GOOD NEWS FOR MEN.

— • 1 . , » .11 ■. A-CHBISTCHHRCH BUSINESS' TO BE ...EXTENDED IQ.AtJCkLAND, . * Acting on the suggestion of niany of his patrons in Auckland, who have done very satisfactory business by mail with Mr. GEORGE DAVIES, ie has decided to OPEN A BRANCH IN AUCKLAND, at 46, QUEEN-S3EREEI , , i opposite Smeeton's. For-some time past -Mr. Davies'-announce-ments have appeared in this- district, and "our readers are'probably aware that this firm-has been saving gentlemen.in Christ-church-^ind : all- oyer New-- Zealand, in 7facl— ~£2 "on the. price Of their MADE -TO - MEASURE SUITS, . Mr. Davies claims that four, five, or six guineas is too much for a man to pay. for a suit, and it is fairly safe to say that most men have felt that way for some time past, and will be only too ready to avail.themselves of the saving - offered by Mr. Davies' moderate method of. conducting business. Mr. Davies undertakes to .supply ay suit-made to measure at £2 5/-,' £ sio/-, £2 15/-, or £ 3 3/-, which he claims will be the equal, if not the superior, in Fit, Style, and Finish of "any suit made in Auckland, and stands prepared to back up his ' claim in this connection by giving you a written guarantee''that the garments will fit you perfectly when completed. -The guarantee binHshim to refund your money in full unless the fit is perfect. It is a pretty sound business proposition for every man ia- Auckland, and most men, we -believe, will be willing enough to • place their orders for made-to-measure . garments-with this progressive- firni on these conditions. Mr.. Davies states/that "the reason he can save you "£2 oa the. price of a suit is that he sells for cash, ; "thus making no-bad., del>t.s to be added to the actual cost, of production, which is always necessary where.-credit is given. Then,'of course, the* modern methods of manufacture' -a.dbptfed- in theymaking of these suits i 3 a great- factor for iguality and economy in favour of. tbe purchaser. The difference -between this system and the methods being adopted by the oldstyle tailors' is as different as the old- . styie - method of harvesting, wheat by hand with the scythe J& from the modern method of using the reaper and binder,' which, everybody kuows, does the work hoth quicker" and betler. " Mr. Davies' suits are different "from all others made in New Zeala-nd, in that he possesses the EXCLUSIVE BIGHT to have the famous KEEP-SHAPE FRONT Used in his coats. This is the front'that simply, can't turn back.br go out of shape, owing to the nature of its construction: It is the latest idea from the best London and New York tailoring establishments, and means much .to the man who likes his clothes -to "retain their - shape.- all the* -time he-■-wears rthem. _--_. ©ii ;;SATCRJ>A'y-, -13th •ilarch,- Mr. Davies will "have opened' up" ■ •&- big' selectiou of the NEWEST AUTUMN.'
