FURNISHING IRONMONGERY.

THE MOST EXTENSIVE ASSORTMENT IN LIVERPOOL,
AT 46, LORD-STREET,
Next Door below the MERCURY OFFICE,
At Prices 25 PER CENT. under those usually charged.

BENJAMIN HIGGS takes the liberty respectfully
to invite attention to his STOCK of GENERAL FUR-
NISHING IRONMONGERY, which will be found the most
extensive in Liverpool, and in doing so begs to submit the fol-
lowing remarks as the basis upon which his business is con-
ducted. _ .

Within the last few years every trade, with scarcely an excep-
tion, has been making rapid advances, and the old policy of
SMALL RETURNS with LARGE PROFITS has been abandoned
for that of SMALL PROFITS upon LARGE RETURNS, and in con-
sequence have sprung up the many large Establishments in this
town, for the sale of Manufactures upon principles greatly to
the advantage of the pubic.
This Establishment is founded to meet the requirements of
the age in this most necessary department of House Furnish-
ing, and is conducted upon the following principles :

TO OFFER ONLY SUCH GOODS AS WILL GIVE
SATISFACTION.

TO SELL THOSE GOODS AT THE LOWEST POSSIBLE
REMUNERATING PROFIT.

TO MARK ALL GOODS AT ONE PRICE, FROM WHICI-
NO ABATEMENT CAN BE MADE.

From the long experience B. Hums has had in the General
Ironmongery Trade, and from his intimate connexion with the
manufacturing districts, together with the system of conduct-
ing his business, B. H. has no hesitation in saying that Families
Furnishing will obtain those advantages at his Establishment
which have never before been offered.
B. limos will ever aim at keeping the very highest class of
goods, scrupulously eschewing those that are mere empty pre-
tence to it.
The following Articles are recommended with confidence, the
quality of which may be relied upon :
IVORY HANDLE KNIVES and FORKS, to balance, full size,
475. 6d. per set of 50 pieces.

Strong BLOCK-TIN JACK SCREEN, with BOTTLE JACK,
the best quality made, 21s.

A Set of Six PATENT IMPERIAL DISH COVERS, the Tops
all in one piece, 21s.
BATH DEPARTMENT.

SHOWER BATH, with Brass Force Pump and Curtain
complete, £3 3s.

PORTABLE SHOWER BATH, with Curtain, 12s. 6d,

SPONGING BATH, Japanned Oak, 30-inch diameter, 13s.
Set of Japanned TOILET WARE, with Hoops, consisting of
Tub, Pail, and Can, 13s. 6d.

It is impossible, in the length of an advertisement, to give
more than an outline, but detailed Catalogues may be had on
application, or sent, post free, with Estimates for Furnishing
from a Cottage to a Mansion.
