tVhj Tofc. , Coats More The I hird Aracie of a Series dealing, toith a question rohsch vitally affects every housewfe. The increased demand foi lea to lav is due to lo the tact tha. huge quantities are wanted for the 25 million men under arms. The Reads of the Armies of the world know that there is no drink so Simulating and beneficial, and hence they must have tea for [ heir men no matter what it costs. Then, too, at the stroke of a pen, yhe great Russian Nation has joeen turned into a tea drinking people, and the money previously spent on Vodka is now available for the purchase of tea But there is only a limited Mipply of tea and that supply is not Sufficient to fill the present requirements. Hence at the tea auctions in Ceylon it has risen in price month by month, until tc-day it costs the packer to 3d per lb. more than in August last, i This, of course, affects New Zcalr fld very greatly, for the finest tea in "the world has been sold here at prices which cannot be equalled. Although this seems a bold statement, it is one that will bear the closest investigation. For instance, a great proportion of the tea imports to England consist of what is known as “red stalk’’ tea the lowest possible gradc~so low that it is prohibited throughout Australasia. Yet even this lowest grade is sold in England at 1/6 or 1 more per lb., while for fine teas of the quality of “ Amber Tips,” 2/8 to 3/4 per !b. is asked. Toa experts the -world o ver are astonished at the remarkable quality, flavour, fragrance and value given in “ Amber Tips” at bo low a mice, and it is because no better value can be obtained anjI where, that “Amber Tips" is lo day the most popular brand in New Zealand, [Millions of packets of “Ambers lips’ ! are sold per annum. It is stocked in every shop from the North Cape to the 1 Bluff. Only exceptional value could be responsible for so exceptional a sum. [ But fine tea is now costing the “Amber Tips’’ Proprietors, as well as other tea merchants, uh average of 2td. to 3d. per lb. more than in August, 1914. Therefore, if a fair price was charged before the war, the tea merchant is to-day faced with an enormous loss should he continue to pack the same quality at his old prices. Of coure there is the alternative of cheapening the quality by an admixture of inferior, leas healthful teas, . The “Amber Tips" Proprietors were advised by many to do this, but instead they decided to raise the price by ‘2d. per lb., and to continue to give the public that same splendid value which has always been associated with the name "Amber Tips." Now, Mrs. Housewife, what is your opinion of the whole matter ? Would vou rather have the same delightful flavour, quality, purity and value and pay a penny a 1-lb. packet more—or would you rather have an inferior and less healthful tea at the old price ? But you say "other teas have not been raised in prices.” If so you can readily see that either excessive prices were charged before the war—so excessive that even an extra 2id. or 3d. in cost per lb. still enables a profit to be made —or quality must be reduced, oiher- & heavy loss must bo faced. But even at increased figure# Amber Tips is otill the cheapest tea you can buy. Cup for cup, value for value, nothing else can equal it, while it is so pure and healthful that it can be taken by even those of the weakest digestion. Surely these facts should weigh with you. Consider them carefully- write and tell us your conclusions. We believe that yon want quality and that you want value. For that reason we have raised our prices because only by doing so can we continue to give you the same honest quality and the same honest vak's. ioi
