THE TRIUMPH OF THE PIANO.

Of all the instruments of music the world has ever known, none has Lad a triumph comparable to the triumph o f the piano. In millions of homes of al l degrees, in every civilised country in the ivorld, it sings its song of victory. . In every house of decent class it has come to. be regarded as necessary as a tea-table. And yet it is only a hundred and fifty years since the piano made its'first public appearance in England. The reference may ;be found in ail old playbill of Covent Garden, May 16, 1767— "End of Act I, Mis 3 Brickler will sing a favourite Song from Judith, accompanied by Mr. Dibdin, on a new instrument called PiaavForte " . But the tea-table is not ousted. In this modern life of ours, tea is the restorer of the equipoise, tho harmouiser of disturbances. The better the tea, the bettor the effect. Perfect flavour is the requisite; and with that, consistent quality and assured wholesomoness. .The conclusion is obvious. Tho tea to drink is. Suratura. It will soothe and stimulate you graciously, whether you are a musician or a misanthrope, a cynic or a sybarite, a beauty or a frump. There is no other tea like it. 8
