TEA DRINKING
IS IT INJURIOUS? The New Zealanders are such confirmed tea drinkers that it is no use talking or writing about any injurious effects therefrom. There are no serous after-effects from tea except when it is •taken too freely with food. It is considered unwise to take any kind of drink in excess with meals for the reason that it dilutes the digestive juices to such an extent that they are not strong enough to act on the food properly. The first effects of this kind of eating and drinking is constipation, and that is well known, to all kinds of disorders. At the first sign take a Dr Morse’s Indian Root Pill and keep the system in order. They aid in the digestion and assimilation of the food, and are not like an internal lubricant, which leaves the liver and digestive organs in the same state as before taking. If reasonable care is taken at the first sign of constipation by taking a Dr Morse’s Indian Root Pill, tea can bo used without fear within reasonable limits.
