ZPOISqisTIEID! " A report comes from the district of Wagunyah, N.S.W., of a settler and his family exhibiting very serious symptoms of poisoning after partaking of their evening meal. In searching for the cause, suspicion fell on the tea they had used. A Bomple taken from a one pound tin in use was analysed and found to contain strong traces of muriatic acid, the presence of which is caused by the use of spirits of Balta in welding the parts of tin together. The aualyet warns consumers that tea packed in small tin?, owing to its very absorbent nature, is very lialile to become impregnated with this acid, and therefore dangerous for human consumption, and advises that the very safest package to purchase is that packed in lead with an inside lining of vegetable parchment. This style of packet is quite impervious to tne air, and lea so packed has been known to retain all its aroma and strength for a period of five yeara." NOTE.-KOZIE TEA is packed in Lead with an inside LiuiDg of Vegetable Parchment, KAITERATAHI HOTEL.
