"Johx Cassbli. still lives in the ele« . vating stream of literature for ewer flow* ing from the great publishing house he founded. Few men have left a deeper mark on their age than John Oasselt. He arrived in London in 1838, with all his belongings tied up in * 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, however, thak more was wanted than mere preach* ii-g, and with a sagacity deserving recognition, he projected two strong counteractive forces to intemperance— wholesome beverages and educational literature. He set up in Fenchuroh street an establishment for the sale of tea and coffee. A long way after him 1' , McGk)WAN follows with his 3s tea. McG-owav 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 yean ago it occurred to him, after seeing the sameness of the quality of tta supplied on the Thames, that there wan room for a better article than that usually sold. At the same time ha saw that it would be suicidal to introduce a high price, so he determined to put 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 Bussia, costing about 15s per lb there, being conveyed overland .he caravan. Most people Lave a hobby, rod 3< TEA is McGowan's Hobby, get a pound and try it. McGtoWAN's 3s Tea is different * and distinct from all-other Teas. It is' t>is intention, at some future date, to publish, for the information of the trade, full instructions as to the plant, time of pilling, seleotion, munipu* - lation, &o. The public are requested to judge tor themselves, in preference to listening to tha disparaging remuirks of interested and unprincipled tradesmen. TRY, McGowans 3s Tea. "
