Few men have left a deeper mark on their age than John Oasiell. He arrived in London in 1838, with all his belongings tied up in * coloured handkerchief. At the various temperance meetings which be addressed, in » rongh and uncultured, manner, but with an earnestness that proved his attachment to temperance views. He saw, however, that more was wanted than mere preach* ing, and with a sagacity deserving recognition, he projected two strong counteractive forces to intemperance— wholesome beverages* and. educational literature. He set up in Fenchurcli street an establishment for the sale of tea and coffee. ° A long way after him McGowah follows with his 3a tea. McGrOWAH has been in tbe tea trade for many years, -and has a Home and Colonial' experience in selection that few can lay claim to. Jt'few yeara ago it occurred to him, after seeing the same* ness of the quality of tea supplied on tbe Thames, tbat there wan room for a - better article than that usually sold. At the same time h» 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 Biussia, costing übout 15s per lb there, being conveyed overland by caravan. Most, people have a hobby, and 3* TEA is McGowam's Hobby, get a pound and try it. MoGowAN'a 3a Tea is 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 ' plant, time of pulling, selection, manipulation; &o. .The public are requested to judge • for themselves, iv preference to listening to the disparaging remarks of interested and unprincipled tradesmen.
