"John Chinaman" still lives in the elevated, and forever descending streams from countless spouts. Few men bare left deeper marks on the interior of tea* pots than " John." He arrived in China about the third century after Noah with all bis belongings—except his familytied 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 tbe nourishing food called Bice. He set up an establishment in Cbing Chow Foo for the production and consumption of these articles. A long time after him follows J. E. Hansek with a large and varied slock of teas selected specially for his trade, and imported from the linea . descendants of the real original " John.' Prices range from Is 9d, 2s, 2s 6d, 3s, 3s 6d, according to quality. No "sanjenees," each Tea is distinct from the other, and worth its price leaving no room for improvement. Can anyone of age or understanding contemplate the above with* out buying their Tea at this establishment? .
