A Si^ART SUMMER SUIT. £2. 55,"£X"103, '£2 153 and. £3 35. " Made-to-measure. The suit 3 now ' being made-to-measure by ■ George Davies, Christchurch, at the cibore prices for gentlemen right here in your owix town, nro really 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 i they possess one point which iio other firm . can supply — it is the famous "Keep-shape fcont. 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 fo'rtunato' indeed in possessing thp exclusive right to. \isq .this. front in coats made in New Zealand. Those who have, already, sent for 'samples and the simple self measurement - form , and"f or warded their order to Christclmrch since tho "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, arid Mr Davies is so satisfied that-, your suit will give you coir.plote .satisfaction when you order •it from him by post that he lias authorised us.. to; state -that hewill give -you-" a written guarantee" to refund, your, jnohey" 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 tEe : modern methods adopted in tlie making of tbe jrarments, and of 'Cbursq, also to the fact that ho sells entirely for cash, giving no credit whatever,, lthus making no bad debts,-' and after all, it does seem absurd that one man .should have to pay a higher -price for" his stu't just because, some other fellow fails to pay for his, but that is just what happens, for somebody has ~to pay for those who do not pay", and naturally it is not the tailor who gives the credit ;. it is the man who does pay • you. Mr Davies ; will esteem it a privilege to send samples to. any of his read&rs who ' will just jdrop him a line saying "kindly send me the j samples, self .measurement^ form. I ,etc." (A post card will do.)
