iPOisqisriEr)! "A report comes from the distrlot of Wagunyah, N.S.W., of a, settler and his family exhibiting very Berious symptoms of , poisoning after partaking of their evening meal. In searching for tho cause, suspicion fell on the tea they had uoed. A sample laken from a one pound tin in use was analysed ami found to contain strong traces of muriatic acid, the presence of which is caused by the uso of spirits of salts in weldir.g the parts of tin together. The analyst warns consumers that tea paoked in small tin*, owing to its very absorbent nature, is very liable to become impregnated with this ncid, 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 bo packed has been known to retain all ita arnma and atrength for a period of five years."
