TOUCHING THE RAINBOW ! \ LORD BACON, that quaint discoverer, announced that ''where a rainbow seemeth to hang over, cr to touch, there breaketh I'orth swoet smell."- Pity 'tis that .bo tew of these grave philosophers of the old time can be taken quite seriously in this white light of the new. Theie was Augustine, the esteemed saint, who assured the faithful that he. had actually seysn in Ethiopia many men and women having no heads, but large eyes iixed in their breasts — in other respects like himself — and also men tiiat had a single eye, and that in the forehead. Augustine had an opulent imagination. But there is a soul of reality in these fictions. There are to this day many folk whose eyes arej to all intents and purposes, in their stom- - ' achs. And' if you are willing and •wise, you may still get into the path of the , rainbow. - „ You may warm your leisure with • delight, ;ind till your dullest hours with a rare redeeming sw/eetnessi. You may have your nerves as harmoniously responsive as the strings of a master's harp. All that you need to do is to eschew all inferior and noxious beverages, and to place your trust in the wonderful qualities of SURATURA TEA There is no other like it. No oth?r has quite the superb, inimitable flavour of SURATURA. If you are at all sceptical, get a pound of "D" quality for 2s, and be convinced.
