Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This is the largest of the Seven pagodas of Mahabalipuram (once a city and now a village), 35 miles south of Madras. This temple is called the Rath of Bhima, and is an elaborate piece of sculpture, measuring 48 feet by 25 feet, and rising 26 feet from the ground. Each of these Pagodas has been carved out of a single block of stone.[end] [A blind-stamped advertising message is found below the Tucks caption in some cards used for tea advertising in America] A notable product of this country is the delicious India tea. It grows to perfection as India is its natural home: the only country where tea is found growing wild. India tea is prepared entirely by special cleanly machines in accordance with modern hygienic requirements and is so perfectly pure that a single teaspoonful makes two cups. Use absolutely boiling water. Steep five minutes only. As a summer drink India tea is most refreshing. Served hot with cream and sugar to taste it makes a luscious beverage for breakfast or dinner. India tea is for sale by: (stamped) W A Flint Co 101-3-5-7-9 Main St. Vincennes Ind
