THE DAVIES SUIT TO ORDER SPECIALLY TAILORED FROM 555. THE handsomest materials ever made lose their good effect if not properly tailored. I don’t claim to have the ONLY competent tailors in Now Zealand. But I do claim that, aided by my unique Cash System of Tailoring, the work of the George Davies team of smart up-to-date cutters and tailors will give you the best value you over had or heard of in suits to order. I stand ready to make to your order a Sac Suit full of good snappy 1910 stylo, well-tailored and finished equal to anything that'£4 15s over bought for you on credit terms for 55s cash, or to hand you back the whole of your money the moment the suit is returned. And remember that your Suit will be TAILOR made—not factory made. It will he handled by competent, brainy men from start to finish —cuttors and tailors who by the very fact that they arc at the head of their profession, are certain to give you hotter style and general good effect in your suit than the credit tailor “pottering along” in his own little way can possibly hope to. Ask me to scud you patterns of my 55s Suits to order—or call at my shop to see them in the roll. You’ll bo convinced quickly that the big value I promise yon is possible and certain. GEORGE DAVIES, Ihe Modern Tailor, Currie Street (Opp. Sargood’s), Now Plynieuth. A ’ WARNING. BREADWINNERS. WE HAVE PLEASURE in again assuring you that wo aro in no way connected with any MILLING TRUST, ASSOCIATION, or COMBINE —free in every respect. The Otago Times, May 31, in a leading article, speaks in most eulogistic terms of our independence, arid having so successfully kept the TRUST at bay in the NORTH ISLAND, but our local papers remain silent on our good points. Though wo have successfully combated the Trust, with your assistanoe v to have not yet been endowed with supernatural powers to control the elements to prevent drought and shortages throughout the world, and minus of these powers wo aro compelled to pay tho market rate for wheat, which has advanced, through tho results of a serious drought in tho South, augmented with something similar occurring in Europe. We all dike cheapness, but it ialiardly fMr, and not biblical, to expect that one section of tho community (i. 0., farmers, etc,), should shoulder the loss alone for the betterment of mankind, when no other trade or profession is asked to do so. Some platform orators for cheap notoriety say/ remove the duties, no matter how seriously, it interferes with their neigh.’riura, If this whs . given effect to.'iho sweated surplus of mysterious American (with its recent disclosures in adulteration), coloured India, where the weekly wage is about 2s, and greedy Australia, with its iccent reciprocity tariff, would bo dumped in Now Zealand, thereby ruining the farming and milling community, with their numerous dependencies. ■ kustralia had a serious drought in 1902 and its tariff was not altered for New Zealand’s benefit. Tho Government is now exhibiting tho horrors of sweating, so let us ho careful and reflect seriously before giving vent to idle and dreamy thoughts, otherwise God’s Own Country will no longer exist. , ,■ Thanking you for past favours, and soliciting a continuance,—Wo remain, always at your ymee,— I*. VIRTUE) Manager, Northern Roller Milling Co. “ CHAMPION ” BRAND. .Extravagance in Dress. TO SPEND MONEY on a highjjriced Parasol might bo considered extravagant in some oases, and rightly so, , but if you can buyone equally good in every respect at a considerably lower price—a pr::e that you can afford to pay—it if quite a different matter. On my parasols, made on the premises, there is no duty to pay and no middleman’s profits to allow- for. You savo money. Call and inspect. J. BESTFORD, DEVON STREET. TARANAKI LAND, BUILDING & INVEST.
