COFFEE BY THE Ton We are informed by

just received from the Messrs. Arbuakle
Bros the great coffee ~rOasters of tho United
States, $4,000 pounds of their various
brands of roasted coffee, all put up in enc
pound packages.
The above is equal to nine tons. This ID
simply an astonishing fact, and when we
consider such a vast quantity of coffee we
are at a loss t" know what they would do
with it. But Bloom & Co tell US that it is
half sold already, and that they have ordered
on another lot.
The statement is an evidence at on co that
the essential qualities of good coffee, name>
Iy strength, purity and richness of flavor.
are all appreciated by our people.
The Messrs. Arbuekles roast several brands
Of oofEse called Paska. Quaker City, Marsh
and Ariosa, all Of which are sold by our
merchants. The ArieRs brand is their best,
however, and has "A1buckle Bros" name on
the package.
The already great and Increasing demand
for the above %cotfees is az much Of a surprise
