" John Chinaman " still lives in the elevated, and' forever descending streams from countless spouts. Few men have lpft deeper marks on the interior of teapots than " John." Ho arrived iv China about the third century after Noah" with all his belongings—except his family— tied to a yellow bamboo. He felt immediately that more was wanted, and with a sagacity deserving remembrance he projected two strong counteracting forces to the destruction of vitality —a wholesome beverage in the " cup that cheers! " —a very superioi Tea, and „ the nourishing food called Rice. He set up an establishment in Ching Chow Foo for the production and consumption of these articles. A long time after him follows J. E. Hansejt with a large and' Taried stock ef teas selected specially tor his trade, and imported from the linea descendants of the real original " John.'
