Tailoring. DIFFERENCE IN ' ' SUITS. HOW MEN ARE MISLED, There are three kinds of suits made to measure. First, there's tho kind the " Credit .Tailor" charges lour. five, and six guineas lor. Then there's the kind which are sent to | wop lactones to be made, and on which * I big pront is made—they're sold mostly by •Urapers, Mercers, and Storekeepers and small I bun Shops. 'then, again, there's tho other kind of suit-the George Davies kind. They're I similar to the four, five, and six guinea lailcr's except in price—mine are about £2 less. Further ou I'll show you why 1 can. I save you the money. You will find it's not by taking it out of the suit—it's by saving money myself. Now, since I've brought the price of suits down throughout the Dominion a host of imitators have sprung up. They're the people who give credit—they profess to make suits at the same price as mine—and J so they do. but it's only the price that's similar. They can't save money on their production, so to do you a suit at the price they send it to a slop factory where shirts and dungarees and things are made. These kind of suits can neither keep their shape nor wear well, nor look well either. Now, my suits, although about the same price as those of my imitators, are as different to them as chalk and cheese— and there's a big difference between cheese and chalk. My suits are not sent to a slop factory. They're made in WORKROOMS ENTIRELY UNDER MY uWN OONTROL-made by experts, who specialise on the making of my suits; specialise in putting character, style, individuality, and comfort into every suit turned out. These suits are made from similar materials to what four, five, and six guineas are being charged for in Ibis town, but I don't charge you these prices. My prices start at 50s and leave off at 755. The reason I can save you the money is because I can save it myself. I've my own warehouse— buy direct from the Mills—l make a hundred suits where the ordinary tailor makes one. I sell for cash only, so you don't have to pay for the man who doesn't. The individual profit I make on a single suit wouldn't keep the ordinary tailor in shoe leather, but a small profit on a hundred suits means a pair profit for me and a big saving to you. There's only ibe best English and Colonial all-wool tweeds used in the making of my suits, and they're cut with individuality and style. I know so well that I can please you that I give a written- guarantee to give » you ever;/- satisfaction, or refund your money in full. Men in all positions of life—Lawyers, Medical men. Commercial Men, Clergymen, etc.—are wearing my suits to their entire satisfaction now. I've a stream of testimonials coming in by every mail. Some of these are put in a little booklet, entitled " What men say about my suits after they've worn them." I would like you to read it. A copy of it can be had at any of my Branches in the Dominion—and it doesn't cost anything. My business is made possible only by the application of scientific business principles. Just as the reaper and binder enable more corn to be cut, more bread to be made at a lees price than when they used to have to cut the corn with the scythe, so my modern methods enable you to secure a first-class suit at a big saving on the old clumsy method of manufacture. I am in business to give every man satisfaction and save you money. If I don't do what I say I do—well, you don't have to pay, that's all! It's a fair offer as man to man. Let me measure you for a suit and prove it yourself. You take no risk—l take it all. My Spring Suitings have just arrived. They're the best yet. Why not come in and see them? You can't place vour order at a better time than now, and don't forget the address. GEORGE DAVIES, At* AND ATT QUEEN-STBEBT. AUCKLAND. BRANCHES AT WAIHI. HAMILTON.
