THE Cheapness of an Article Depends upon the Quality. The reasons why the Now Zealand Tweed Company, Tailors, Short lanrl-street, has met with the amount of suocess that it has are: Firstly, the Tweeds are all of New Zealand manufacture, coming direct from the Mill so there is no Middleman's Profit: secondly, every Garment is Thoroughly Shrunk, and mad« in a First-class Style thirdly, there is No Oreiiit. so the Good Customer floes not pay for the Bad.—New Zealand Tweed Company Tailois, Bhortland-Btteet, opposite Bias Office
