ELEGANCE AND ECONOMY COMBINED.
A SAVING OF THIRTY PER CENT. AT
72, LORD-STREET, LIVERPOOL.

DANIEL MYERS, TROWSERS MAKER TAILOR,
AND GENTLEMEN'S OUTFITTER, respectfully informs
his Friends and the Public that the Stock of his Establishment
is constantly supplied with first-rate Materials, and the newest
Designs. The system which has gained for D. MYERS so much
applause, viz., that of manufacturing the best Garments and
charging the very lowest prices possible, is still and will ever
be strictly adhered to by him. D. M. being determined that
the unfair principle of making those who pay their accounts,
do so for those who do not, has never and shall never be adopted
at his Establishment.
In submitting the following prices for Coats made from
superior West of England Cloths. it will readily be perceived
that the above great advantage and saving of 30 per cent. is a
fact acknowledged :
Super DRESS COATS, silk lined, stitched and
.e 3 0 0
wadded, (no extra charges)
Super FROCK COATS, lined through with silk, }
.€3 10 0
.
stitched. and wadded, (no extra charges)
DANIEL MYERS can confidently say that his Coats are equal
in Stvle, Fit, and Workmanship, to any that can be produced.
The Reports of Fashion are constantly being received, and his
Foremen are made acquainted with every Novelty and Im-
provement.
The fit of the Trowsers made at this Establishment is now
pretty generally known both in England and America ; to this
very essential part of Gentlemen's Dress, D. M. has ever given
his particular attention, and has now engaged an experienced
Foreman whose time is devoted wholly to this department, and
the Trowsers that are made at this Establishment cannot be
surpassed, if equalled, in Liverpool. The prices, as annexed,
are at least 30 per cent. less than any other respectable Esta-
blishment :
Gentlemen's Riding or Walking TROWSERS... 24s to 28s
Ditto Dress Black or Navy Blue DO. .. 26s —32 s
Ditto the newest Fancy Materials, DO. .. 24s 328
