T h e r e importance of this cannot be overrated , andw e h a v egoodreason to believe that such a store- room and such manufacturing facilities as we n o wpossess are quite uniquein the trade. da dadi vive Our new " Special Driver " Bat (Frowd's Patent) has given results hitherto unattained by any other Bat, the driving power being greater , ✓and stinging or concussion to the hands is reduced practically to nil . A reduction in weight of from o oneto twoounces is also effected . Thesuccess of this Bat during 1881 , the first season's use , was altogether unprecedented in the annals of Cricket , and this has been fully con- firmed by the results of the subsequent seasons . Theopinions expressed as to its superiority to any other Bat are unanimous , and we are constantly.co receiving great numbers of perfectly spontane- ous testimonials concerning it, some of them being quite enthusiastic , from all parts ofothe country , and from the colonies . These testi- monials maybe seen at our warehouse .
