MOREY & SON'S WINTER SHOW

A WALK AROUXD. Why residents of New Plymouth will persist in sending out of their own town for their drapery wants, wo are at a loss to understand. More especially when at their very doors is a show of autumn and winter goods that would do credit to any of the four centres. A glance through Moray and Son's establishment in Devon street will convince the most sceptical that for variety, quality, and low pricing this 3tore is unequalled anywhere as a place to get their autumn goods. The big shipments which have arrived from England 'are now being shown to the best advantage. To quote a visitor's remark while purchasing one day last week: "Your store really suprises me. I had no idea that one could get such a splendid choice of up-to-date drapery in New Plymouth. It really does credit to the place, and your prices are more than reasonable." Messrs. Morey and Son naturally feel proud of the compliment paid to them on that occasion, and ask the local residents to enme and inspect the showing before placing their orders outside. First and foremost, is the lovely display of ladies' winter jackets. These are here in all makes and shapes, everyone being of the newest style and material. One line of beautiful faced cloths in all the leading shapes is alone worth a visa to the store. This line was bought in London by their buyers from one 01 the leading manufacturers at a very big discount, which enables the goods to be sold at London prices. Hence all aro really worth 50 per cent, more than marked price. The variety here is endless. The beautiful tweeds will find much favor when the cold weather arrives. Then again are the costumes. These are mostly the famous "Petone ,; makes. For style and quality they are unsurpassed probably in the world. The splendid "cut" of these garments enables almost any figure to be fitted without the slightest difficulty. The millinery department is again to the fore this season. The imported ■models are smarter than ever, and are here in greater variety, no two being alike. This department is now under the charge oi Miss Flavell, who is an experienced milliner and comes to the firm with very high credentials. The making up will be a feature of this season's business. Any model can be built to order, and personal satisfaction is guaranteed. Some extremely smart dressing gowns and jackets have been imported. These aie in a variety of colors and styles, from the ordinary cotton goods to the more elaborate quilted silk ones. The assistants will be glad to show the big range of these goods, which should command a ready sale. In moirette under-skirts, perhaps'we are not wrong in stating that not even in the bigger towns can one get such a splendid variety. The famous "Venissee" skirt is showing in different colors, many of the pale shades being particularly handsome. The prices will suit anv pocket.

We hardly know how to describe the blouses. There are really so many to choose from. Cottons, winceys, delaines, cashmeres, and silks arc all' here. The famous "Wolsey" shirt, which is all wool and unshrinkable, will be a great favorite for the cold weather, and will command a ready sale. While talking about "Wolsey,"' the woven under-, wear made by this firm is stocked in all qualities. The better qualities in combinations, etc., are verv choice. Besides! being unshrinkable, t'hev are perfect fitting. .

Belts, scarves, ties, handkerchiefs, gloves, and the many nick-nacks that help to make up a woman's wardrobe aie here in endless variety, and really want to be seen to be appreciated. Dress goods and trimmings, Mouse materials, blouse ends, furs, etc., are all to be seen in the main shop, and judging by the prices quoted, there should not be the slightest difficulty in disposing of the lot in a very short time. As we have not enumerated one quarter of the goods showing in the store, we would ask the public to spend a spaTe hour or so when thev have thp opportunity in looking round and judging for themselves of the values and styles, etc., that are now on view. The firm ask no one to b»y, hut wisli all to come and inspect and' enquire for goods that might miss their observation during their visit.
