Becaus ; "Shops may come and shops may go, but this goes on for ever.” Very good indeed; but still that’s not the answer. Here it is then—Because it has a bank on either side. I trust .he intell g.-nt end discern! g pul lie wib mark, learn, and inwardly digest the following part of thisadver tisement. The enquiry is still made—Where can we procure good tea ? I answer again—Use Nelson Moate and Co.’s pure blended teas, and you will derive much pleasure and satis faction, Why ? Because that firm thoroughly understands the tea trade. Mr Nelson is a tea. taster of life-long experience, and his blends of pure Indian and other teas give universal satisfaction.

I assure them and the general public that I shall strive to deserve the preference they may give me by studying their interests —as well as my own.—H. M. CARSON. ' N APOLOGY. \ve promised some time ago to supply the public with full particulars of our new stock of winter goods ; but since a closer examination has been made, we find the variety so much greater than we antici pated that with the limited space at our command such a course would be im practicable. We may, however, state that * * * ; Our SUPPLV OF ; : FANCY COATINGS ‘ • : and • j TWEEDS : • From tfb Home Markets j J SURPASSES ; • Anything We Have • : Hitherto Received. • • * To encourage Colonial Manufactures, and assist in keeping Colonial wealth within the.colony as far as that can be done by the efforts of a single firm, we have received a fine selection of TWEELS from Kaiapoi and Oamaru ; also a splen did assortment of MO-GIEL TWEEDS, manufactured only for the bespoke trade. As these goods have been awarded highest honors at the Sydney and Melbourne Ex hibitions, they require no farther recom mendation at our hands. The success which we have already achieved in Ashburton, and the reputation we now enjoy for accurately fitting the human figure, will be a sufficient guaran tee that erYLE, fit, and other essentials can always be relied on.

Matson, Cox & Co. DIPPING SEASON, 1884 The Special Improved Glycerine Dip, Soluble in cold water rnHIS NON-POISONOUS DIP is a J certain preventative and cure of scab, and is unrivalled for the complete destruction of Ticks, Lice, and Parasites of every description infesting the akin of sheep, cattle, and other animals. It has gained the highest reputation, for itpos_ sesses the double advantage of simultane, ously repelling contagion and leansing the skin from filth. IT DOES NOT DISCOLOR THE WOOL Or act injuriously upon the natural yolk of same, but feeds the fleece, maintains the natural lustre, and wonderfully pro motes its growth. The great risk in curred by introducing newly purchased stock amongst healthy animals already on the runs may be entirely avoided by using this Dip. The Dip is not a cheap chemi cal fluid, but a blend of ingredients (glycerine being one) which all tend to benefit the animal and the wool; and these ingredients are mixed by new power, ful steam machinery, so that a thorough consistency is always obtained. One dip ping with this Dip (in mid-fleece) will sav the great inconvenience of dipping twice as is the case with other dips. Sold in drums of 201 b (2 gallons) 501 b (5 gallons), 1001 b (10 gallons) ; 5s per gallon in single drums. A considerable reduction made in large quantities, for large flocks. Among the numerous testimonials we have received last season for this Glycer ine Dip, we select the following : From Reginald Foster, Esq., Sheep In spector North Canterbury— “ Amberley, North Canterbury, “ 17th April 1883, Wm. Buss, Esq., (Messrs Matson, Bubs and Co.), Raugiora. “Dear Sir,—l have to-day made a care ful examination of Mr T. Croft’s sheep, which were dipped in my presence at Ashley, by Mr Hayward, on the 26th March, in Messrs Tomlinson and Hayward’s Glycer ine Dip. The result of my inspection to day is, I am pleased to be able to state, in every respect highly satisfactory. The sheep were badly infected with lice and ticks, and in consequence, not thriving. After they were dipped they were, at my request put back in the same paddock from whence they came. To-day the sheep have the appearance of having thriven well since dipping. The Wool is SOFT AND SILKY TO THE TOUCH, AND IS unusually BRIGHT and qlossy , considering the short space of time since they were dipped. Although the sheep smell strongly of the dip, there is Very slight stain on the wool, as may be seen by the samples I enclose. I found no live lice or ticks, and what is, in my opinion, highly important, tub tick were all dead. As the lice ova are noi easily visible to the naked eye, I am not able to say what condition they are in, but as they are supposed to hatch within fourteen days, and as there are no young lice to be seen, it may, I think, be taken for granted that they are also dead. I attribute this killing of the eggs to the length of time the sheep were kept in the dip—nearly a minute— which, in my opinion, is not any too long, “lam, dear Sir, “ Yours faithfully, (Signed ‘ Reginald Foster.” Extracts from Letters from John Grigg, Esq., Longbeich, Canterbury. “ April 30, 1883—The general appear ance of the flock is all that could be wished for. ” “May 10, 1883—I am more and more pleased with the appearance of my sheep that were dipped in your Dip, and I shall certainly use it next season. I will care fully note the appearance of the wool as compared with that in which other dips were used.” John MoOaw, Esq., Three Springs Station. “ Timaru, March 19 - , 1883. “ I have been examining the effect of the Glycerine Dip on the sheep, and I find very sati factory results, the ticks as well as the eggs being destroyed. Whilst hand ling the sheep I find our dipping has been very effective. ” At the late exhaustive trial of sheep dips in Hawke’s Bay the judges reported as follows :—“ At the second examination on the 18th October, we found the sheep dipped with Tomlinson and Hay ward’s (Glycerine) free from parasites and wool in good order,” etc ', etc. Vide Hawlce’s Bay Herald, Jan. 5, 1884. Wool dipped with the Glycerine Dip last year at the N,Z. and A. Land Company’s Stud Flock Station realised the highest price in the London market. Vide Account Sales, 1883. The prize pen of Lincoln Sheep at the lata Lincoln April Fair and Newark Fair were dipped with the Glycerine Dip, viz., R, A. and J. A. Thorpe’s, Nocton. Wool dipped with the Glycerine Dip obtained the Silver Medal at the late Paris Exhibition.

TESTIMONIALS: From Rev. Cha.ei.es Penny — Reefton (Late of Christchurch), March 17, 1884. I am happy to say your Pulmonic Elixir afforded my wife and children almost im mediate relief in coughs and colds, and many to whom I have had the pleasure of recommending your specific have spoken of it as invaluable. In one case when every remedy tried was powerless to give relief (the cough was so distressing) the first dose of your Elixir proved most effective. In another case (sore throat) a cure was soon brought about that the patient resolved in the future to take no thing else. Other cases could be cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul- ] tnonic Elixir is a remedy of no mean order. From C , F. Salter, Esq. , Barrister and Solicitor— Inglia' Buildings, Christchurch. March 20,1884. I have used your Pulmonic Elixir in my family for some years past, and have found it very efficacious in chest and throat complaints. From William Reed, Esq., Shipping and Customs Agent- Lyttelton, Nov. 28. 1883. I have used your Lung Preserver in my family for the last fourteen years, there fore have the greatest pleasure in bearing testimony to its efficacy in the treatment of coughs, colds, bronchitis, croup whoop ing cough, etc. I have recommended it to my friends, who have also proved it a very palatable and speedy cure for chest and throat complaints, I have uniformly found a single dose of “ Lung Preserver,” check a severe paroxysm of coughing. I shall on all occasions have great pleasure in recommending it to sufferers, as I con sider it a boon to mankind. From Isaac Allen Esq., Commission Agent— Hereford street, Christchurch, December 5, 1883. After Be yen years’ experience I have great pleasure in testifying to the efficacy of your “ Lung Preserver,” having proved it in my family to be a specific for coughs, colds, etc., a few doses invariably subdu ing the nasty harassing cough, while re lieving the throat and chest, it does not, like other nostrums, disorder the digestive organs by inducing nausea, constipation, headaches, loss of appetite, etc. I can heartily recommend it as the best, cheapest and most palatable mixture known for coughs, colds, bronchitis, whooping cough, etc. So highly do we esteem it that we always keep a supply on hand. From W. B. Scott, Esq. , Builder, etc., Peterborough street, Christchurch, December 4, 1883. Some years ago I was recommended to try a bottle of your “ Pulmonic Elixir and Lung Preserver,” for tightness in the chest. I did so, and from that time I have never been without it in the house. 1 have found it to answer in every respect for coughs, colds, and sore throat, and -would strongly advise those that are suf fering from such complaints to try it.
