Presumably you have some reasoning faculties. Why not apply them ? The rule of proportion holds good in the tailoring trade just as much as in everything else. It's an easy sum to work out. Take the oost of the raw material, the rate of wages, and the various other incidentals. A little thought will convince you that a so-called rt cheap " suit will ultimately prove extremely dear. Ido not claim to be able to make you a suit for £2 10s, or £3, or even £3 10s. I believe in good material, and good workmanship, and by my long experience I have proved that it can't be done at the price. The minimum price at which a good suit can be made is £4, and my suits are made to fit well, to look well, and to wear well. Are not these the chief disiderata ? Of course they are ; but you don't get them in the cheap factory-made article. You are cordially invited to come along and inspect my work. Even if you don't require a suit now, let me enter your measurement in my register for future requirements. Suite made to measure from £4 upwards, and satisfaction absolutely guaranteed Fred Weblev, the Quality Tailor, next Union Bank, and opposite, Part-ridge's^-Adyt, \
