C4O rare Black Teas, and
- HO‘% QUA S SMALL LEAF
APTAIN PIDDING'S HOW:QUA:B 111,15CTuRf,
GUNPOWDER, in Chinese Catty Packages. The Sole
Proprietor of the above celebrated Teas is Captain JOHN
RHODES PIDDING. Every penuitte l'ackage bears his Sic, a-
ture. All others are spurious. The unwholesome rash
pirated under similar
PIR rende
rs this p
ON recaution n essary.
UTI ! !
Captain Pidding made eight voyages to Chiny, in securing
the exclusive importation of these Teas, aod if purchasers
will notice his signature, they will avoid cohnterfeits.
In an action brought by Captain Pi "g, against a person
who counterfeited his packages, it s proved, before the
Vice-Chancellor, on the affidavit of IN r. Styan, a broker of 27
yea" rTs'heaxtpcearipetain nce,peindipdilnorsd to test these Teas,
HOWQUA'S MIXTURE' is a Tea
of a peculiar flavour, and composed of many varieties of
black teas, all of the finest quality ; that it has a character
peculiar to itself—A FINE NATURAL AROMA. And
" That HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER' is Gun-
powder Tea of the very finest quality, and that such Tea
could not be bought in the market."
"W. Styan." { "Sworn at the Public Office, Chancery-lane,
this Bth day of May, 1837, before me,
" Filed Bth of May, 1837." N. W. SENIOR."
It was also proved on oath, that Captain Pidding's Teas
were supplied for the Royal use.
Dr. Johnson, late Physician to Geo. IV., considers the
the best of Teas, and uses no other. As Author of " The
Economy of Health," &c., his testimony is invaluable, his
writes thus :

" Suffolk-place, London, Nov. 22, 18.37.
" Six,-Ever since your Howqua's Mixture' Tea was
first introduced, myself and family have used it, indeed only
it, and we have no hesitation in giving it the preference to
all others. "-Yours, &c..
"To Capt. Piddini.'
JAIIES JOHNSON, M.D."Dr. Sigmond, NI. F.L.S., ins lecture on tea, lately
delivered before the Medico-Botanical Society, stated, " That
since the opening of the trade, new varieties of Tea had been
brought to England, anti, in particular, a Tea under the
name of the richest and the most esteemed of the Hong
Merchanei, which had been verry much and very deservedly
prized, and Captain Pidding's Howytta's Mixture' has now
become

" THE STANDARD TEA IN ruts COUNTRY.' "
The term " standard" comprehends every good quality.
These Teas consist of Captain Pidding's " How.aua's
MIXTURE" (Black Tea) at (is. per lb., is Bs. the Catty
Pack-
age. " HOWQIJA'S SMALL LEAF GCNPOWDER," at Bs. 7ld.
per lb., is Us. 6d. the Catty Package. Each Package con-
tains llb. and one-third nett of Tea.
