During the seven- teenth century, all tea Was imported from China and 'cost. from $25,00 to 00.00 per pound. Not until 1836 did any tea reach England from India. In that year the first shipment was made from the now famous tea growing district of Assam. India to- day supplies fully half the world's tea re- quirements and provides some of the finest teas grown. The rich body of "SALADA'', is due to the select India teas used in the blend.

Rankine sat very quiet for a few minutes his eyes following the long graceful line of the water, glinting under the light of a young moon just breaking through the, fleecy clouds.
