WHO GETS YOUR MONEY.
YOU OR THE OTHER FELLOW? READ THIS: IT~WILL SAVE YOU £2. For a long time now the credit tailors have been charging the men of this town 5 and 6 guineas for their suits — ihey ve had to do it- -they really can't do it for lc&s. Thej Lave the writer's sympathy. But when it comes to a matter of business, sympathy isn't what's wanted -sympathy for wrong methods of conducting business—sympathy for antiquated systems of manufacturing, doesn't do anybody any good. The only way to help people to help the public —to help you in the matter, is to get in and make things different —to do things right, and that's just what I've done. I've made it possible for you to get a suit made to your measure for £2 10s, £2 15s, £3 3s, £3 os, £3 10s, or £3 15s, that is at least as good, and probably better, than the suits you've always had to pay the credit tailor 5 and 6 guineas for. It's simply by having my garments cut by the highest skilled cutters in the country, made by expert workers on modern lines, and the enormous quantity of suits made per week, that I can show you such a saving on such a high grade suit. Then, of course, I do not give credit, I make no bad debts. If I did, I'd have to charge you 5 and 6 guineas too. No, when you order your suit here, you pay for what you get, not for what the other fellow gets, and its because men are too level-headed to go on paying money for what they don't get, that this business is expanding so rapidly. It's saving money for men, and giving satisfaction to all everywhere. The fact is the fellows who don't pay for'their suits have been living on you in the past. You've had to pay for their suits as well as your own. Gut them in the future. Refuse to pay for what they get. Pay for what you get, nothing more—you'll do this when you place your order here. I have a splendid range of suitings (the newest and best) awaiting your inspection now'. • I want you to place your order for Easter this week, if yoi: can. It will be to our mutual advantage to have the order early—it will save the possibility of disappointment. My address is— GEORGE DAVIES, Corner of Arcade and Stafford Street, and at Christchurch, Wellington, Auckland, Dunedin, Invercargill, Palmerston North, and Wanganui.
