WORKING MEN OF AUCKLAND : Will you calmly stand by and encourago tho Opposition in their determined attempts to injure the man who has been your friend for the last fourteen years. Yes, J. LEVx has proved himselt your friend in the truest sense of the word, for was he not solely the means by which you wero enabled to obtain Ready-made Clothing here in Auckland at prices but slightly in advance for what they were made in England for. His doing so did not please those who had been " fleecing " you, and many have been the efforts made to "shut" him up. But notwithstanding all, J. LEVY still knocks out, and has seen th? process of "whitewashing" ■ applied to many of those who styled thcmnelve your fbieijds, whilst ho feels that he himself 3 stunds out as a " brand plucked iron) the burning." And why is it thus? J. LEVY at onco openly confesses ho owes it aH to the strong support which he has received from the Working Classes, nnd would at this tima especially direct th™r attention to the fact that his WINTER STOCK for 1878 is now unpacked, and -will defy competition, whether p.s regard to style, durability, and the LOW FIGURES at which they are marked.

The following in striking evidence of tho won derful effects of tho Blood Restorer, after all other ineanH have failod to cure :— Rokeby-street, Auckland, Ist December, 1877. Mr. Hitchens,— Dear Sir, —I have to thank you very much for tbo benefit I have received through ÜBing your valuable Blood Restorer, and as a warning and guidance to others, would make known the particulars of my illness tuid cure. Some months ago 1! was taken ill with pains in the back, sup posed to be lumbago. So far from being bene litted by the attendanco of medical men, I grew rapidly worse, and the pain became agonising. One day my husband had in his hand a portion of an old Auckland Evening Stak. containing your professional announcement of the medicine and its cures. The paper was of a back date, and tho advertised agont'si address, a. Chemist in WelJesley-Btreet. My husband applied to him for Hitchens' Rlood Restorer, hut, the Chemist uped Btioh illnatured remarks to dissuade us from testing the virtue of the medicine, thnt. we felt there was some spite at work, and deter mined more than ever to give it a trial.
