Ella- “There are some, men -who are always looking at their watches.” Stella: “ There are others who couldn't do it, unless f they spent their time hanging around a pawnbroker’s.” PUBLIC NOTICES. WHO GETS YOUR MONEY ? YOU OR THE OTHER FELLOW? READ THIS. IT WILL SAVE YOU £2, JPOR a long time now the credit tailors have been charging the men of this town 5 and 6 guineas for their suits. They’ve had to do it; they really can’t do it for less. They have the writer's sympathy. But when it comes to a matter of business, sympathy isn’t what’s wanted—sympathy for wrong methods of conducting business, sympathy for antiquated systems of manufacturing doesn t do anybody any good. The only way to help people—to help the public—to help you in the matter is to get in and make things different,' to do things right; and that’s just what .I’ve done. I’ve made it possible for you to get a suit made to your | measure for £2 10s, £2 15s, £3 3s, £3 ss. £3 10s, or £3 15s that is at least as good, and probably better, than the suits you’ve i always had to pay the credit tailor 5 and 6 guineas for. It’s simply by having my garments cut by the highest skilled cutters in the country, made by expert workers on modern lines, and the enormous quantity of ! suits made- per week that I can show you such a saving on such a high-grade suit. Then, of course, I do not give credit; I make no bad debts. If I did, I’d have to charge you 5 and 6 guineas for my suits, too. Nowhen you order your suit here, you pay for what you get, not for what the other fellow gets; . and it’s because men are too levelheaded to go on paying money for what they don’t get that this business is expanding so rapidly. It’s saving money for men, and giving satisfaction to all everywhere. The fact is the fellows who don’t pay for their suits have been living on you in the past You’ve had to pay for their suits as well as your own. Cut them in the future. Refuse to pay for what they get. Pay for what you I get, nothing more. You’ll do this when you | plr.-e-your order here. I have a splendid I range of suitings (the newest and best) await- 1 ing your inspection now. Better come in and look through them, .and let us give you quotations. You’ll find here just the fabric you want for your new Winter Suit, and our prices save you £2. My address is: GEORGE DAVIES, 22 Princes street; and at Christchurch, Wellington, Auckland, Palmerston North, Wanganui, Invercargill, and Timaru. ,
