I can’t wait until all find out, but, taking for granted that all have got the correct answer, I proceed to state that I have just shifted into Orr and Co’s late grocery shop, where I first made the acquaintance of my friends of Ashburton and surrounnding districts. The “ whirligig of time ” has just put me into the old place, and I trust I shall have the pleasure of doing much business with all my old friends, and with many new ones as well. The enquiry is still made—Where can we procure good tea ? I answer again Use Nelson Moate and Co.’s pure blended teas, and you will derive much pleasure and satisfaction, Why ? Because that firm thoroughly understands the tea trade. Mr Nelson is a tea. taster of life-long experience, and his blends of pure Indian and other teas give universal satisfaction. Try them ! I am wholesale and retail agent for Ashburton, and these teas of the different kinds and prices, can, at all times, be procured at my shop in packages, boxes and half-chests. _My stock now embraces nearly every article in the grocery and Italian trades, and family orders I can now deliver anywhere in Ashburton and neighborhood. I shall be supplied with the various fruits in season, as usual, and while heartily thanking all my customers I respectfully solicit their continued patronage. I assure them and the general public that I shall strive to deserve the preference they may give me by studying their interests —as well as my own.—H. M. CARSON. O T I 0 E.
