a v AILO&-T&AI>E SUITS, ,NOT FACTORY-MADE, ' raoM 55/HOW IT WORKS OUT. TO those who do not know the facts, and who have not thought the matter out, it may seem remarkable that one tailor should bo able to make genuine Tailorinadei Suite for from 55s while other tailors have to charge 4, 5, and 6 guineas for their suits. But whea we come to think it over — when we consider the big paving that George Davies, "The Modern Tailor," makes by trading on strictly cash principles — when we think of the tremendous suit business he doea in his forty branches right through New Zealand— when we remember that every new and better method, every scientific and up to date device has been eagerly seized and turned 'o good account in the building of this huge and 6ucceesful business^ — we begin to understand just how different this business is from every oth-er suit business ih the Dominion. Where other tailors make one suit, George iDavies makes twenty. It stands to reason he doesn't need to make quarter the profit they do. He has his numbers to make up for lack of big profit on the individual 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 accounts in bad debts, George Davies loses nothing. Every suit is paid for when received. That's the rule in George Davies's business, and it*& that fact which saves 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 tailors buy suit lengths Mr. Davies buys pieces; he buys direct from the 'manufacturers in, huge quantities, and of course he gets his tweeds and suitings much cheaper than the tailors in a small way could possibly do. So much for business methods, whioh explain the saving of £2 on the George Davies suits. Kow, 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- — so .you have the genuine tailor-made suit for 55s instead of 955, the three-guinea suit instead of the five-guinea, and the four-guinea suit instead of the six-guinea. These suits on which, you 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 — all the newest tailoring ideas — all the finest cutting art (the best English outters employed) — all the care and honest work which is necessary to make good suits goes into them, and so convinced is JVf r. , JLiavies that he can save you £2, and yet at the same time make you an absolutely satisfactory and distinctive suit, that he gives you a written guarantee to refund you your money in full if you're not satisfied. Could anything be fairer or mor'o completely to your advantage?
