Merchandise. Laorknce D. Nathan. J.N. Alfred Nathan. To the Tea Consumers of Auckland and the Province. The distinguishing feature about Our TEAS Is that they are of consistent quality according to the special grades. The following description of respective numbers may afford a fair guide to buyers. STANDARD No. 1, PRICE Is lOcl, Will be found a sweet, clean, sound, and well-flavoured Tea. A combination of the mellowness of the hotter class of China growth, with the strength and briskness of the Teas from the Cacti,ir and Sylet districts of India. Absolute avoidance of .ill loaf that does not possess character, and that does not give a pleasant liquor, ensures for STANDARD No. 1 reliability for consistent and good quality. STANDARD No. 2, PRICE '2s. We confine ourselves to the packoling anil tinning of a good, sound, well-flavoured Household and Family Tea— good as can he put up for the money. We claim no suporexcelle ice for it, lint with a full knowledge of the qualities of Tea, have the utmost confidence in the verdict of consumers—That STANDARD No. 2 is all that is described, and a combination of good stiength and flavour. STANDARD No. 3, PRICE is id. The too Common Practice of Tea-Blenders is to Puff up their particular blends as the " Host in the World." Wo consider this ridiculous, as Teas have been sold in London is high as 80s per II) in this year (1801). To .it einpt to put up this class of to.i in New Zealand would lie to invi.e a failure from & a d consider ions. STANDARD No. 3 is composed of high-class Oeylon, pure Assam, and the Best Qualities of the celebrate i I'atiyon China Teas. It will be found of really excellent, ility, and rail be safely depended on aN of consistent regular strength ami flavour. Consumers will soon find its value, and the old Italian proverb that "Good wine needs no bush" will lie found justly applicable to STANDARD No 3. STANDARD No. 4, PRICE 2s fid. I,overs of a really CHOICE lIIUH-CLASS TEA will ho particularly delighted with the finality of the STANDARD No. 4 ; only the Best IN as imported to Now Zealand are used, and this blend is a happy mixture of China and Indian growths, eivins; the peculiar soft, ere iray, high-flavour d character of the Best (/utility of the former, and the rich fragrant tUvour <h the Darjeeling and other celebrated hillgrov.n Indian Teas. As palates vary it is impossible to please every taster of Tea by any particular blend, while it is quit, possible to hit the palate of a great many. The various blends put up are attempts to give a range of choice that will secure public confidence. ST ANDARD No. 5, PRICE 2s. This No. has become a universal favourite, having achieved a reputation for consistent quality that has secured a very wide sale. We are often told that it is the best value in New Zealand. To tho«e who prefer the strong, raspy, and magnificent flavour of the Indian Teas, as compared with the more delicate aroma of the China and Ceylon qualities, STANDARD No. 5 will bo an immense favourite. We put up a higher cost Tea in No fi and No. 7, but at the money, STANDARD 5 can scarccly bo beaten under the New Zealand Tariff of (id per lb. STANDARD No. 6, PRICE 2? fid. We have no hesitation in pronouncing it ONE OF Till l '. FINEST INDIAN BLENDS in New Zealand. We aim for it to command an extensive sale, and to deserve it for high quality and first-class value. It is All Indian, and is a blond of Teas from various districts celebrated for quality. It has been tested by experts side by side with the most advertised article, and is far and away tho SUPERIOR of most. Families are solicited to note the name and order from results of comparison with any in New Zealand market. STANDARD No. 7, PRICK .'is. STANDARD No. 7 is especially put up for the use of consumers who can afford to pay a full price for a really tlrst-class article. W.i make no attempt to popularise this Tea because its value is over the ordinary range of retail price, but there are many who do not care for an extri few pence per lb to obtain a luxury, and No. 7 is essentially a luxury. It is only necessary to use, say, two-thirds of the usual quantity to secure a better liquor than is to be obtained from the full quantity of lower-priced Tea. ONLY THE VERY FINEST SELECTED PEKOE TEAS FROM INDIA AND CEYLON ARE IN THIS BLEND. We Challenge Comparison. STANDARD No. 8, PRICE 2? Gel, IS A PURE CEYLON TEA. The character of Ceylon growth is a fine, golden-tipped l»af, the result of natural conditions of high altitudes in a tropical climate ; the gardens on the rich hills of Ceylon varying product with every 100 feet .if helcSit from the sea level. We receive Pens direct from choice gardens, and although pressed to jrive.a "cheaper" article, are determined to ke«p a reguiar standard brand that can bo relied upon by those who favour the Ceylon Teas 1 as of remark able quality in the cup. THE PUBLIC SHOULD TRY THESE TEAS IF THEY J!'A XT A REALLY , GOOD ARTICLE. L. I). NATHAN & CO. '
