" A report comes from the district of Wagunyah, N. .\V., of a futtlcr and his family exbibiti> g very serious sympton-8 of poisoning after nirtuking of: their evening meal. In searching for the cause, sue piciori Sell on the tea they had used. A sample tafien from a one pound tiu in use was analysed and found tocon'ain strong traces of muriatic arid, the presence of which is caused by the use of spirits of sa tv in welding the parts of tin together.: 'J he analyst warns consumers that tea packed in small tins, owing to its very absorbent nature, is very liable to become impregnated with this acid, and therefore dangerous for buroan consumption, aad advises that the very safest package to purchase is that packed in lead with: an Inside lining of vegetable parchment. This Btjia * of pa-.kct is quite impervious to the air, and tea so packed has been known to retain ali its aroma and strength for a period of five years.'

I gave ib such remedies as are usually given in such cases, but aa noihing gave relief, we sent far a physician and it was under his care for a week. At this time the child had been sick for about ten days and was having about twenty-five operations of the bowels every twelve hours, and we were convinced that unless it soon obtained relief it would not live. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was recommended, and I decided to try it. I soon noticed a change for the better ; by its continued use a com* pleta oure was brought about and it is now perfectly healthy.—C. L. BoGGS, Stump town, Gilmer Co., W. Va.
