POISONED! "A report, comes from the district of Wnnunyrth, N.S.W., of a settler and his family exhibiting very serious symptoms of , poisoning after partaking of their evening i meul. I v seal ching for ttie cause, suspicion fell on the tea they had used. A sample i taken from a one pound tin in use was i analysed and found to contain stroug traces of muriatic acid, the presence of which is caused by the use of spirits of salts in welding the parts of tin together. The analyst warns consumers that tea packed in small tin?, owing to its very absorbent nature, is very liable to become impregnated with tins 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 vepouble parchment. This style of packet is quite impervious to the air, and tea so packed his been Uuown to retain all its aromu end strength for a period of five years.' 1 ■[VJCTE.— KOZIB TEA is packed in Lead 131 with an inside Lining of Vegetable Parchment, KAITERATAHI HOTEL.
