He arrived in London in 1838, with all , bis 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. .He saw, howaver, that more was wanted than men preach* it g, and with a sagacity deserving of 'recognition, he projected two strong counteractive forces to intemperance— wholesome beverages and'educational literature. He set up in Fenchurch street an establishment for the sale of tea and coffee. A long way after him McGowav follows ,witb his 8s tea. McGowa* 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 bios, after seeing the same* " . ness of the quality of tea. supplied on the Thames, that there wan room for a better article than that usually sold. At the same time he saw that it would be , suicidal to introduce a high price, so he determined to pnt 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 «aravan. Most people have a bobby,,and 3f TEA is McGowam's Hobby, get a pound and try it. McQowiH'a 3s Teais different and distinct from all other Teas. It is his intention, at some future date,' to publish, for the information- of the trade, full instructions as to the jation, &c. The public are requested to judge tor themtelvee, iv preference to listening to the disparaging remarks of interested and unprincipled tradesmen.; tsy • ,'. '■ ' ■ McGowans 3s Tea.
