To secure the Best 3s Tea in the province I have selected from samples submitted by Melbourne and Auckland Merchants—they, of course, selecting each the best for their trade. I hare therefore choßen 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 bever* age so 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.
