TAILOU-MADE SUITS, TsdT FACTORY-MADE, rROM SS/-' HOW IT WDEKS OUT. nnO those who do not know the facts, antl - 1 - who have not thought the matter out, / it , may seem remarkable that one tailor should be able to make genuine Tailormade Suits for from 55s while other tailors have to charge 4, 5, and 6 guineas for their suits. But when we come to think it over — when we consider the big caving that George Davies, "Tho Modern. Tailor, 1 * makes by trading on strictly cash principles — when we think of the tremendous suit business he does in his forty branches right through New Zealand— when we repnember that every new and better method^ every scientific and up to date device haa been eagerly seized and turned 1 fo good account in the building of this huge and successful business— we begin to understand juEt how different this business is from every other suit business in the Dominion. Where other tailors make one euit, Geovge Davies makes twenty." It stands to reason he doesn't need to make quarter the profit they do. He has hia numbers to make up for lack of big profit on the individu*! suit, and it pays him better to make twenty suits at a small profit than one at a big profit. Again, where the credit tailor loses a heavy percentage of his aocounts in bad debts, George Davies loses nothing. Every suit is paid for when received. That's tho rule in George DavieaVi business, and it's that fact whioh eaves you a good part of your £2 in your suit. The rest of it is saved by the small profit as mentioned above, and by the exceptional buying facilities which are possible only to a firm of such size. Where other Uilors buy suit lengths Mr. Davies buys pieces ; he buys direct from the manufacturers in huge quantities, and of course he prets his tweeds and suitings much cheaper than tha tailors in a small way could possibly do. So much for business* method?, whioh explain the saving of £2 on the George Davies suite. Now, about the suits themselves: Your £2 having already been saved through the advantages gained by the above-mentioned methods, it is altogether unnecessary for any saving to be taken out of the making — bo you have the genuine tailor-made suit for 55s instead of 9fas, the three-guinea suit- instead of the five-guinea, and the four-guinea suit insfcesul, of the six-guinea. These suits on which jou save £2 or more are not only genuine tailor-made suits made in Mr. Davies's own workrooms, but they represent the very highest perfection of modern- tailoring — »11 the newest tailoring ideas — all the finest cutting art (the best English cutters employed) — all the care and honest work which is necessary to make good suits goes into them, and so convinced is Mr. I'aviea that ho can save you £2, and yet at the same time make you an absolutely raiisfactory and distinctive suit, that he gives you a written guarantee to refund you your money in full if you're, not satisfied. Could anything bo fairer or more completely to your advantage?
