A SMART SUMMER SUIT. £2 ss, £2 10s, £2 15s and £3 3s. Made-to-measure. .The suits now' being, made-to-measure by George Davies, Christchurch, at thp above prices for gentlemen right here in your own town, are really surpefb ■ in style, fit and finish. They equal in appearance suits you have been in the habjt 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 1 front is a registered front, that en- ■.' sures 'the coat from turning back i ana ■ getting out of shape. It is ' the latest -idea from the Lest Xon- ; iea. and New York tailoring estab- [ lisnments, 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 highl^ 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 hoi has authorised us to state that he will give vyou a written guarantee to refund your money in full should you jiot " bY entirely satisfied with the garni hnts when you receive them. }Ye- 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 Jie sells entirely for cash, giving no credit whatever, thus making no bad debts, and" after all, it does seem absurd that one man should have to pay a higher price for his suit just because some other fellow fails to pay for, his, but that is just what ' lappens, 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 readers" who will just jdrop him a line saying "kindly send me the samples, -self, , .measurement form -etc." (A post card will do.)- You will- receive by. return mail a complete rango of: the latest suitings together with illustrations of the"new.ost s6y'."3 now being worn in -the city, pv.d when, after investigating tho valiiri- for yourself you decide to place yrmr. order by mail with this progre'--h-o ftrfci, you will take no risk v»-!i^i.Svor iri the matter, for as above staiocl Mr Davies gives you a written guarantee which insures complete satisfaction for you — makes it possible for you to secv^j the best suits made at any price ao a saving of £2 to yourself. Our advice to all our gentlemen readers is to write to-day for samples, simple Belf measurement form and style book. They will cost you nothing, commit you to nothing, yet will save you £2 when you decide to order after seeing the splendid samples. Your letter or post card should be addressed to George ' Davies, 170 Colombo street, Christchurch. " EOYAL MAIL COACH. N on— Richmond -^otnaka— NEWMAN BEOS., Proprietors.
