AS SUPPLIED TO THE ROYAL TABLE.
IAPTAIN PI DDING'S HOWQUA.'S MIXTURE
%,-) TEA is an admixture of 40 rare Black Teas, produced
on as many different plantations. each Tea differing from
the rest, and possessing a flavour, ft fragrance, or strength,
peculiar to itself. Blended together in the proper pro-
portions, they comprise all that is desirable in Tea. This
discovery was not the effect of chance, but of many great
advantages united in one individual, and the result of
numerous experiments and the most minute analysis.
For another to produce the same result, he must possess
equal skill, the same discriminating taste, equal power of
procuring the forty various Teas required, and know the
exact proportions of each kind used—and though he may
never once have visited China, he must have had equal
opportunities of securing to himself, its productions :
with one who, like Captain Pidding, has spent years there
in acquiring these advantages, and to whom alone How-
qua—years before his death—imparted at Canton, the
secret of compounding his Mixture.
Yet there are upwards of 500 retailers pretending to sell
tea, they call " Howqua's Mixture"—each mixture dif-
fering from all the others. Now as there can be but ONE
REAL " Howqua's Mixture," it follows that, as 500 dif-
ferent medleys are offered-499 must be spurious. The
499 counterfeits are so many evidences of the superiority
of the ONE GENUINE. And it would be absurd to suppose
that Captain Pidding, with advantages, the result of Eight
Voyages made to China, and five years spent in that
country, would be so silly—even were it possible—as to
yield them up to 500 others, or impart to them so valuable
a secret.
The very great celebrity this Tea has acquired, having
tempted many unprincipled persons to give similar, or
nearly similar titles to their own spurious mixtures, to
guard against such imposition, purchasers should observe
that "THE SIGNATURE THUS,"
Captain JOHN RHODES PIDDING,
Honourable Company's Service,
is on every genuine Package.
To those who drink Green Tea, " Captain Pidding's
Howqua's Small Leaf Gunpowder," grown only on one
estate, is recommended for it. strength and economy, and
as being the purest and most wholesome Green Tea im-
ported from China.

NO CHIROPODISTS ! !! NO CUTTING!! !
CORNS AND BUNIONS.

PAUL'S EVERY MAN'S FRIEND- is a sure and
speedy cure for those severe annoyances, without
causing the least pain or inconvenience. Unlike all other
remedies for Corns, its operation is such as to render the
cutting of Corns altogether unnecessary : indeed, we may
say, the practice of cutting corns is at all times highly
dangerous, and has been frequently attended with lamen-
table consequences, besides its liability to increase their
growth. It adheres with the most gentle pressure, pro-
ducing an instant and delightful relief from torture, and,
with perseverance in its application, entirely eradicates
the most inveterate Corns and Bunions.
EXTRAORDINARY TESTIMONIALS.
From Dr. Cummins, Lecturer on, Medical Jurisprudence
at the Aldersgate School of Medicine.
Dr. Cummins presents his compliments to Mr. Paul,
and begs to inform him that his Every Man's Friend has
entirely taken away his Corns, and he has recommended
it to several of his friends and patients, and in no one
instance has it failed in eradicating both Corns and
Bunions.
From Dr. Ley, Midwifery Lecturer at St. Bartholomew's
Hospital..
Dr. Ley presents his compliments to Mr. Paul, and,
begs to inform him that his Corn Plaster has taken away
his Corns.
Similar testimonials have been received from upwards
of one hundred Physicians and Surgeons of the greatest
eminence.
