Both are made from the same bush and both are equally pure. The difference is in the process of manufacture which gives each a different flavour. Black Tea after it is plucked is withered and partially ‘fired‘ or dried, then allowed to oxidize by being exposed to the air. This gives Black Tea its dark reddish colour when drawn. Green tea is immediâ€" ately steamed after plucking, which preâ€" vents oxidization. There are delicious blends of "SALADA®" in both of these types and also a unique blend of Black and Green Tea Mixed.

Mr. Preston states his own facts in his own way, and backs them up by saying, ‘*Now I‘ll give $100.00 to anyone that can show this is not correct.‘‘ He is backing up his side of the case with cold cash. ~Mr. Preston‘s letter follows:â€" Matheson, ‘Ont., April 13th, 1925. Porcupine Advance, Timmins, ‘Ont. Dear Sir:â€"You will see in The Toronto Star Weekly of this week a story of the Blind Prospector, and written by F. G. Giffins. I may say that some of it may ‘be O. K., but that part of his story where he states this John Novack, the Blind Prospecâ€" tor, located the Dome is absolutely a lie and a false statement, and I have $100.00 to hand over to him or anyâ€" one else in Poreupine or Ontario that can prove he located the Dome in 1909. I will also pay anyone $100.00 that can prove that it was not Harry A. Preston, who discovered the Dome around the 6th day of June, 1909, and I will also pay anyone in Poreuâ€" pine $100.00 cash, and agree to give them half interest in any claims 1 may stake from this date to my death day if they can tell a more correct, The following letter was received last week from Mr. Harry A. Preston, ‘Matheson. It makes mighty interestâ€" ing neading, and. explains itself. When the article referred to appearâ€" ed in The Toronto Star Weekly many here pointed out its inaceuracies. ‘*Never even saw, knew or heard of that Blind Prospector,‘‘ said more than one real oldâ€"timer. ‘*Oh, just Toronto Star stuff!‘‘ was ~anothar way of looking at it.

Anâ€" other $100.00 I will pay anyone who can prove he did not. There: have beert a few stories about Poreupine but there has never been one publishâ€" ed that is absolutely the truth, nor has the credit of the discoveries been given to the right party and to whom it belongs. But there is a man named H. A. Preston living at Matheson, Ont., who can tell the truth, and ‘he has ‘‘The Annual Trainmen‘s Ball givâ€" en on Monday evening here was cerâ€" tainly a success ‘both in ‘numbers es well as financially.

There is one sure thing: I was alone on the point at Poreupine Lake the last week of July and the first week of August, 1909, and was taking care of the two camps, our own and (Geo. Bannerman‘s, directly across the lake, and I never saw one human ‘being unâ€" til my own gang returned with grub and supplies. I used to watch seven moose come down to the lake every evening, and just near what is now South Poreupine they used to stay in the waten, playing around for half an hour every evening. Now, I have about thirty questioas I can put to Mr. Novack, and I‘ll bet he can‘t answerâ€" them correctly. There is at present only one man, I believe, in the whole Poreupine Minâ€" Yours tnuly. H. A. Preston. P.S.â€"Griffin‘s story says this Blind Prospector was at Elk Lake when he heard the roan of Poreupine, and he got there a little late for the staking. I guess he did all right because the Scottishâ€"Ontario and the Wilson stakâ€" ing, called Dome and Dome extension, and some in Whitney, were the finst stakings, so how could this blind Noâ€" vack locate the Dome before he or anyone else staked near it.â€"H.
