To secure the Best 3s Tea in the province I have selected from samples submitted by Melbourne and Auckland Merchants—they, of course, seleoting each the belt for their trade. I have therefor* chosen from a number of samples that which I believe to be the BEST, and purchased the WHOLE of that Particular Line, so that it will be impossible to obtain a better article elsewhere. It being essential that a beverage ao universally used as Tea. should be supplied of excellent quality, I therefore solicit a trial, confident that no other conclusion < can be arrived at than McGOWAN'S for 3s TEA. Having a supply of Cheaper Teas, Stores, Hotels, and whole* sale buyers will be well treated. . .-.■*■ NORTH BRITISH AND MER. CANTILE INSURANCE COMTANY, London and Edinburgh. ESTABLISHED 1809.
