"John Cassell still lives in the elevating stream of literature f or ever flowing from the great publish ing house he founded. Few men hare left a deeper mark on their ago than John Cassell. He arrived in London in 1838, with all his belongings tied up in a coloured 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.

McG-owak has been in 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 quality of tea supplied on the Thames, that there was room for a better article than that usually sold. At the same time ho saw that it would be suicidal to iutroduce a high price, so he determined to put before tho judges of good tea an article for 3s, that could not be excelled, unless thcro 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 McGowan's Hobby, get a pound and try it. McQowak's 3s "Tea is different and distinct from all other Teas. It is ''is intention, at some future date, to publish, fur the information of the trade, full instructions aa to the plant, time of pulling, selection, manipulation, &c. The public are requested to judge tor themselves, in preference to listening to tha disparaging remarks of interested and unprincipled tradesmen. Mc(Sowan»s 3s Tea.
