CHEAT AND GROW RICH.


THIS has been the scored principle Of TOO many
the wholesale dealers in TEAS up 10 this time, 4
they have practieed the most shameful imposition
on the country Merchants without any fear Of de-
lection. Bul new era in the TIA TRADE has
come, and the PEklN TEA COMPANY claims
The honor OF its Introduction. They were the
iirst to raise the bannerof Reform, on which they
have inscribed the simple words-'Pure Teas at
Honest Prices!" 4 complete revolution has been
the consequence. Let consumers OF tea look al
what We have done.
/ lsi. We were the first TO send them tea that u
sed to be called too good Tor them.
Cd. We have driven out OF the market vast
amount Of trash, and.inIrodueed better class Of
teas than has ever been sold. Importers OF teas
of.en came TO Us to get for their own use, and fer
Their friends, fine qualities OF teas 'Eey can find
nowhere else.
30. We have reduced prices more than 90 per
cent, both OF BIack and iireen teas. The whole
sale grOcsrs say we are running the trade, and call
us humbugs. This we have done already, and
now see what we are ready to do:
let. We will sell teas by the single chest, half
ches,s, or Ia lbs. box, al the same prices that
wholesale grocers pay TO the importers when they
buy by the hundred packages.
2d. The wholesale grorers only allow l3, and
at most "a lbs. iare TO the half chest. This IS a
cheat. We allow in most cases, IS 10 l6 lbs, on
the same.
Sd. We hereby undertake to sell every kind Of
teas from six to twelve cents per ID. cheaper than
the wholesale grOcers DO.
| How eau We do this as Ks the country mer-
chanl
! This i, our arsger. We are content with
/ per Ct. profit instead OF % and so per CT. AS a
wholesale grocer
7 u. IL. &
chant for saving him hereafter fom being cheat
ed. Let them come to the warehouse OF the Pc
! KIN TEA COMPANY, and compare samples Of
tea they get eIsewherei aud it they buy bad teas
/ then at high prices, il is Their own fault,
| An English importer lataly bOased that he could
make more money Iy serd ding bad teas TO the N.
! Y. marke! than on good teas. We are resolved
to overthrow this fraud; and now call upon a.
gents IN every town in the United States TO come
| forward and buy the TEAS imported 10y the Pc
| KIN TEA COMPANY; and we pledge ouseves
that Il in six months lhay DO no. sell more tea
/ than the Oldest and largest dealers ia the town,
we will give them our tea without any charge.
This is the plain English and cannot be nIisunder
stood. We appeal for testimony TO the immense
success OF our agents in any part OF the United
States.
