A Statement that Every HouccivifeShould Read The war has faced every tea merchant with the problem of increasing prices or reducing his (.jnalitv. fie has to follow-■one' course or the other —there’s no escape—for the wholesale cost of line tea in Eastern maria; s has increase!.’ over 2kl. per i b. sinceAugust last. The main reason for tins rise has been the greatly increased demand —and “the faff,, that tea production cannot match- * ally increase for at least iiv|vjyears. Take for instance the eji-:Tmous 0 nan lily of tea required men in the trenches and service. It is readily seen why ti uhs been selected as‘die soldiers’!

With the except if i&dft 3 million Britishers, but few o»-f & 25 miliion men under arms 1 ‘Ta Europe to-day were previously’ a, drinkers—vet almost in a day * 1 1 ii_u» id i ~ i Do you wonder then, that E.had to be found for them. tea has gone up, up, up in price?
that to-day fine tea costs the pack£-y, in New Zealand 'on the average* 2l>d. to 3d. per lb. more than iltd August last. v % ti-.-idd to this Russia’s 160 millions, who, with a stroke of the pen, havcVy been, turned into lea drinkers by || the Vodka prohibition—add a score of minor causes and you will see why the increase had to come. Therefore, too, you will see that any lea giving value for the money cannot be sold at the same price as in August last. ■ It simply can’t be done—unless, of course, the p r :.ce originally charged was abso!. V excessive. If a fair price and good -value was formerly jtiven, tl e packer is now fac’d with a loss or every packet. '['here’s no escape from the facts—either prices have to l»e increased—or, as an alternative, quality ami value mu-t he redutyd by i tic admixture of chcupei", inferior, less hcauhfu! teas. The “Amber Tips’’ kTopridors are determined di;d, in tin ir case, this altevnativc will never he taken. “A mher Tips”renau Table rise in a few years from an unknown brand to by far the largest. setting tea in New Zealand—the largest selling tea in die world in proportion to population—is due to its •quality and remarkable value.

We arc convinced that most homes in New Zealand would rather ray 2d. per lh. more and get die finest tea that can be produced rather than pay die old price and get an inferior article —widi an admixture of poorer tea? less healthful alike to nerves and digestion. forget quality and health fulness - -consider the question purely from die inacdpoint of economy;—l here too ‘‘Amber Tips” leads, for every pound will give more cups—and at a less ju ice per cup. - dip for cnj», there's no cheaper tiJwL 'I here fore even at the new AihSiit Tijis is still the cheapest—you get bet ter tea —more delicious flavour—finer fragrance- vdiiie. as the.

Surely because of a penny extra, per half lh. jiackel you will not deprive yourself, of a tea which for quality, flavour, fragrance, and economy is unique and unsurpassable. The housewives of New Zealand want a good article and good value, and or.o trial convinced them that Amber Tips is a tea that nothing else could equal. Do they still want value and quality? We believe they do—we know it. 93
