DIFFERENCE IN SUITS. .«. ' . HOW MEN ARE MISLED. There are three kinds of suite made-to-measure. First, there's the kind the Tailor" charges four, five and six guineas for. Then there's the kind which 1 are sent to slop factories to be made, and on which a big profit is made —they're sold mostly by Drapers, Mercers, and Storekeepers and small Suit Shops. Then again there's the other kind of suity-the George Davies kind. They're similar to the four, five and six-guinea Tailor's, except in price—mine are about £2 less. Further on I'll show you why I can. save you the money. You will find it'e not by taking it out of the suit—it's by saving money myself. Now, since I've brought the prices of suits down throughout the Dominion, a host of imitators have sprung up. They're people who give credit—they profess to make suits at the same price as mine—and so they do, but it's only the price that's similar. They can't save money on their production, so to do you a suit at the price, they send it to a slop factory where shirts and dungarees and things are made. These kind of suits can neither keep their shape nor wear well, nor look well either.
