A
TREATISE
ON
FOREIGN TEAS,
_ABSTRACTED_
FROM
An ingenious WORK, lately published,
ENTITLED
_AN ESSAY ON THE NERVES_;
ILLUSTRATING
Their efficient, formal, material, and final Causes; with the Manner of
the Liquids being corrupted by corrosive Acids, and stagnated by obtuse
Alkalies:
IN WHICH ARE
OBSERVATIONS ON MINERAL WATERS,
COFFEE, CHOCOLATE, _&c._
AND
An Investigation of the Nature and Preparation of Foreign Teas, with
their pernicious Effects in debilitating the Nervous System:
INTERSPERSED WITH
THE AUTHOR'S REMARKS,
Arising from an Analysis of such Preparations as may be most
beneficially substituted for INDIA TEA.
THIS SELECTION, containing the Sentiments of the many eminent Physical
Professors who have written on Foreign Teas, is designed to shew, by
the most forcible Arguments and distinguished Authorities, the extreme
Danger to which the Public are exposed from the continual Use of an
Article so pernicious and destructive to the Constitution.
[Price Six-pence.]
Dr. SOLANDER's
SANATIVE ENGLISH
TEA.
UNIVERSALLY APPROVED and RECOMMENDED
BY THE MOST
EMINENT PHYSICIANS,
IN PREFERENCE TO FOREIGN TEA,
As the most Pleasing and POWERFUL RESTORATIVE,
IN ALL
NERVOUS DISORDERS,
HITHERTO DISCOVERED.
Our first aliment at breakfast, being designed to recruit the waste of
the body from the night's insensible perspiration; an inquiry is
important, whether INDIA TEA, which the Faculty unanimously concur in
pronouncing a Species of Slow Poison, that unnerves and wears the
substance of the solids, is adequate to such a purpose--If it be
not--the inquiry is further necessary to find out a proper substitute.
If an Apozem PROFESSIONALLY approved and recommended for its nutritive
qualities, as a general aliment, has claim to public attention,
certainly Dr. SOLANDER'S TEA, so sanctioned, is the most proper morning
and afternoon's beverage.
Prepared for the Proprietor by an eminent Botanist.
Sold Wholesale and Retail by the Proprietor's Agent, Mr. T. GOLDING,
at his Warehouse for Patent Medicines, No. 42, Cornhill, London; and
Retail by Mr. F. NEWBERY, No. 45, St. Paul's Church-Yard; Messrs.
BAILEY'S, Cockspur-street; Mr. W. BACON, No. 150, Oxford-street; Mr.
OVERTON, No. 47, New Bond-street; and by Mr. J. FULLER, South Side of
Covent Garden. Also by the Venders of Patent Medicines in most Cities
and Towns, in England, Ireland, and Scotland.
Sold in Packets at 2s. 9d. and in Canisters at 10s. 6d. each, Duty
included.
Liberal Allowance for Exportation, to Country Venders, and to Schools.
The native and exotic Plants which chiefly compose Dr. Solander's Tea,
being gathered and dried with peculiar attention, to the preserving of
their sanative Virtues, must render them far more efficacious than many
similar Preparations, which by being reduced to Powder, must have those
Qualities destroyed they might otherwise possess.
