[by appointment to his excellency THE GOVERNOR.] NEW YEAR, 1908. MANY of Oil rnewest and boat things have been designed and made during oui Mr Littlejohn'k stay in London. We have illustrating blocks foo so few of these that we cannot issue a satisfactory catalogue this season. In addition to what we have already received new goods will be arriving during December and early.part of January. All Settings are 18-Ct Gold. Pearls are of fine quality, properly set in the gold, and do not fall out. All gems are also of excellent quality. Brushes and Mirrors are made with the metal stout enough to stand ordinary wear, and are not loaded with pitch, as is often done. The bristles and glass are of best quality. Wc have a large stock of Pearls, Diamonds, Rubies, Emeralds, Olivines, Sapphires, Opals and Turquoises unmounted. We would call attention to the quality and value of our goods. Country correspondents may have goods forwarded on approval. We should be instructed as particularly as possible about articles required and approximate prices. W.
