Members of the Equitable Building Society of New Plymouth (Second and Third Groups) are notified that subscriptiohs will be due and payable today (Monday.

Pure wool, pure dyes and low prices have been the outstanding features of Melbourne stockings for over twenty years, whilst qualities have been religiously maintained without the ■slightest variation even during the war period. Prices now quoted show a considerable drop, and comparative values will be found to be greater than ever. “Fairy Wonder.” Washing Powder sells better than any other washing compound in the proportion of at least five to one. There must be a good reason for this. Ask any unprejudiced housewife and she’ll tell you that “Fairy” is more economical, more efficient., is pleasanter to ufee and saves more fuel and labor than any other vyasliing compound on the market. Do you use “Fairy?” If not, why not?

Your soiled or faded suite, costumes, and dresses can be successfully drycleaned or dyed and made equal to new at the cost of a few shillings, by J. K. Hawkins and Co., dyers and dry cleaners, Dev- i Street, New Plymouth. We also renovate felt hate, Panama hats, furs, etc.. Now, it does not matter where you live; just post your goods to us, and they will be returned in a few days looking like new. Do it now. In these days of disease and epidemics, sanitary shaving is essential. Business and professional men require to be shaved daily or on alternate days.
