He will mention five guineas for the ' same style—the same material—the same workmanship. That's what my cash system of tailoring means to my customers—a saving of £2. I never let a suit go out of-my workrooms without a careful inspection and unless I am personally satisfied that I would be pleased to wear the suit myself. That's why I KNOW that the value I give is far away beyond what the credittailor can possibly offer. Were I to use suitings of an uncertain character, my economical tailoring would lose half its power to attract thoughtful men and to retain them. ' Were Ito "slum" the work —to put in inferior linings and trimmings—to run i out the garments by factory labour and with slovenly finish, my business would go to pieces in no time. That is why I maintain a strict personal supervision of methods, staff, and warehouse. YOU CAN RELY ON ME TO GIVE YOU THE ACME OF PERFECTION IN SUITS TO ORDER AT MY FAMOUS REASONABLE PRICES OR —YOU DON'T NEED TO PAY ME. Call in to-day and see the suitings I offer at from 555, 635, 75s the Sac Suit to ordergenuinely tailor-made and tried on during process of making. GEORGE DAVIES (LTD.), "THE MODERN TAILOR," 46, QUEEN-STREET, AND 30 karangahape ROAD, AUCKLAND.
