zpoisqisriEnDi "A report comes from the district of Wagunyah, N.S.W., of a settler and his family exhibiting very serious aymptomo of poisoning after partaking of their evening meal. In searching for tho eauße, suspicion fell on tho^ea they had ÜBed. A sample taken from a one pound tin in use was analysed and found to contain strong tr&ces of muriatic acid, the presence of whioh ia caused by the use of spirits of salts in welding the parts of tin together. The analyst warnß consumers that tea packed in small tinp, owing to its very absorbent nature, is very liable 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 the air, and tea so packed bus been known to retain all itß aroma and strength for a period of five years."
