MRS BROWN'S SALVATION! Mrs Brown Didn't know Suratu — , Ra Tea, an' so Mrs Green (Cousin Sue) Gave Meg Brown Tip or two. Meg sniffed some, Whimpered, said, "Nerves feel rum ! Better dead ! Can't drink tea, Makes me- ill. (Deary me ! ~*i Bitter pill!) Think of it! Nearly dead. Soon I'll flitJoin poor Ned. Fifty-three ! Everything's 'Wrong" with me. Soon have wings!" But she tried Suratu — • Ra Tea. (Sighed Awful blue.) Hasn't died. Looks like you, Nelly Bly, Twenty-two. Feeling spry. *v!~TI? ft VIIR A f f CREAM WHAT THE m USERS SAY Mr G. 0. Cooper, Waihou, writes, Juno 21st: —"It is now three years since I got the 150 gallon Baltic from you, and I am now putting through more milk than ever. I have had no breaks or renewals. It is a, clean skimmer, easy to work and easy to clean." IJ. B. MacEwan & Co., Ltd., AG S S T E S . I I WELLINGTON and 1 I PALMERSTON NORTH. | DIFFERENOEJN SUITS. HOW MEN ARE MISLED. The following information about the tailoring trade should prove interesting and profitable to readers. It appears that three kinds of suits are being made-to-measure to-day. First,, there's the kind the "Credit Tailor" charges five and six guineas for. Secondly there's the slop-tc-measure suit, which is made at a clothing factory where all kinds of things from dungarees to shirts are made. Thirdly there's the George Davies suit, which is made by George Davies, the Suit Specialist. This suit is made from the same material as the four to six guinea kind, but it costs from 30s. to £2 less. It costs less, because the firm know how to run their business on a scientific basis They can make enormous savings beyond , the highest dreams of their competitors and imitators. Every suit George Davies turns out is made in his own workrooms by experts. The saving is made possible by many different ways in the cost of production. Specialising, in the first place, saves money. Selling for cash only, makes a big saving too, for you don't have to pay for the man who doesn't. The small profit on a single suit is a fair profit on one hundred, and enables the buyer to purchase cheaper than the man who buys from the small shop. Again George Davies has 40 Branches and has to buy as much tweed as 40 shops put together. By this means he can buy direct from the mills, and save money again—no other tailor can. To save his customers warehousemen's charges, George Davies has his own warehouse, which again means money saved. Readers will readily see by the foregoing that George Davies' suits are as different as chalk and cheese to the slop-to-measure factory suits, which are being hoisted on the public. These kinds of suits are sold by drapers, mercers, storekeepers and small suit shops throughout the Dominion. These suits can neither wear well nor keep their shape. When being worn they look just what they are —slop-to-measure. The suits made by George Davies have style and individuality, because they're cut by men who know how—men who do nothing else but cut suits. The claim of the Firm that they can save you £2 w amply proved by the enormous number of testimonials which stream in by every mail. Testimonials from Doctors, Clergymen, business men and professional men, etc. George Davies has so much confidence in his garments and knows so well that he can give you the most critical satisfaction, that he gives you a written guarantee to please you in every way—or refund your money. It's a fair offer. If there's a fairer one George Davies would like to know what it is, and he'll make you that offer too, he kjnows so well that h* can pleaae you. The address is : G.
