¥©U All PAYING FAH T§® MUCH YOUR TEA. 1 SAVE YOU.6d. to 9d. ON EACH POUND, m & ess £'d m §(5& er^^> >%r:M fyttfigr <SOpJj gS*f' I don’t make that statement withonl knowing what I'm saying, for I haven’t been forty years in the grocery trade for nothing. You have only got to understand th* Tea Market to knew that I’m not exaggerating not even putting the caa» strongly enough. Let us trace for a moment the ueual method by which tea reaches you—the consumer. Tea is cold by weeklypublic auction* in the- large centres of the tea-growing districts, and buyers representing tho merchants of the world attend these sales, our buyers among the number. The Tea is then imported by all kinds of firms who style thumflolvcs . “ Tea Merchants,” etc. 'They pack the tea—sell te your groc-cr or tea - hawker at a good profit, and he again sells to you at a profit varying from 4d. to Gd. per lb.—sometimes more. By the time the Tea has reached you through these channels, you have paid ABOUT DOUBLE the price it was fT4i§f yiMioj bought for in tlic open markst in mdia / and Ceylon, and all that extra money has —A' J I Sone, FfCT IN SETTER TEA, but in big f PROFITS to the importer, packer, distributor, grocer and canvasser. Now, you see tlie waste and extravagance of the present systom—a system that is costing every tea-drinkcv from 6d. to Sd-. per pound TOO MUCH for every pound of tea consumed. This old method must give way to tho principle I. have adopted. I made up my mind that the consumer should have the f»U heiwflt of my long experience, so I set to work on x different plan. I buy BTRECT FROM THE GROWER and sell to you at THE SAME PRICE the average grocer pays the wholesale merchant. My agents attend the principal Tea-Markets every week. They buy FOlt ME, and ship DIRECT TO LYTTELTON, thus making my tea cost me the same as any wholesale firm in Australasia can bny at, and no IwpOPtffiS l In the world can possibly lsi;d tho Tea here on better time than I do., I pack my own tea, and thus having no intermediate profits to pay, my special Tea at 1/3 (without coupons) is better than is usually sold for 1/8 1/10 and 2/- lb.
