"DON'T DO AS I SAY, DO AS I DO."

WHAT THE STOREKEEPER DOES 1 This is a message that came to us a fow days ago from a Storekeeper in a big town—"Send me a l'Olb box of your finest tea, regardless of price. I want it for our own use." Funny, wasn't it? His shelTes jroansd under ths weight «t" .teas in paokets of e/ery kind, from the brands that are muchly advertised to the brands that are packed by wholesale grocer* and not advortised at all, — friendly relations with the storekeeper are supposed to "move them off." Now, this man sold all these brands to the public—tho poor, long-suffering public, and very likely recommended them too! But when he wanted a tea for his offii private use, it was "HONDAI LANKA," and the best at that. He knew a thing or two in the Tea line, did the same grocer. Cheap tea and wholesale grocers' blends were good enough to SELL, but for his OWN use —"Thank you, I'm for HONDAI LANKA!" Of course, he was sensible. To buy cheap tea is just wasting money.. Nobody enjoys it. Flavorless tea spoils the meal, but a Tea like HONDAI LANKA, fresh from the mountain slopes of Ceylon, gives a eharm to any repast and makes one gratefully remark, "Isn't that splendid Tea!" Don't take your cue from what the Storekeeper sells, but buy what he uses himself, and insist oh the genuine HONDAI LANKA TEA.—(Advt.)
