A CAUTION TO PARENTS.
To the Editor. Sir,—l think it is quite right parents should be cautioned against letting their children cat the berries of the tutu and other poisonous plants growing in tho bush. A little boy of mine, five years of age, has just nearly lost his life from eating them, and had it not been for the prompt and skilful treatment of Dr Batchelor, of Forbury Road, the case would most likely have been fatal; therefore, if yam can spare a corner in your paper to insert this, it might be a warning to many who are igno., rant of the consequences of sating tutu.—l am, &c., Alfred Bird, Caversham, February 14.
