REAT GENIUSKS HAVE BIG HEADS, so you needn't wonder that my Big Belltoppers are alt sold. I have, however, succeeded in finding a few more, from size 6& to 7, which will be large enough for very clever men, who do not profess to be great geniuses, at the same old price, Bs. Any man who can show me a Satin Scarf that he has paid 4s 6d for of superior quality to ray Satin Scarf at Is, Bhall have one of mine for nothing, until further notice. You see. Ladies, how 1 try to sharpen up some of the married men. It seems a pity to let them have such splendid wide and narrow brim Felt Hats for the low price of 2s 6d, but you know I must let them have a bargain when it ia thrown in my way. I don't see any chance in prospect of their ever getting such another bargain again in Waistcoats as I am now selling at ii each. Since writing the above, I have bought a lot of fashionable White Hard Felt Hats, the wholesale price of which was 6s Bd. I bought them for—well, never mind what I bought them for. The proper price of lem ia about 103. Well, I will sell them for the ridicu lous price of 4s each. I have also iuat bought 10 dozen Fashionable Hard Black Hats, and will sell them at the same price, namely 4s; also 5 dozen splendid Plaid Shirts, which I will sell at 3s 6d each; al a o a lot of White Ventilator Bell toppers at 7s.

First of all there is Ribbon Velvet over one inch wide at id a yard; another lot of lovely Feather Kdge Ribbon, beautiful colours, includ ing blue and pink, 5d a yard; also another lot of the lovely 4Jd Ribbon, and I must say it is going bo faat that I was thinking of raising the price. I wish my 6d Dress Improvers werj going half as well as my Is 6d Crinolines have been doing lately. Men's Leather Slippers (before I forget it); 2s 6d a pair. I have just bought over 18 doz. more Stays (white ones tnis time), and am selling them, well at 4a. They are the same kind as the last lot, only white, and not a spot on them; coloured Silk Fringe, 3d yd ; Black do., 4d to 6d. I am doubtful if there will be a pair of my S.W.

I have just bought over 3D dozen more Black Lace Falls, better than the last, but I will sell them at the same price, namely, Is each; Mantle Ornaments, 4d each; White Scarf Lace, 9d. a yard. Stout Ladies can now obtain superior largo sound Stays at 3s a pair, and I have also large old fashioned ones that lace behind, at the same price. I am going to let you have a nice bargan for a little while in Towels, at 6d each; a very few pairs of Men's and Children's damaged Boots left, at 2s and 2s 6d a pair; Sheath. Knives, id each ; superior do., 6d. I have Butchers' Knives, over 10 inches long in the blade. Is each; Shoemaker do., 3d each; White-handled Knives and Forks, 9da pair. Tell your friends, ladies, about my splendid Stays I mentioned in my lant advertise ment, many of which have scarcely a spot on them. I have sold as many as about 2J dozen pairs of Stays in one day since I bought them and I very much doubt if any other shop in Auckland ever sold as many in one day.

Extraordinary Cure of an Auckland Omnibus Driver, 21 years resident, ok . . Long-standing Rheumatism. Auckland, August 20,1878. Dear Sir,—l had .suffered severely and most acutely from Rheumatism for many years, brought on, I believe, from exposure to all weathers in the exercise o£ my calling. For years I could not sleep at night, and waa unable to lie except in one position. Day and night I was full of excruciating pains, scarcely able to move about at all, and as a natural sequence my general health was also materially iniured I believe I suffered the pangs of Rheumatism and its attendant evils, in every shape and form and my life was almost a burden to me. Itr ie every remedy I could hear of, but without ob taining any reliQf whatever. The sum I spent in medicine and medical advice was very cod siderable, but of no avail, until I invested in bottle of your Blood Restorer. I confess that I was not hopeful at all when I pur chased your medicine, I ha"d tried so many specifics without receiving the slighest benefit, but having determined to give it a fair trial, I carried out my intention. I adhered strictly to the directions, and the result is that I am changed from a mere wreck to my former self again—restored to health and vigour, and able to drive daily through all weathers, and at all hours, if occasion requires. I am sure you have never had a worse case to deal with than mine, aud although even now, in bad weather, I feel my limbs rather stiff, after sitting on the box for a leng time, I am a living example of the almost miraculous curative properties (under Providence) of your now celebrated Blood Restorer. My friends tell me it is a duty I owe to my fellow creatures to send you this acknowledgement, and if it is the means of persuading other Bufferers to go and do likewise, I shall feel that this letter Is not written in vain. I have the more pleasure in giving this testimonial as it is quite un solicited on your part. You are at liberty, of course, to make any use of this.—l am, sir, yours gratefully, _, -_l .
