“Manners maketh man’’ is evidently an outworn adage, or at least will have to rank second to the dictum announced at a Christchurch sitting of the Conciliation Council to deal with the dispute in the bespoke tailoring trade by Mr F. R.

While some increases were granted as a result of much discussion, the rates ultimately decided upon were lower than those asked for by the union, so that, from the. union’s viewpoint, a proportion of the work being done by the tailors of Christchurch is, as far as remuneration is concerned, “art lor art’s sake.” Barraelough’s Magic Nervine cures toothache immediately: 1/6.—Advt.
