THE GREATEST CLEARING SALE OF THE DAY. FLOOKTON'S FAR-FAMED VARIETY STORE TO BE CLEARED OUT-LOCK STOCK, AND BARREL. ALL THE IMMENSE STOCK OF MINI TURK, HOUSEHOLD REQUISITES AND GENERAL GOODS TO BE SOLI AT AMAZINGLY CHEAP PRICES. THE OLD PLACE TO BE PULLED DOW-N AND A SPLENDID NEW VARIETY STORE TO BE ERECTED ON ITS SITI BY FLOCKTON. BE IN TIME! BE IN TIME! BE IN TIME! And secure some of tlio CHEAPEST BARGAINS EVER OFFERED IN THE WORLD, T HENRY FLOCKTON, Proprietor L, of the VAIUETYSTOEES, respectfully tlesiro to intimate to my thousands of customers and patrons that the whole of the immense stock of Furniture, Ironmongery, China Crockery, Glassware, Briistoravej Spring Mattresses, Bedsteads, Blankets, Carpets, Hugs, Pictures, Ornaments, Cutlery, E.P. Ware, and General Household Requisites require to bo sold and cleared tiut.within the next fow weeks. 'he reason which makes this great Clearing Sale imperative is that the present buildings which form The Variety Store have become utterly inadequate in accommodation for the requirements of an immense and daily increasing business. laving therefore secured an extended lease of .the site of my present place in Manners-street, I intend at once to pull down the present building and erect a NE W VARIETY STOKE in their place, consisting of Spacious and Commodious Two-storey Promm, specially adapted for the requirements of my business. ) enable this to be done, the whole of tlio extensive stock must be at once . sold. I have, therefore, opened a GREAT CLEARING SALE, at which the goods are offered at prices so Marvellously and Unprccedently Cheap that they are certain to be eagerly and rapidly bought up by the public at large. Ny ofthf many thousands of people who have visited the Variety Stores during the last four years will remember what an immense and diversified stock it contains, and how amazingly cheap were the prices of the articles, The whole of that stock is now open for Unreserved Sale at such prices as will astound everybody by their unprecedented Cheapness. Four and a half years ago I commenced business on a plan of my own, which I may say was unique in its character, and never before attempted by any other man m tlio colony. My system was to buy and sell ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING OF GENERAL UoJii, riod to be "AN UNIVERSAL PROVIDER," and to offer to the public every description of articles which they might require at far cheaper prices than they could bo bought at any other store in Wellington, I kept, on sale an immense stock, comprising an enormous variety of goods, and thus enabled my customers and the public to procure in most cases from The Variety Store, all that they may require, in one call, instead of being obliged to visit nair-a-ciozen stores to complete their purchases. From the voiy first 1 found that this system of UNIVERSAL PROVIDING w.is appreciated and largely supported by the community at large, By carefully studying all the possible requirements of the public; by treating my customers and patrons with civility, courtesy, and attention; by purchasing cheaply, and selling cheaply for cash; and by giving good quality at the lowest possible prices, 1 found that my business rapidly extended, until at the present time it has attained such large uimensions tnat 1 am obliged to clear out all my present stock in One Immense Sale, .pull down the old place, and erect in its stead new and extensive premises, where I will be ■ able to carry on business on a more extensive scale than ever, and adequately meet the requirements, convenience, and comfort of my many thousands of customers. SALE IS AN HONEST AND .GENUINE ONE. I must sell every article of my stock. Everything must be cleared out, and that without delay. The prices will therefore be fixed on such a scale of cheapness as to make a speedy sale an absolute certainty. leartily and sincerely thank my old customers for their support in the past, and urgently invite them to come to the present sale and secure the bene- , fit of the cheap bargains offered. I also appeal to the public generally to visit the VARIETY STORE, and share the advantage of the wonderfully low prices. lis is the GRANDEST CHANCE EVER PLACED BEFORE THE WELLINGTON PUBLIC. Everything required in a housohold will be offered at this Groat Clearing Sale. There is something for everybody in ■ the stock of the VARIETY STORE, and evoryono who makes a purchase will get far better value : for their money than they ever did before in ' their lives. < . I nally, and as a last word,'l call upon i each and all—upon city residents and country settlors—to come to, TtiE < GREAT CLEARING SALE and < secure some of the splendid Bargains offered by me. * i HENRY FLOCKTON, \ c At tub Variety Store, „ ANNERS-STREET, WELLINGTON,
