Outfitters, etc. D AyiD R. H BY SPECIAL APPOINTMENT A Y , V. R. tailor TO HIS EXCELLENCY SIR GEORGE FERGUSSON BOWEN, K.G.C.M.G., IT is quite amusing to read some of the advertisements now-a-days, as one would almost fancy from them that Goods pould always be bought a.t 50 per cpnl. under cost, especially as in fq make up for the transparent absurdity of the statement, they generally wind up with the assertion that su.-h is neither a PUFF NOR A SHaM. Those who moke such announcements by no means flat ter I heir readers, as no reasonable person would for a moment expect any man to keep his shop open for the mere pleasure of se'ling his Goods at 50 per cent, under cost price. I prefer appealing to the common sense of the peo : 1c and do so with every confidence when I state that my CELEBRATED £4 10s. T WEED SU[ris fixed at the lowest posa ble margin of profit, bat that I am happy in being able to say that the increased and ever-increa : siny demand for this 4STQ'ISHINGLY CHEAP SUIT, more than makes up for the smallness of profits, as 1 find that it pays me better than if I were to charge the exorbitant prices that some do. Just the other day a customer told me that it is L2 ss. less than he has been in the habit of paying for an exactly similar suit. Such a saving is rot to despised in these elrenehtnUfl ji/nra.
