For several months they havo been collecting.all the evidence'obtainable,'with the end iii view how far it is practicable to. carry out a Cash Business on the most assured basis. It is, therefore, with extreme pleasure they announce that from statistics carefully compiled from England, Australia, and also from thii colony, tho most successful traders of the day are those who buy in the FIRST MARKET, sell'at'the LOWEST rate of profit for CASH, _ who do by far the largest amount of business, having the support, encouragement, aiid co-operation of an ever-watchful 'public. KIRKCALDIE & STAINS unconditionally assert that they are buyers in the FIRST MARKETS, and are.in the highly satisfactory position of having a Buyer admitted to be second.to noile in London, two indisputable essentials netsessary to make the impartant changes in their proposed new'system a success,'while in continuance of their determination to make it further attractive, the whole of their goods will be MARKUP' IN PLAIN FIGURES AT WHOLESALE PRICES, from which no-abatement'or discount can be allowed. • .. As the chango will -commence on MONDAY THE 2nd OF' MARCH, KIRKCALDIE & STAINS anticipate having large shipments by the s.s.
