sive coffee. If you want it, [
have it, fine old Java, not a
grain Vi anything else in it;
but | can't sell it roasted for
less than forty cents, nor can
any one else; it just can't be
done. You know l buy it ii
the green state, and therefore
know exactly what sell.
Roasters have found that
certain fine Central American
cofees come nearer to Java
than any other, and tits a very
easy matter to label a package
"Java. = Now if you want to
buy a good substitute for Java
l have a very fine Salvador
which | sell at thirty cents.
You don't pay anything for a
fancy label. It is strong, fine
and full-bodied.
