K RWH. P€tlM! § €§., 11l The Store ~ where Value Dwells. H H Goodwill and Confidence h T. E. TONEYCUFFE, MANAGING DIRECTOR. a n BS HI H H H H LJ On Wednesday we concluded one of the most succesessful and brilliant Bargain Sales ever held at PETTIE & CO’S. The reputation of this store rests on a solid foundation. We have the goodwill and confidence of our customers, which are ouf most valued assets. No matter what bargains others may offer, the people know that our bargains are better. We thank You To you residents of the town and country alike —to every one who has patronised us to the extent of even a shillingswvorth—to you who have tested our Values, and recommended them to others—to you who so graciously made your purchases amidst the noise and dust of alterations during the past month, we record our sincere thanks. . -A Store of Character The Store like the individual, earns a character which may be good or bad according to the methods employed in earning that reputation. In conducting our bnsiness we have fixed principals whereby every customer receives the same advantages. The people know that the values here .are always fair, that it is always possible to buy goods cheaper at PETTIE’S than to send away for them. Keen Prices No Abatement B B We sell our goods at keen prices. We don’t look for big profits. When we render an account we insist on receiving the full amount, which is the. only »* fair and honest way of doing business. We positively would not trade with a. Jj manufacturer who would do Iris business in any other way, and we want all our n customers to have the same confidence in us that we have in the merchants we do business with. Most people now realise that when they buy a pound’s worth of goods at PETTIE’S, that there is full twenty shillings worth of value and that no y abatement is made or expected. jjj \ Discounts u We allow 5 per cent discount on all goods paid for at time of purchase,-; y 31 per cent discount if paid by the 20th of the month following the first rendering JJ of the account, after which no discount is allowed. Errors Rectified jj “Whoever thinks a faultless piece to see, thinks what ne’er was, nor is, noJ* L ere shall be.” So wrote Pope and no one* will be disposed to question the truth of •Jj the sentiment. We do not pretend that PETTIE & CO. is without faults, or that rf we do not make mistakes. Put to quote Dry den, fC Errors like straws upon the saj surface flow, he who would seek for Pearls must dive below.” A surface view of our business may reveal faults, trifling, perhaps stiff faults; but ;those who understand PETTIE & CO., know full well that down below the surface lies our firm fixed and unalterable determination to deal with all patrons, fairly, courteously, aud without subjecting them to annoyance or inconvenience. We have just passed another milestone in our business journey, and we seize upon the occasion to say when a mistake or a misunderstanding occurs we are always eager to rectify tlie matter as soon as it is brought to our attention. We would far rather have a complaint made to us, than have a customer keep silent and feel that the Store has been unfair. . H Wa Pettlc & ©C> s? Limited, h

*s. The Facewithout Grease, Parisian Beauty Experts all condemn creams -> w - that leave a greasy mark on thin white paper. In aLI countries where greasy creams are much used sallow complexions are very plentiful. These facts explain why you should use only the famous “ face-cream without grease," Icilis&st This exquisite cream cannot grow hair •as greasy creams all do, needs no powder, and does not soil the clothing. It prevents stagnation and so clears the skin; it'protects from heat, cold, wind or age, and gives a cool, fresh, clean feeling that can be felt immediately. Nothing else in the world is at all like it—its virtues are dud entirely to the Icilma Natural Water it contains. [lcilma is pronounced— eye-silma.l Obtainable from T. H. GARRETT, CHEMIST, Gisborne.
