Beg to inform the public that from this date to the I 17th of January every article in their Warehouse will BE SOLD AT COST PRICE. It will be, perhaps, surprising to many that we should adopt the present course of giving Goods at Cost Price, but we do so on principle alone. First —To counteract the influences brought to bear on the public in these extraordinary times ; second—To give the inhabitants the benefit of some very large and advantageous pur chases made a few days ago, and also at auction ; and Third —To lot the people of Auckland see where they can get best value for their money. It may be necessary, in the present crisis of Trade to remind the Public that we are not offering an old and moulded worn-out stock", that has been lying in the fixtures for years ; but we are giving them FIRST- CLASS GOODS, purchased under unprecedented circumstances, and al perfectly new. Inspection Invited ! Comparison Challenged !
