THOMAS DOWNWARD,
TAILOR AND DRAPER,
20, TARLTON-STREET,
WISHES to impress upon the minds °fall p asers
that, if they study ECONOMY in DR
__ „he now

offers an advantage rarely to be met with"e has re-
solved, from conviction, to solicit the support of the Public ;
in doing which he begs to lay before diem a sketch of what
he believes to be the present position--of the Trade, in
which he has been for a number of years engaged, and the
absolute necessity of some change in the• system hitherto
pursued in this business : the opening of this Establish-
ment is the result. It must, thfirefore, be obvious to all,

that an Establishment which shall combine all the requi-
sites of Style, Quality, and Workmanship, of the first
houses, at moderate prices, would furnish a desideratum
in the trade. The advertizer feels assured that he can
offer to the public all these advantages, by the introduc-
. .

tion of the principle of Cash Payments for every article
which he makes. Every garment produced by him will
be made by first-class workmen only ; none others will be

employed

T. D. will be prepared to offer the best Black Dress
Coat, average size, for £3; made from a quality of cloth
of a fineness rarely used. He can offer a First-rate Coat
for £2 14s. These garments, in Cut, Style, and Work-
manship, shall be equal to those produced by the most
Fashionable [louses. If it should be asked how all the

requisites of Style, Quality, and Worktianship can be fur-
nished at such prices, so strikingly different from those
existing, the answer is simple. Let any gentleman select
from a respectable NN oollen Draper a coat length of the
best West of England Wool-dyed Black Cloth, say, for an
average size, one yard and three-quarters, at 235. per yard ;
then add the Makings, as below, and the question is
answered. In closing this brief sketch of the subject,
he begs to say he does no more, and professes to do
no more than any respectable house can do by adopt-
ing the same method of business; his object being
not to cover deception by flaming profession. but to
take unoccupied ground upon the true merits of the
question. The Advertiser would call particular atten-
tion to the Making-up Department, as bearing tes-
timony to the true character of this Establishment, which
is to offer advantages hitherto denied to the public by the
first-class traders. Where is the individual who has not
many times experienced the difficulty of having his own
materials made up with any approach to fit and style,
owing to the fact that fash.onable Tailors object to making
up any cloth but that furnished by themselves? True
they do occasionally make up a garment for a customer
as a favour, but do not generally cultivate this important
branch of the business. Many respectable Woollen Dra-
pers in town regularly keep stocks, which, for extent and
no Tailor would be justified in keeping, where
y select articles of novelty, and Quality

variety

of the first manufacture. These houses, buying at short
terms and selling principally for cash, can offer their goods
to the purci aser at very low prices.

That gentlemen who would rather select their Materials
for Dress where there is abundant choice and reasonable
prices, do not avail themselves of the advantage to a
greater extent, arises from the before-mentioned difficulty
of meeting with a Tailor to do justice to their garments;
many submitting to an overcharge rather than run the
probable risk of misfits. The advertiser feeling fully the
extent of the public wants in this respect, is resolved to
supply the deficiency in the trade which has so long ex-
isted ; he earnestly solicits the support of the Public in
carrying it into effect. He is determined that every gar-
ment brought to him to make shall receive the same at-
tention i❑ every particular as those where the material is
furnished by himself.

The Customer finding his own Cloth, may, therefore,
calculate as certainly upon the fit and style of his Garment
as though he ordered it entire from a first-rate House and
paid the highest price for it.
Gentlemen intending to furnish their own material may,
upon application, be informed what lengths they require
for each garment. The prices charged for making are as
below ; all quotations are for cash on delivery :
