men: Thlt Is Ganuin*. An English firm of textile manufac- [ turers, from whom we import our highest i quality suitings for our men's tailoring . department, made . a mistake. They , shipped us a few rolls of extra specially , fine all-wool jmre indigo navy serge in , error. , As we hadn't ordered this particular , serge we refused to take delivery except . at a big discount. The manufacturers , agreed to thus offer, so we landed the j serge at well below list price. • We now pass the benefit of this advan- , tageous purchase on to our customers. , We offer to make suits-to-measure in ! v this beautiful navy serge for £0 15/. [ Had we paid the full price for this , serge we could not have, possibly made \ it up under £8 8/ per suit. [ Made to your measure, mind you, no , ready-made touch about this offer. "We , will cut to your special wishes. Every suit will be skilfully hand-finished. The very ■ best of lining, padding, canvas, buttons and trimmings will be ueed. Every suit , will have "Hymo" fronts, and extra , well padded slioulders. Every suit will I be most carefully hand finished. •We will give you one or two fittings as necessary. , This is a genuine offer—a most [ unusual opportunity to get an 8 guinea , first-class perfect-fitting long-lasting pure indigo navy euit for £G 15/ —a straightout saving of £1 13/. You'll need a new navy euit for autumn and winter functions. Take , advantage of this offer. Come and see the serge, examine it closely, feel its beautiful texture. You'll agree itis about the finest you have ever seen. ... Out* men's tailoring* department is . quite eeVsluded, well away from the : ladies' showroom, and has ; its own : entrance. Order a suit now—straight away. To-morrow we are open till 9 p.m., so call in the evening if you cannot call I during the day.
