GREAT AMERICAN TEA COMPANY
Its Fast Sulics'sedssg all Other
Coffee.

This Coffee has been used for more than
century in Paris, and since its Introduction in
to this country it has been in use by some of
the leading French Restaurants here. The Pa
risians are said to be the best judges of coffee;
and the great favor in which il is held by them
is the best recommendation that can bt produ-
ced for its fine flavor and healthy effects upon
the human system.
We put up but gre grade Of this Coffee, and
that Is of a quality that our customers have
found from experience will give perfect satis-
faction and meet all the demands of that
trade 1t is the lowest price that can rec
ommend.
We do all our business on the most estehsiv6
scale, buy by the cargo and sell at only two
cents per pound profit.
We put up this Coffee in Barrels only, of ] %
Pounds each. This method of putting it up
saves from 2 10 cents per pound to the con-
| sumner, and by its being in a large quantity IL
retains its fine flavor much longer in this form
than in any other. We send with each barrel
Show Cards, Circulars and Post ers, TO assist
the dealer to Introduce it TO his customers.
We hope our customers will take pains TO have
them well posted up and distributed, as it will
be TO their advantage to do so.
This Coffee we warrant to give perfect salts

has the privilege of returning the whole or any
part Off within 60 days and having his money
refunded together with all the expenses of trans
portation both ways

being considerably larger than II was. the last
year; NJ percentage being - cchts on the 500.
This increase in the levy and percentage was
wholly beyond the control of tic undersigned.
The enormous increase in th6 PRICES or every
article of life has contributed hrrGiy to that
end. few heavy items in jl'e levy list, in
which the Commissioners Rhi no discretion,
can be specified, which; of themselves, will
nearly account for tho increase. The sum of
$40, 7GG &C was demanded and levied for the
support of tile schools of Allegany county, and
$4,000, indcr the obligatory provisions Of the
Act of 1861, chapter 303, was appropriated for
