A SMART SUMMER SUIT.

£2 ss, £2 10s, £2 15s and £3 3s,

MADE-TO-MEASURE

The suits now being made-to-Ej.easure by George Davies, Christchurch, at the above prices for gentlemen right here in your own town, are really superb in style, fit and finish. They equat in appearance suits you have been in the habit of paying your local tailors, who give credit, 4 and 5 guineas for, and they possess one point which no other firm can supply —it is the famous "KEEP-SHAPE" front. This front is a registered front that insures the coat from turning back and getting out of shape. It is the latest idea from the best London and New York tailoring establishments, and Mr Davies is fortunate indeed in possessing the exclusive right to use this front in coats made in. New Zealand. Those who have already sent for samples and the simple self-measurement form, and forwarded their order to Christchurch since the "KEEP-SHAPE" front was introduced, have been highly pleased witl^ the splendid coats made. Then special care is- given to every detail in the making of every garment, and Mr Davies is so satisfied that your suit will give you complete satisfaction when you order it from him by post, that he has authorised us to state that he will give you a written guarantee to refund your money in full should yon not be entirely satisfied with the garments when you receive them. We attribute the difference of £2 in the price to Mr Davies' suits largely to the modern methods adopted in the making of the garments, and, of course, also to the fact that he sells entirely for cash, giving no credit whatever, thus making no bad debts: and, after all, it does seem absurd that one man should have to pay a higher price for his suit, just because some other fellow fails to pay for his, and that is just what happens, for somebody has to pay for those who do not pay, and naturally it is Slot the tailor who gives the credit; it is the man who DOES pay—you. Mr Davies will esteem it a privilege to send samples to anjr of Ibis readers who will just drop him a line, saying "Kindly send me samples, simple self measurement forms, etc." (a postcard will do). You will receive by return mail a complete range of the latest suitings, together witn illustration of the newest styles now being worn in the city, and when after investi2ating the value for yourself you decide to place your order by mail with this > progressive firm, you will take no risk whatever in the matter foy, as above stated,' Mi- Davies gives you a written guarantee which insares complete satisfaction for you— makes it possible for you to secure the best suits made at any price at a saving of £2 to yourself. Our advice to all our gentlemen readers is to write to-<iay for samples, simple self-mea-surement form and style-book. They will cost you nothing, commit you to nothing, yet will save you £2 when you decide to order after seeing the splendid samples. Your letter or postcurd should be addressed George Davies, Colombo Street, Christcharcn.
