The aim of this work is to describe in an inter esting manner the Vast Resources, the Climate, the Scenery of tho Auckland Provincial Dis, trict; its Mountains, Harbours, Rivers, anil Lakes; its Forests and its Plains; its Cul. tivated and Waste Lands, and to show Foreign Capitalist! that our Genial Clime, Rich Lands, and Mineral Products, and Intelligent, Go-a. head People ofl'er inducements to intending investors or settlers superior to those of any othor part of the world. Other colonial handbooks havo largely mis represented this naturally rich and beautiful province, while the pages of the above work are devoted entirely to setting forth Auckland's capabilities and its many superior advantages in addition to which the fullest information is afforded of all Political, Social, and Religious matters of Provincial cr Colonial importance. As each year the contents are re-wrilten, and the statistical information brought up to the latest date, the Annual Volume becomes a valu able Work of Reference worthy of a permanent place in every Colonist's library. This valuable publication being designed to urther the prosperity of Auckland, the price charged is merely nominal. As the Book has now become a work of daily reference in thchome of every settler throughout the province, and is in use in all public ofllces in the colony and in many leading places abroad, it may with confidence be described as the best permanent Medium of Advertising of fered to business men. The work will be issued at the old price— ONE SHILLING. SECRETARIES of MASONIC LODGES FRIENDLY SOCIETIES, TRADJC, M ERCAN TILE, SPORT, MUSICAL, and OTHER SOCIETIES are ropucstcd to forward to THIS OFFICE, addressed "EDITOR BRETT'S ALMANAC." the information necessary for the compilation of the Directory attached to tho Almanac.

John Lamb, Esq. Dear Hir,—lt has been on my mind for some lime now to drop you a line about your Patent Porridge Meal. Ibelieve you are aware I have suffered considerably from mi ury to the stomach from tea-tasting, and having consulted my medical adviser, he strongly recommended Porridge for breakfast, which I have taken until I heard of your Patent Porridge Meal. I may here say the Oatmeal soon caused unplea santness, sourness of the stomach, and pimples and spote, with irritation, on the surface of the body. From this I was glad to get away, and at once took to your Patent Porridge Meal. With it I find none of the irregularities com plained of above, but a most palatable Porridge, and the whole system free from unpleasantness or irritation. I can strongly recommend it, and certainly think you should do a large trade in such an excellent article.—Youra very truly, (Signed) FREDK. WHITEHEAD. Industrial School, Kohimarama, • Auckland, June 2,1887. Mr John Lamb. Sir,—We have now been using your Patent Porridge Meal at this school for two months, and I consider it but right to inform you that we all (staff as well as boys) like it so well that I would find it a difficult matter to get them to return to using oatmeal. It is without a doubt a splendid, article of diet. I may add on my representing to the Education Department in Wellington that I was using your Patent Por ridge Meal instead of Oatmeal, I received authority from Rev. Mr Habens, Secretary for Education, to continue its use in the school. —Yours faithfully, (Signed) GEORGE P. HOGAN, Manager. Ponson Auckland, Ma 30,188 V. Mr John Lamb Dear Sir,—l think it a duty to let you know results of your Patent Porridge Mai on our youngest boy. He was weakly, and refused every food preparation that couid be got, but upon getting some of yours he took to it at once, and afterwards nothing would satisfy nim but this porridge. Fiyo or six times a day is not too mucn for aim, and seeing it being prepared cried until he got it. He is now strong and healthy, and can eat anything. Wishing you success,—l remain, yours, &c, (Signed) • W. CARDER. Orphan Home, Parnell, May 25,1887. Mr John Lamb: Dear Sir,—We are greatly pleased with your Patent Porridge Meal, having used it for some time. The children all like the Patent Porridge Meal better than anything they have had before. We thank you for supplying a long-felt want—a pure Porridge Meal, prepared so as to keep all tho most valuable properties of the wheat.— am, sir, youra truly, (Signed) E. NEARY, Matron.
