up a club. The answer is simply tliis: Let each person 
wisliing to join in a club, say how much tea or coffee he 
wants, and select tlie kind and price from our Price List, as 
published in tlie paper or in our circulars. Write the nam'es 
kinds, and amounts plainly on a list, and when the club is 
complete, send it to ns by mail, and wo will put each party’s 
goods in separate packages, and mark the name upon tliera 
with the cost, so there need be no confusion in their distri¬ 
bution-each party getting exactly what ho orders, and no 
more., flie cost of transportation, the members of tlie club 
can divide equitably among themselves. 
The funds to pay for the goods ordered can be sent by 
drafts on New York, by Post-Office money orders, or by 
Express, as may suit tlie convenience of the club. Or if the 
amount ordered exceeds $30, we will, if desired, send the 
goods by Express, to “ collect on delivery.” 
Hereafter wo will send a complimentary package to the
