 1 The readers of the JOURNAL AND COURIER | have good idea of the whereabouts, sayings 1 and doings of the leading men and women of l the country, so it seems to us that perhaps | little information as to the things which in terest the common masses will not come ] amiss. The desire to make money in some | shape we believe to be part and parcel of the ! makeup of the average American citizen. This has been forciPly illustrated here in New Haven for the past three weeks. The | first of October there appeared in all the daily and weekly papers advertisements coV- l ering about column in each paper, setting | forth the merits of certain kind of Tea and | Coffee, announcing that 8 store was open for | the sale of the same that in every can of Tea and Coffee an article of value would be | found. The people bought, and that they
 obtained good quality of goods and that l some of the articles were valuable. What was ! the result2 Those who obtained articles of | value showed them to others. They in turn purchased and the store was crowded from 1 morning until 1O:3O at night The manager, evidently smart business man, paid out large sums for advertising, varying the style
 of notice and each day giving the names of l the fortunate buyers Everyone, high and | low rich and poor, purchased Tea and Golf | fee, the papers gave the list of the fortunate I ones, aud we would read Senator Smith, $56 | in gold; John Smith (colored) $50 in can of !. tea Evidently everything was conducted I fairly, and those not finding diamonds, watches,> money, etc got their moneys worth ia Tea and Coffee, as the tea cans con- | tained 11 and the coffee cans 3 pounds. This company has appointed more than | fifty agents in various cities, none of whom are now selling other articles than TEA and COFFEE, yet each agent has large and rapidly growing trade as the superior quality ! of their goods becomes known. Orders by mail should be accompanied by cash l. l Iy filled and forwarded to all parts of the United States. Address Importers Tea O., 396 and 398 State Street, New Haven, Conn.
