Another in Sydney „ Melbourne „ Brisbane „ Dunedin Supporting here and everywhere thousands oi families by the picking of the required Fruit and the preparing of this celebrated Jam. Being over so years before an Australian and New Zealand Public. Yon have a right to keep those facts before you, and remember that even if you should bo charged for ONE FULL-WEIGHT POUND of this superior and well-known Jam perhaps Id more than for A SECOND-CLASS ARTICLE, Do not grudge the trifle more, for Peacock's Jam is the cheapest for all that, on account o its homoeo pathic and superior quality ; in fact, YOU REQUIRE LESS.
