Cheat & Grow Rich.

THIS has been the secret principle Of toe
: many Of the wholesale dealers 10 Tea.
up TO this time. and they have prac,ised tht
most shameful imposition on the Country
Merchant without any fear of detection. =
But new era in the Tea Trade has come
and the PEKIN TEA COMPANY Claim.
the honor OF its introduction. They wer.
the first 10 raise the banner Of Reform, or
which it has inscribed the simple words
"Pure Teas at Honest Prices
A complete revolution has been the conse.
look at what we have done.
1st. We were the first 10 send them Teas
that used 10 be called loo good for them be
fore
End. We have driven out Of the market
a vast amount Of trash. and introduced bet.
Ter class OF Teas than has yet ever been
sold. Importers Of Tea often come to us to
get Tor their own use. and Tor their friends,
fine qualities they can find nowhere else.
3rd. We have reduced prices more Than
25 per cent, both in Black and Green Teas.
The wholesale grccers say we are running
the trade and calls US humhugs. This we
have done already, and now see wtd, we
are ready TO Go.
LIST. We will sell Teas by the single chest,
half chest. or Ia ID box, at the same prices
that wholesale srocers pay TO the importers
when they buy by the hundred packages.
2nd. The wholesale grocers allow only
Is or al most ID lbs ,are 10 the hall chest
This is a cheat We will allow, in most
instances, Is and Is lbs tale on the same.
Sd. We hereby undertake 10 sell every
kind Of Tea from sir TO t,celvs cents per ID.
cheaper than the wholesale grocers do.
How can we do this, asks the country
merchants?
This is our answer We are content with
seven per cent profit instead of Is s. SO per
cent. a la wholesale grocer.
We deserve the thanks oil the country
merchants for saving them hereafter from
being cheated. Let them come 10 the Ware
houses OF the PEKiN TEA COMPANY
and compare samples OF Tea they get else
where; and it they buy bad Teas then, al
high prices, II Is their own fault.
An English importer lately boas'ed to US
that he could make more money by sending
bad Teas 10 the New York market than On
good Teas. We are resolved TO overthrow
this fraud; and now call upon agents in ev-
cry town in the United States TO come for
ward and buy the Teas imported by the
PEKIN TEA COMPANY; and we pledge
ourselves, that if IN SIX months they do not
sell more Tea than the oldest and largest
dealers in the town, we will give them our
Tea without charge. This is plain English
and cannot be misunderstood. We appeal
for testimony 10 the immense success of our
agents In any part of the United States.
pAgents uanted IN every 7oun in the
United STATES for the sale of these Teas, by
auhich they can make money, and confer q ben-
eft upon the Public by supplying the pure
