STYLISH SPRING SUITS.
.» . — £2 ss, £2 10s, £2 15s, and £3, 3s.
MADE TO MEASURE. '
Tho suits now being made by George Davies at the above prices are really superb in stylo, fit, and finish. Tbey equal in appearance tho suits Christchurch men have been in tho habit of Eaying the tailors who give credit four, vo, and six guineas for, and they possess one point which no other firm can supply—the famous Keep-Shapo Front. The "Keep-Shapo" Front is a registered front that ensures tho coat front from turning dack and getting out of shape. It is tho latest idea from tho best London and New York tailoring establishments, and Mr Davies is very fortunato indeed in possessing tho exclusive right to uso this front in coats made in Christchurch. Gentlemen who have 'already had suits made at this establishment during the last two months, since the "Keep-Shapo" front was introduced, havo been highly pleased with tho splendid coats mado here. Then, special caro is given to every detail in tho making of every garment, and Mr Davies is so satisfied that your suit will givo complete satisfaction when you order it from him that he has authorised us to state that he will give a written* guarantee to refund your money should you not bo entirely satisfied with tho garments whon you receive them. We attribute tho difference of £2 in tho price of Mr Davies's suits as compared with the ; ordinary made-to-measure suit largely to the modern methods adopted in the making of tho garments and, of course, also to tho fact that ho sells entirely for cash, giving no credit whatever, thus making no bad debts; and after all, it does seem absurd that one man should have .to pay a higher price for his suit, just becauso some other fellow fails to pay for his, but that is just what happens, for somebody has to pay for those, who do not pay, and it is naturally not tho tailor who gives credit: it is the man who does pay— you. Mr Davies has just landed a very largo shipment of tho newest Spring and Summer. Suitings direct from the manufacturers. They include all the latest shades and colourings in the fashionable brown and green worsteds so much worn now, also many beautiful light materials and the standard qualities ' in blue 3 and blacks, which arc guaranteed to retain their colour, being of tho best possible dye. Your early inspection of theso splendid suitings is advised, as orders are coming in so quickly already that it will be wise to havo your measurement*) taken at once, even though you may not bo requiring a suit for a week or two. The address is: George D-tvies, ; j.82 and 184; Colombo streot, opposite ; Kmcaid's and near City Hotel. 139
