FREXCII BREAKFAST AND DINNER (
OWING to Ihe very high price of Coffee,
and the great difficulty in procuring a good,
uniform and reliable article our customers
have often expressed a wUh that ihey
could be supplied from first hands. It was
the intention of
The Great American Tea Co rap my,
to do a strictly -Tea business, but as we
have had some customers living at a dis
tance that have relied upon ns to supply
them exclusively with Tea and Coffee, it
being inconvenient from them to come to
New York. The Great Tea Coffee Empo
rium of this country and as our Tea Tas
ter was possessed of information relating
to a CotJee that could be turnishe I at a
moderate price, and give universal satis
faction, and at the same time afford the
retailer a handsome profit w'e have ben
compelled to supplv those paries. THIS
COFFEE HAS BECOME SO POPULAR
with our customers and their sales have
increased to such n extent that we have
been compelled o make large additions lo
our machiner, which will enable os lo
supply a few more cut mers with it. We
will therefore tend it to t-hose who may or
der. It i fast SUPERSEDING ALL OTHER
COFFEES. This coffee has been used for
more than a rentifry in Pans, and since
its introduction into this country, it has
been in use by nome of the lead ing French
Restaurants here The Parisians are said
to be the best judges of eoffe; and the
great favor in which it is held by them is
ihe best recommendation that "can be pro
duced for its fine flavor and healthy effects
upon the human system.
We put up but one grade of this coffee,
and that is of a quality that our customers
have found from experience will give per
fect satisfaction and meet all the demands
oi their trade. It is the lowest price thai
we can commend.
We do all our business on the most ex
tensive scale, buy by the cargo and sell at
only two cents per pound profit.
We put op this coffee in barrels only, of
125 pounds each.' This method of putting
it up saves from 2 to 5 cents per pound to
the customer, and by its being in a large
quantity it retains its fine flavor much
longer in this 'orm than in any other. - We
end with each barrel Show-Cants, Circu
lars and Posters, to assist the dealer to in
troduce it to hi customers. We hope our
customers will take pains .to have them
well posted ftp and distributed, as it will
be to their advantage to do so.
This coffee we warrant to give perfect
satisfaction, and if it does not please, (he
purchaser has the privilege of returning ,
ttve whole or any part of it within 60 day-, J
and having his money refunded together
with all the expenses of transportation both

That a simple machine i better than a

That Thumb screws and Fastening cause

That cog wheel regulators are not essen
