Is added. and so on. Sometimes leaves are tnus
kept soaking for day or more. The result Is
that the decOction Is loaded. not only with thein'
but with from to II per cent OF tannn, anu
with other even more deleteriOus substances.
This form Of preparation Is almost univefsai
among kitchen servants. and among shop ana
factory girls. who also are great tea-drinkers,
and Is too often practfsed among other people OF
small means, who do not wish TO waste single
leaf so long as there is any strength IN II.
Against this particular phase OF the evil cru
SADIE may we'll be directed. Tcadrinkers should
be taught how TO prepare the beverage proper
~. so that 1t will be comparatively innocuolis;
and should be warned that such decoctions Gs
they have been making are nothing else tlian
rank pOisons Physicians doubtless give sucn
advice to their patients whom they find s'hcr-
ing from tea intOxicatiOn. But the mistress or
the household should give Ii TO her domes'ics,

missionary and dispenser Of charity among the
poor should make the same facts known to I'LL
whom they visit. This Is light matter.
There Is serious reason to believe that many
cases Of suicide and insanity are directly due
TO tea poisoning. while the number OF chronic
inyalds from the same cause in this city alone
IS to be reckOned by thousands. 1t Is high time
