A SMAHT SUMMER SU!T. £2 Ss, £2 10s, M 15s and £3 3s. MadO'io-jrteasure. ■ The suits now being 'made-to-measure by George Davies, Christchurch, at the above prices for gentlemen right here in your own town, are i-cally surperb in style, fit and finish. They equal in appearance suits you have been in the habit of paying your local tailors, who give credit, 4, 5, and 6 guineas for, and they possess one point which no other firm can supply — it is the famous "Keep-shape"- front. This front is a registered front -that ensures the coat from turning back and getting out of shape. It is the latest, idea from the best London and New York tailoring establishments, and Mr Davies is fortunate indeed in possessing the exclusive right to use this front in coats made in New Zealand. Those who have already sent for samples and the simple, self measurement form, and forwarded their order to Christchurch since the "keep shape" front was introduced, have been highlr pleased with the splendid coats made. Then special care is given to every detail in the making of every garment, and Mr Davies is so satisfied that your suit will give you complete satisfaction when you order it from him by post that' he has ; authorised us to state that he will . give you a written guarantee to refund your money in full should you not be entirely satisfied with the' garments when you receive them. We attribute the difference of £2 in the price of -Mr Davies suits largely .to the modern methods adopted in the making of the garments, and of course also to the fact that he sells entirely for cash, giving no credit whatever, .thus making no bad debts, and after all, it does seem absurd that one man should havn to pay a higher price for his suit just because some other fellow fails to >ay for his, but that is just what iappens, for somebody has to pay r or those who do not pay, and naturilly it is not the tailor who gives the iredit; it is the man who does pay '■ou. i . Mr Davies will esteem it a >rivilege to send samples to any of lis readers who will just jdrop him : line saying "kindly send me the amples, self measurement form etc." (A post card will do.) You nil receive by return mail a comileto range of the latest suitings to;ethor with Dlustrations of the newst styles now being worn in the ity, and when, after investigating he value for yourself you decide to lace your order by mail with this regressive firm, you will take no isk whatever in the matter, for as hove stated Mr Davies gives you a ■ritten guarantee which insures ompleto satisfaction for you— makes ; possible for you to secure the best uits made at any price at a saving f£2 to yourself. Our advice to 11 our gentlemen readers is to write D-day for samples, simple self measrement form and style book. They 'ill cost you nothing, commit you to othing, yet will save you £2 whenN ou decide to order after seeing the plendid samples. Your letter or ost card should be addressed to eorge Davies, 170 Colombo street, hristchurch. ■ :
