SUITS IN. COURT. EVIDENCE FROM THE MAGISTRATE’S COURT. WHAT IS A TAILOR-MADE SUIT? Albert Frank* Salter, tailor, of Lyttelton, said: I know the Scott-Service Tailoring Company, and have had dealings with them. I order ml a suit from them some time in Febwiarv last. I ordered it by post through posting patterns back to them. I filled in a chart and posted it to them with a deposit of £2. Later I went there and asked to have the suit ready to try on on Friday night. To Mr Alpers: Tf you tell me that the Seott-Serviee people have made 0321 suits for the year ending March 31st, and have only been called on under their guarantee on 10 occasions, T agree that that is a very good work. I agree that it is a good record for their trade. The following guarantee was produced: — THE SCOTT-SERVICE GUARANTEE. The most liberal and comprehensive guarantee in the world. In the event of this suit proving unsatisfactory in any respect, we undertake to: (1) Alter it free of charge; (2) make another free of charge; (3) or refund your money in full. This is an unqualified guarantee, covering fit, finish and quality. It means that vou must be SATISFIED, or the whole of your money will be refunded. We give this guarantee with confidence.
