CHANGE and with them manners and M. tastes. The unimpeachable evidence ol Statistics of Trade tell us that the people readil; appreciate a good and pure article in preference to t dear and inferior one. This has never been so clearly demonstrated as ii tbe Records of the Custom House. In 1885 CEYLON TEA made its first appearance in New Zealand. That year the total quantity Imported from all sources was 4,442,8671b, of which CHINA supplied 2,487,66Ub, or 60i per cent INDIA supplied 150,6441b, or 34 per cent CEYLON supplied 4O3II) or QQ\ per cent THAT INSIGNIFICANT LITTLE SHIPMENT to , tbje colony was so appreciated that people asked loi more— and got it. - 5 YEARS LATER (1890) the imports rtood thus :— CHINA supplied 976,2401b, or 25* per cent INDIA supplied 657,9021b, or 17 per cent , CEYLON supplied ggg 1371b or 9^lP°" The total imports for that year from all «ourc« were 3,849,1051b. It was this year that SURATURA TEA wae introduced, and became a boon and a blessing to humanity. How it has established itself in the homes ' of the people may be seen by the manner in which i< haadbtanced all rivals, and materially assisted to drive China teas out ol consumption. In 1896— CHINA supplied 58 9411b, or H per cent. INDIA supplied £02,64611,, or 201 per cent, ckylon sup. 2,310,4151b or ssp- c - No other article of domestic consumption can enow anything approaching this. SURATURA TEA is picked and packed in Ceylon, thereby preserving its freshness and aroma until it reaches the consumer—which accounts for iU economy and purity. aVHATU&A TEA 1 In «ox tttnlid trUbladift or Wotlm.
