' ±— _ ■'■•■■'■■.■•■ -- : - f Extract from Melbourne Argus and New Zealand HerfddJ] 2he Mosgiel Woollens, we notice from the Melbourne Argus, have received unqualified prbise m the report on Australian woollens furnished to the Elboeuf Chamber of Commerce by M. Hetrt Courmeaux, who was specially sent to th« Melbourne Exhibition from the vooUm manufacturing district m France for the purpose. He declares that " every articU '.'■ manufactured by that company is superior to any other Australian woollen goods I m saw at {he Exhibition" and he thinks thmi * " the Mosgiel Factory will take first rank m the Australian markets over alt Euro- . pean importations." Testimony like this from a critic so competent and dism- * terested must be very gratifying to tU Company,. # The public are requested when purchasing to see that they get the genuine " MOSGIEL " article, which is guaranteed to give satis! action.
