F.C. Dbak. Hon. Secretary. Thames, April 3rd, 1880. 437 ''jJobx Oabsbll still lives,in the elevating stream of literature for ever flow- ■ ing from the great publishing,bouse he founded. Few men hare left a deeper mark on their age than John Gassell. i He arrived in-London, in 1838, with all his belongings tied up in « ooloured handkerchief. At the various temperance meetings which he addressed, in a rough . and uncultured manner, but with an earnestness that proved his attachment to temperance views. He saw, however, that more was wanted than mere preaching, and with a sagacity deserving of recognition, he projected two strong counteractive forces to intemperance— wholesome beverages and . educational literature. He set up in Fenchurch street an establishment for the sale of tea and coffee. A long way after him McQowan follows with his 3s tea. McQowAir has been in the tea trade for many years, and has a Home .and Oolonial experience in selection that few oan lay claim to. A few years ago it occurred to him, after seeing the sameness of the quality ef tea supplied on the Thames, that there wan room for a better article than that usually sold. At the same time ho saw that it would be suicidal to introduce a high price, so he determined to put before the judges of good tea an article for 3s, that could not be excelled, unless there were, those wealthy enough to receive it from Bussia, costing about 15b per lb there, being conveyed overland by caravan. Most people have a hobby, and 3s TEA is Mo&owan'b Hobby, get a pound and try it. MoQowan'b 3s Tea is different and distinct from all other Teas. It is bis intention, Bt some future date, to publish, for the information of the trade, full instructions as to the plant, time of pulling, selection, manipulation, &o. The public are requested to judge for themselves, in preference to listening to the disparaging remarks of interested and unprincipled tradesmen. ■; \ , ■' TRY .:, •■■.■•■ "■ ■" McGowan's 3s Tea.
