Our second package wblcli we sent for, was received all 
right, and has given good satisfaction, and all are highly 
pleased. Many think that they don’t keep as good tea in 
Oslikosli, as your 10s. tea's—tlieir $2 is certainly no better. 
I have taken pains to scatter as many of those circulars as 
L could, and I presume others tvill get up Clubs and get 
their tea from you. 
Still there are some “knowing ones” left yet who still 
insist It Is a “ Swindle,” “ Sell,” and such like expressions; 
duce the. cost of their Teas and Coffees about .one-third by 
sending directly to the Cheat Amebican Tea Cosipany.

NOTICE. 
TO YOUNG MEN from the farms— 
MIDDLE-AGED MEN who desire 
to better their condition in Life 
—and to PARENTS who would 
make their Sons successful, use¬ 
ful Men. 
I have suggested the best Course of Study 
and System of PRACTICAL Training for pre¬ 
paring Young and Middle-aged Men for active, 
successful life, ever adopted in this or any 
other country. 
My course for Farmers’ Sons is the best in the 
world, it being the most useful, the shortest and 
most comprehensive, and within the reach of all. 
Such is the popularity of my System of Prac¬ 
tical, Useful Education, that my College at 
Poughkeepsie, N. Y., on the Hudson, has be¬ 
come tlie largest Educational Institution on the 
Continent—enjoying patronage from all sections 
of our own country. South America, Europe, 
Cuba, Mexico, and the Canadas, and exerting 
more power and influence for Practical, Popu¬ 
lar Education than all Commercial or Business 
Colleges in this country combined. 
Such was the extended patronage from the 
West, that it became necessary to establish an 
Institution atCliicago,—under the Principalship 
of Prof. E. P. Eastman, —where this system 
of Education could be enjoyed, and its success 
has no parallel in the liistory of Schools and 
Colleges, it being to-day the largest Educa- 
tionai Institution in the West. 
Young men from the Earms who can devote 
a few months to Study, Men of Middle-age who 
desire to change their present employment for 
something more remunerative, and othm’s Avhp 
desire lucrative, honorable situations in busi¬ 
ness, can enjoy advantages here not to be 
found elsewhere. 
Parents who desire to educate their sons in 
the best manner, in the least time, and at the 
least expense, for useful, successful men, will 
please investigate the clainj^ of this institution. 
Reference is given to the. best Educators and 
Business Men in tlie country. 
Graduates are assisted to such situations as 
they merit, through the College Agencies iii the 
different cities. ' References are given to more 
than 300 in Government Departments, and 
more than 400 in the City of New-York alone, 
who owe their success to this Institution. 
The prescribed Course of Study can be com¬ 
pleted in three months, at a total expense for 
Tuition and board of from $85 to $100. The 
Institution guarantees the total expense not to 
exceed One Hundred dollars for three months, 
and receives Students for that sum. Those 
wishing to become members will be admitted 
any week day in the year. There are no exam¬ 
inations at commencement. 
The Illustrated Paper of 16 pages, giving full 
information of the Course of Sludj', and the^ 
Eastman system of Training, is sent free ot 
charge to all who desire it. 
Applicants will apply in person or by letter to

NOTE.' 
The Public ■will not confound this Institution ■wltli the 
any small-so-called- “ Commercial ” and “ Business 
ColleseB” that have sprung up in the diflerciit Cities, 
liev hear no more comparison to this Institution than .a 
iiiimon school does to Yaie College. Tliis Institution is 
le fountalu of them all, and Is exerting more power aud iii- 
Lieiice for good than all comhiiied. 'Some claim to have 
itrodiiced practical Instruction on the plan *^auglit here. 
, will be understood that the Eastman System of Practical 
'vdiiiiiio wrtS ffiTintcd by Ifi'V to this Colleges, 
ateiits d’ated Sept, lilli, 1864. and Eastman 
eeiisle and Chicago, are the only Commercial Institutions 
f tills couiiti y that conduct their 
also the only Business Instltntioii •'•'at >>as a egulai sja 
iin of Agencies, to procure situations foi Graduates.
