GOOD NEWS FOR MEN.
. (A CHRISTCHURCH BUSINESS TO BE 1 EXTENDED TO AUCKLAND.
Actixo on tho suggestion of many of his patrols- m Auckland, who have done very •• satisfactory business by mail with Mr. - OEOEGEi DAVIES, he has 'decided to OPEN,A. BRANCH IN AUCKLAND, at •6, Queen-streeC opposite Smeeton's. For tome time -past Mr. Davies' announcements ' have appeared in • this district, and our reader* are probably 'a waro that this firm has been saving gentlemen m Christchurch ■nd all over New Zealand, in fact£2 on the price of their MADE-TO-MEASURE SUITS. Mr. Davfes claims that four, five, *f sir. guineas is too ' much for a man to pay for a suit, and it is fairly safe to say that most men have felt that way for some time past, and will be only too ready -to avail themselves of the saving offered by Mr. Davies' moderate method of conducting business. Mr Davies undertakes to supply a Suit made to measure at £2 ss, £2 10s, ; *2 15s, or £3 3s, which ho claims will bo 1 the equal, if- not tha superior, in Fit, Style, ' and Finish, of any suit made in Auckland, ana stands prepared to back up his claim *.n tins connection by giving you a written guarantee that the "garments will fit you perfect y when completed. The guarantee binds him to refund your money in full unless the fit is perfect. It is a pretty »yund business proposition for every man 10 Auckland, and most men, we believe, Will be willing enough to place their orders »r made-to-measuro garments with this propssivo firm on these conditions. Mr. Navies states that the reason he can save *ou.£2 on tho price of a suit is that ho fells for cash, thus making no bad debts S?* added to the actual cost of production, ■ which is always necessary where credit is given. Then, of course, the modern Methods of manufacture adopted in the ' Making of these suits id a great factor for MOahty and economy m favour of the purchaser. The difference between this svs- ' !o? an , tno methods being adopted bv the SjW tailors is as different as the old"yl * method of harvesting wheat bv hand ««n the scythe is from the modern method -i using the reaper and hinder, which, , , everybody knows, does tho work both dieter and better. Mr. Davies' Suits are wnwant from all others m«de in New Zea- ' • V?jfcJ£ that he Possesses the EXCLUSIVE •TUrvvV llave the famous KEEP-SHAPE frn *iC "*d , in his coats - This is the , ♦root that simply can't turn back or go out - ttJi'V owin ? to the nature of its conSt ', II IS the latest idea from the ' 'iaW-v ndon and Nov/ York tailoring es*S?ri ment i S ' and means much to tho man ' »n?»v -f? bis-clothes to retain their shape - W the time- he wears them. On SATURVmm arch 13. Mr. Davies will have M.JP a l? selection of the NEWEST ->*fcu?? 1N AND WINTER SUITINGS, in™; s just arr 'vcd direct from the best manufacturers, and men will find it worth C * to , wait till that date and inspect E* goods b<?for * placing an order for their ,;;5 1U i 450 3 Garments. The prices of - ;?;^l splendid made-to-measure Suits will be - ** *» £2 10s, £2 15s, and £3 3s. Lt&iSlßabiPfA . ■ ■ .-...■:..-■
