THINGS MEN SHOULD KNOW. INSIDE FACTS ABOUT THE MAKING OF SUITS TO MEASUPvE. HOW TO SAVE MONEY. BUT AVOID DECEPTION. SECURE TIIE KEST GARMENTS MADE. EVERY man who formerly had to pay fo\»r, five, or six guineas to havo a satisfactory suit made to his measure, anil who has sinco taken advantage of the modern methods adopted by a now wellknown, ftrm of suit specialists, knows that thoro is no longer any n?od to pay tho abovo exorbitant prices to secure complete satisfaction in every lespeet. The wonderful success and the rapid growth of tho business conducted by Mr. Georgo Davies in this and also at every other principal centre throughout New Zealand, is sufficient proof that men were tired cf paying the old-style credit tailors to cover their bad debts, and tho costly antiquated methods they adopt in manufacture. Just as is tho case, however, where any great success is achieved as the l'esult of an honest, intelligent effort to servo the public well, a host of would-bo imitators have put in an appearance attempting to deceive the public, and it is against these imitators wo would specially warn our readers. You will find this kind of thing mostly air.ong drapers and clothiers, who handle ready-made clothing, mercery, and sometimes almost every conceivable article worn by men, women, and, children. These firms advertise suit"? as lew in price as those produced by George Davies, in some cases lower, and when they have taken your measurements they send your suit out to some factory, where ready-made slop suits 'aro made, and all sorts of gprments of a cheaper kind. Tho rpsult is that you will certainly havo a suit made ( to your measure by these various firms, but what sort of a suit, is it? It is necessarily similar to the ready-made slops which arc made every day in these factories for customers who cannot afford to pay even moderate prices for their suits. How different, when you place your order with George Davies. Your suit is cut by an expert' cutter of the highest 'skill, made in Mr. Davies' own workroom under careful supervision, tho highest quality Italian cloth and haircloth is UPed in the making of. garments,, and every little point in the making receives special care in your interests. Yet although tho suits made by Mr. Davies are tho equal of any suits made in New Zealand, at any price, no matter row high, they cost you bul a trifle more than a suit which you can have clop-made to your measure at almost any drapery,- mercery, or ready-made clothing establishments in tho town Seine superb materials just landed dirocf from the" 'world's best manufacturers. a=< well as from tho colonial mills, are now «hown for the winter season.
