WHY DOES A WOMAN LOOK OLDER THAN A MAN? JL ised by the proprietors of a certain soap, who doubtless argue that hard work is the cause of the premature aged appearance of women. It is also proverbial, however, that "hard work never killed anyone," and most people are agreed that worry—financial worry —ia the real cause of the furrows on the foreheads of most mothers. With probably only one wage coming in the problem ot clothing all members of the family is ofttimes a difficult one. Those women whose husbands patronise the SARTORIAL SERVICE LTD., The Square, Palmerston North, know what it is to be relieved of a weight of worry, for this firm supply suits at from 50s upwards. The value of these suits, cut and built in the latest style and fitted on to each customer, is attested to by the fact that the firm guarantee to re- • S • » .1 1 money if a man should be in any way dissatisfied with his suit. This offer is made as an absolute warranty that not only will each customer be completely satisfied, but his wife also will be delighted with the suit and jubilant over the cash saving effected as compared with the prices charged by ordinary credit tailors. By dealing direct with and receiving delivery of materials straight from the weaving looms, this firm' are in a position to supply genuine suits, made to individual measure and taste, at a price (50s upwards) which means but a week's wage to most men. The guarantee of complete satisfaction or money returned places every man in deal to gain and positively nothing to lose by patronising the SARTORIAL SERtwth.
