IRE AD an account in -the Times abont a j week: ago which reminded me of the' Tailoring trade. The watch took a longtime to make, and cost a' big sum, and was riot much when it was dona; that was because the maker had not learnt bis trade before he began. There are several people in Wellington calling - themselves tailors who have not' made their first suit yet, and it will be a long time before they do make it. It will cost them a lot. and would not be mocb wbeo it is done, because they have not learned the trade. These people will tell you that they can make a suit better and cheaper than a tailor who has spent SO years-of his life at The trade. Weil, gentlemen, if you believe them it will be at your own cost. Reason and common sense wilt tell yon that those persons must charge more, or give a suit 10s less in value than those made by JAMES HUXLEY; 1 who has been established 12 - years, and has never sold the goodwill of his business to anyone,
