A paper laid before Parliament this week furnishes a table of the consumption of articles in common use, which is startling until the surrounding circumstances are considered, and the reason only strikes one like the flash of an electric searchlight. The consumption of Sugar and Tea for the two pdst years, and the duty paid per head of population, is stated thus :—: — , Lbs Duty Total lbs used. per head, per bead Sugar, 1895 ... 65,568,960 88-5 Ss Bid Sugar, 1806 ... 67,395,840 89-4 3s B|d Increaso 1,826,880 -0 Old Tea, 1895 ... 4,472,528 60f 23 6|d Tea, 1896 ... 4,431,480 s'BB Is lUd Decrease 41,048 *16 7Jd It seems incredible that while the (people used more sugar they should consume less Tea. The explanation is that the China andIndian Teas are rapidly going^ut of consumption, and the British product, grown in Ceylon, is very properly taking their place. Foremost among Ceylon Teas stands the unrivalled SURATURA, and although there have been doubts cast upon the claims 4hat have been made for its strength and wonderful economy, the official testimony that $1,048 fewer pounds of Tea have proved sufficient for an increase of population of 13,317 in the 1896 period is too convincing to admit of further question. SURATURA TEA is not blended with Indian or. China teas, nor is it handled from the time- it leaves the stores in Ceylon until it reaches the consumer. Reflect and consider what you are losing annually by. using ordinary tea. Ask your grocer for, and insist upon havß ing, SURATUIU, and no other, &7
