Hincaiil'M CS.I.C". KINCAID'S Q. 1.0., 161, COLOMBO STREET. TEAS. WE wish to draw special attention to our TEAS, which we import from the choicest districts of China, India and Ceylon. Our CEYLON TEAS are remarkable for their Fine Flavour, several of our chops biing yrown at an elevation of 4750 feet above tha sea. Although we have often been asked by canvassers and others to supply them with our Teas (less the usual profit allowed by those who pack tea for small retailers, &c ) we have distinctly refused, as we could not give the same value we are now giving, and which we propose giving in the future, if we consented to their request. We wish to impress strongly upon tea drit kers how desirable it is, if they want the CHOICEST TEAS at h reasonable price, not to purchase from those who pack them to carry so many profits, but to forward their orders direct to us, who only put ONE SMALL PROFIT on our TEAS. per lb.
