" John Cassbm still lives in the elevating stream of literature for crer flowing from the great publishing house he founded. Few men have left a deeper mark on their age than John Cas?ell. He arrived in London in 1838, with all bis belongings tied up in a coloured Lardkerchief. 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, howaver, that more was wanted than mere preachi< g, and with a sagacity deserving of recognition, he projected two strong counteractive forces to intemperancewholesome beverages and educational literature. He set up in Fenchurch street an establishment for the sale of tea ond coffee. A long way after him McGowah follows with hii 3s tea. I McG-OWAN has been ife the tea trade for many years, and has a Home and Colonial experience in selection that few can lay claim to. A few years ago it occurred to him, after seeing the sameness of the qualify 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, co 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 Russia, costing about 15s per lb there, being conveyed overland by caravan. Most people have a hobby, and 3s TEA is MqGowan's Hobby, get a pound and try it. McGowan's 3b Tea is different . and distinct from all other Teas. It is his intention, »t some future date, to publish, for the information of the trade, full instructions as to the plant, time of pujUing,'selection, manipulation, &c. The public arc requested to judge (or themselves, in preference to listening to the disparaging remarks of interested and unprincipled tradesmen. TRY McGowan's 3s Tea. BOOTS AND SHOES POB AM.
