" John Chinaman " still lives in the - elevated, and forever descending streams from countless spouts. Few men have left deeper marks on the interior of tea* pots than " John." He arrived in 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 superior 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. Hansest with a large and varied stock ef teas selected specially ior his trade, and imported from the linea descendants of the real original " John.' Prices range from Is 9d, 2s, 2s 6d, 3s, 3a 6d, according to quality. No "same" ness," each Tea is distinct from the other, and worth its price leaving no room for improvement.
