A Fact Worth Knowing,-In these times of retrenchment and enforced economy, both public and privatn, it is consolatory to know that tho " wind is generally tempered to the shorn lamb," and that th-re are few misfortunes without compensating advantages. With money injless abundance its purchasing power is greater—a .pound .row will go as far as thirty shillings in the era of prosperity. As a proof of this, tie readers vt this paragraph need only pay a visit to the large salo of surplus stock at James Smith's, Te Aw Home, Wellington. A very full and elaborate catalogue of the many large reductions made in the prices of general drapery and clothing is enclosed with Satuday's (July 2nd) issue, and merits a' careful perusal on the part of all stationholders, hotelkeepers, heads of families, and country residents generally. Special opportunities, like the one at present under consideration; ocour but seldom; and it is therefore of importance that the fullest advantage should be takon of it at the earliest period. Te Aro House has always stood well with the public as to the undoubted veracity of its advertised prices, and on doubt many country residents have a lively recollection of the satisfactory bargains they secured in the past Equal, if not superior advantages are now being offered. Owing to the unprecedently low rates at which the goods aro marked n > discounts can be allowed during the sale. As an additional attraotion, the sale will include a speoial presentation to. each purchaser of £3 worth and upwards of a beautiful chromolithographic picture, mounted on tho best white cardboard, size 24 inches by 18 inches. No time should therefore be lost in paying a very early visit to the surplus stock sale at James Smith's Te Aro House, Wol-' ington.—fAnvr.l
