fosko" is the name given to a new Mousing this season made chiefly from wool. It is of an excellent texture, is guaranteed unshrinkable, and is obtainable in a Tory large variety of striped designs at White and Sons'. The wiTlth i>' about 30 inches, and the price is Is lid per yard. No more suitable material could be imagined for a utility blouse for winter wear.—Advt. I
