GROSVENOR HOTEL Cr. Moorhouse Avenue and Madias Street, CHRISTCHURCH. (Immediately opposite Railway Station). Electric cars passing frequently. Internal arrangements thoroughly renovated. Best brands of wines and spirits. Charges Moderate. J. JACKSON.. Proprietor. WHO GETS YOUR MONEY ? YOU OR THE OTHER FELLOW? READ THIS: IT WILL SAFE 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 — they've had to do it, they really can't do it for less. They have the writer's sympathy. But when it conies to a matter of business, sympatliy 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 JWp people — to help the public — to heip you in the matter, is to get m and make things different — to do things right, and that's just what I've done. I've made it posible for you to get a suit made to your measure for £2 10s, £2 15s, £3 3s, £3 ss, £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 charge you 5 and 6 guineas for -my suits, too. No, when you order your suit here, you pay for what you get, not for what the other fellow gets, and it's 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 facb 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. Cut 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 want you to place your order for Easter now, if you can ; it will save you the possibiliby of disappointment. Just send a postcard or wire, and it will secure you your suit before Easter. Do it now — it means money saved to you. I will forward you a fine range of samples (the newest and best) at once. My address is : GEORGE DAVIES, 196 Colombo street, Christchurch.
