About 150,000,000 pounds of tea are annually consumed
in this country; and forming as it does the priniipal
daily beverage of all classes, it behoves consumers to
select only that which can be relied on for sterling quality
and real cheapness. Florniman's Tea always reaches the
consumer in the same pure state as it leaves the grower,
and as it is securely sealed, with the price printed on
each packet, it cannot be changed or sold at an increased
rate. The great social importance of this mode of supply
is evident from the magnitude of Messrs. 11°min:tan's
connection being unparalleled in the annals of the trade.
