TAH.OK-MADE SLUTS. NOT FACTORY MADE. / FROM 555. HOW IT WORKS OUT. To those who do not know tho fact* and who have not thought tho matter out it may cconi romnrkablo that olio tailor should be. able to malco genuine tailor-matte suits for from 55a, whilo other tailors liavo to charge 4, 5, and 6 guineas for their suits. But when wo eomo to think it over—when we consider tho big saving that George Davie.!, " Tho Modern Tailor," makes by trading on strictly "eas;i principles— when we think of tho tremendous suit business ho does in his 40 brnKchca right through Now Zealand—when wo remember that every new and better method, every scientific and up-to-date device, Jiaa been eagerly seized uml turned to good account, in the building of this huge and successful business, wo begin to understand just how different this business is from every other mit business in the Dominion. Where other tailors niako ono suit, George Davies makes 20. It stands to reason ho doesn't need to make quarter the profit they do. Ho has his numbers to make up for the lack of big profit on tho individual suit, awl it pays him better to make 20 suits at a small profit than ono ut a big profit. Again, where tho credit tailor loses a heavy perccntago of his aciomtts in bad debts, George Davies loses nothing. Kvcr,y suit is paid for when received—tiiafs tho rulo in the George Davie.? business, and it's that fact winch saves you a good part of your Si in your suit. The rest of it is saved by the small profits as mentioned above, anil by tho exceptional buying facilities which aro possiblo only to a firm of such siwi. Wiere other tailors buy suit lengths, Mr Davies buys pieces. He buys direct from tho manufacturers in huge quantities, and, of course, lie gets his tweeds and suitings much cheaper than tho tailors in a small way could possibly do. So much for business methods, which explain the saving of £2 on the George Davies suits. Now about the suits themselves; Your £2 having already been saved through tho advantages gained by tho above-mentioned methods, it is altogether unnecessary for uu,y aaving to bo taken out of tho making—so you have tho genuine tailor-made suit for 555, instead of 955, the three-guinea suit instead of tho live-guinea, and tho fourguinea suit instead o£ tho six-guinea. Theso suits on which you save ±12 or moro aro not only genuine tailor-mado suits mado in Mr Daviess own workrooms, but they represent tho very highest perfection of modern tailoring—all the newest tailoring ideas, all tho finest cutting art (the best English cutters employed), all tho caro and honest work which is neoKsary to make good suits goes into them, ami so convinced is Mr Davies that he can Eavo you £2, and yet at the same time make you an absolutely satisfactory and distinctive suit, that lio gives you a. written guarantee to refund you .your money in full if you'ro Jiot satisfied. Could anything bo fairer or- more i»jinpletely to your advantage? A magnificent range of best quality, newest stylo suitings await* your selection at George Davies's shop, 61 l'rincos 6troet (next Mutual Stores), Dunedin, Gentlemen aro now booking orders for the Christmas holidays, and oven though you may not require your suit for some weeks yet, you will bo wiso to book your order now.
