Business Notices. THB SEVEN ■ AGES OF TEA DRINKING. All the world drinks Tea, And all the men and women dearly like it. They have their breakfasts and their “five ©'clocks/* And one man iuliis time drinks many kinds, His drinking having seven stages. At first he knows Hot rubbish from the perfect growths of Eastern climes ; And thou some wily shopman, with Vile packets of adulterated stuff, deception tries The ignorant to befool. And then tea-brewing, Stowing in teapots, making tea atrocious, Unfit for human drinking. .Then the buyer Maketh strange oaths, and tries another sort. Purity wanting-, no matter what the mixing, Seeking the blends of reputation, even Down in Wellington. And then the cheap stuff, In paper packages, not even lined. With tints unreal, and shreds of every cut, Full of wild straw and modern diriiness, Such cheapness very dear. The sixth stage shifts, And then we find a tea that is n boon. It conies to ns, well blessed, a real pure tea; From India’s shores and far Ceylon. And this right manly choice Turns tea-drinking to pleasure, fair and free The whole of the year round.
