EFFECTS.
From the view that has been taken of the nature, preparation, and manner of using, the salutary effects are most clearly and easily to be ascertained. As the basis of this tea is the combined principle of the most balsamic oils, nutritious salts, and animating sulphurs, which the vegetable world produces, their effects must be proportionably salutary. And as their combination is such as to correct the pernicious qualities of each other, their conjoint effect must be the most wholesome that can possibly be administered for the health of human nature. As every simple, however specific in certain cases, possesses qualities that are pernicious in other respects, it has been the first principle of physical enquiry not only to find the basis of a medicine, but to form compounds or ingredients that corrected the injurious tendency of each other. With this scientific principle Dr. Solander having composed his sanative tea, has rendered it the most general specific in its effects of any medicinal aliment.
This tea affording a compound oil, which is formed of the most aromatic vegetables the earth affords, it is no wonder its effects, like honey, should approach so near a general specific. The invaluable oils, uniting with the sulphurs of the sanative tea, recruit, soften, and lubricate the juices, diminish the too great elasticity, dryness, and crispness of the nervous fibres, and afford the exhausted liquids fresh supplies. Their effects are consequently exceedingly restorative in all cases, where the force of the fibres and the vessels are too strong, the circulation too rapid, and the blood too attenuated or diminished; as it prevents the too quick action of the solids, and the too rapid motion of the blood, the body is nourished, and the mind prepared for the refreshment of sleep when the approach of night invites to repose. In spitting of blood its effects are particularly beneficial. The oil being easily detached from the earth of the plant is, in such cases, exceedingly nutritive, and, by its checking the stimulation, and sheathing the acrimony of the humours, the blood is replenished with the most healing and balsamic virtues.
In pleurisies, ulcers, and abscesses of the lungs, hectic fevers, dry coughs, night sweats, and difficulty of breathing, the balsamic oil and sulphur of this tea is most salutary.
The dropsical, phlegmatic, corpulent, cathetic, and all such as are in their stamina relaxed, will find the greatest relief in its constant use; and to those who are emaciated, either from hereditary or acquired disease, it is particularly beneficial.
In seasons when experience informs us that the blood requires cleansing and attenuating, this tea will be of considerable service to the healthy as well as the diseased. By these means the constitution will be preserved and restored from all those chronic and acute afflictions, which are the consequences of acrimonious humours and foulness of blood.
As this tea produces the effects of cleansing the stomach, promoting digestion, diluting the chyle, and invigorating the whole viscera, it should be constantly drank by those who live freely.
Unlike most medicinal applications, this tea requires no previous preparation of the body. Such are its nature and progression of effects, that it first renders the body in a state suitable to receive succeeding benefits; nor is it dangerous, like mineral waters, to which persons afflicted with nervous complaints generally resort. Persons suffering acute or inflammatory diseases, or who have their vessels too greatly constringed, need not be under the apprehensions of suffering scirrhuses, or even death, which is the confluence of drinking, in such cases, mineral waters; but, on the contrary, they may expect to receive, from the use of the sanative tea, the most beneficial effects, not only in the above, but also in the gout and rheumatism, from its moderate use producing a gentle perspiration.
To account for the variety of salutary effects that this valuable discovery produces, we shall now proceed to consider its operation as a medicine and an aliment, which will afford the most convincing and conclusive arguments that can be possibly adduced in favour of its sanative qualities.
To consider its medicinal properties or effects, it is necessary to state in what manner it acts first upon the solids, next upon the fluids, and lastly, how it operates upon both together; for on these three principles the power and quality of a medicine solely depend. In acting upon the solids, it either alters their texture and cohesion, or, by diluting the canals, change the figure of the sides. But a medicine acting upon fluids only either alters their properties, or brings them out of the body. All medicines, however, act as well upon the solids as the fluids; for the latter can scarcely be altered without in some degree affecting the former.
As all medicines derive the greatest qualities from their filling, evacuating, or altering the smallest parts, the sanative tea possesses the most restorative properties from its action upon the smallest nervous vessels, and not in the arteries, veins, glands, lymphatic and adipose vessels. Thus, as all augmentation and accretion of the greater depend on the extension of the smallest lateral vessels, which are nervous tubuli, the nutrition and restitution of what is wasted must be considerably derived from the constant use of this beverage morning and evening. From this the medicinal effects of the tea upon the solids are found to be consistent with the first of physical principles; for the nutrition of the solids, which is made by the application of any part to the place of a wasted part, is always effected in the smallest canals, of which the greater consist.
And as every salutary change of the fluids is made in the smallest vessels, the sanative tea possessing the power of conveying nutrition into the most minute channels of the body, the liquids must derive from it the greatest renovation.
From this combined effect upon the solids and liquids, the strength of the greater vessels is increased, and thus is the whole aggregate body invigorated; for every artery derives its energy from its sides, which are composed of the minutest vessels. To enter into a complete detail of its medicinal principles, would require a volume itself; we must therefore avoid any further enquiry of its effects as a physical remedy, in order to leave a few lines for its consideration as an aliment.
The qualities of an aliment chiefly depend on their nature affording that nourishment which is proper to the time of taking and the state of the body. Indeed, without their possessing these relative properties, either meats or drinks are injurious instead of beneficial. For this reason physical necessity, more than tyrant custom, has caused a thinner aliment to be taken in the morning and evening than what forms the meals of dinner and supper. This necessity arises from the state of the body being in the morning just recovering its spirits from a comparative state of relaxation and imbecility, and in the afternoon from the stomach being enfeebled by recent digestion. That the body, immediately after sleep, is in a relaxed state, may be perceived by the perturbation the spirits experience from any surprise or violent action instantly succeeding. Fits and faintings have frequently been the consequence of persons of quick sensibilities being wakened. In such a state of relative debility, gross and solid food must oppress the spirits, and thus render the body incapable of deriving nourishment from such an untimely aliment. But if what is taken is light, pure, and apt for producing chyle, the stomach being capable of digesting it, must turn it to the most wholesome nutrition. To attain this end, foreign teas, from their lightness, have been universally adopted; but, as we have found, from their nature, how ill adapted they are to be given when the nerves are already too weak to bear their violent astringency, such should be used as are possessed of the most nutrition, without a tendency to irritate the relaxed fibrillæ.
When the stomach is enfeebled by recent digestion in the afternoon, to take then another meal of solid aliment must evidently tend to depress the digestive powers, and thus prevent the body from having that nourishment it might receive from a lighter aliment.
The sanative tea being found, from the preceding enquiries, to possess the most active, subtle, penetrating, and balsamic compound oils, salts, and sulphurs, which pervade, without irritation, the minutest canals, must afford that species of aliment which the body in a morning and afternoon requires. While it attenuates, it restores the tone and substance of the juices, strengthens the solids, invigorates every natural function, and thus affords the means of enjoying all the comfort that a healthy body and a happy mind can bestow.
THE END.
Our first aliment at breakfast, being designed to recruit the waste of the body from the night's insensible perspiration; an inquiry is important, whetherIndia 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 Apozemprofessionallyapproved 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.

A CAUTION.
The high estimation in which Dr. Solander's Tea is held, by the first circles of fashion, as a general beverage—the many cures it has effected—and the pleasantness of its flavor having induced several unprincipled persons to prepare and vend a base and spurious preparation under a similar title; the Proprietor, in justice to the known efficacy of this Tea, and to secure his property from further depredations, has thought proper to have an engraved copper-plate affixed to the canisters and packets of the genuine and original preparation of Dr. Solander's Sanative English Tea. This plate being entered at Stationer's Hall as the Act directs, Aug. 20, 1791, will subject such persons as imitate the same to a consequent prosecution. The Public are therefore cautioned from purchasing any article but what is distinguished by the said plate, and to observe thereon the words specified as above, of its being entered according to Act of Parliament.

ThisCelebrated Teais peculiarly efficacious in most inward wasting, loss of Appetite, Hysterical Disorders and Indigestion, depression of Spirits, trembling or shaking of the Hands or Limbs, obstinate Coughs, Shortness of Breath, and Consumptive Habits; it purifies the Blood, eases the most violent pains of the Head and Stomach, and is a wonderful Assuager of the excruciating pains of the Gout and Rheumatism, by promoting gentle Perspiration. By theNobilityandGentrythis Tea is much admired as a fashionableBreakfast; being pleasant to the taste and smell, gently astringing the fibres of the stomach, and giving them that proper tensity, which is requisite to a good digestion; and nothing can be better adapted to help and nourish the Constitution after late hours, or making too free with wine.
This Sanative Tea is highly esteemed in the East and West Indies, being unlikeIndia Tea, which the Faculty unanimously concur in pronouncing a species of Slow Poison that unnerves and wears the substance of the solids; on the contrary, this nourishes and invigorates the Nervous System, acts as aGeneral Restorative Cordial, upon debilitated Constitutions, and is a sovereign remedy in Bilious Complaints contracted in hot climates.
In the Measles and Small Pox, nothing need be given but a plenty of this Tea; drank warm at Night it promotes refreshing rest, and, as such, is a regular afternoon's beverage with many aged and infirm Persons. Being of peculiar service to children, and such who are weakly, many Parents, and others, having the care and education of Females, exclude the use of any other than this salubrious Tea.
By the Studious and Sedentary, this CELEBRATED TEA is justly considered as aMental Panacea, from its sovereign efficacy in removing complaints of the head, invigorating the mind, improving the memory, and enlivening the imagination.
The Proofs of Efficacy of Dr.Solander's Tea, being so numerous, would far exceed the limitation of a Pamphlet; the Public are therefore required to accept the following abridged List of Cures as Specimens:

Abouttwelve months ago, my daughter was afflicted with violent pains in her stomach, occasioned as was supposed, by drinking strong green tea for breakfast, without eating therewith—I had the assistance of several gentlemen of the faculty, but to no purpose; as her complaint grew worse almost daily; and it was the general opinion that she was in a decline. Anxious for the safety of my child, I tried many advertised medicines without success; till seeing in the County Chronicle the many cures performed by your Sanative Tea, I wrote to a Friend in London to procure me some of it; he readily acquiesced, and sent me a few packets of the Tea as a present: In a short time her complaint was much abated, and continuing the use of it a few weeks, she was restored to perfect health:—in justice to the merits of your Tea, you have my consent to make whatever use you please of this token of acknowledgement.

CASE XIII.To the Proprietor of theSanative Tea.
Beingvery much afflicted with a violent head-ache for a great many years, I some time ago heard a great praise of the Sanative Tea; I tried it and thought it did me good, and by continuing the use of it, it has entirely taken away my old head-ache, and I find myself much better, and am now quite well. Indeed it has done me more good than I could expect, as the head-ache is particularly our family complaint. I likewise recommended it to my brother, James Robertson, of Bradfield, Essex, and it has had the same good effects on him. Also my sister, Mrs. Shibley, of Battle-bridge, has experienced its salutary effects; therefore in justice to so excellent a thing, I send you this, hoping others troubled with a constitutional head-ache, will make use of it.

CASE XIV.To the Proprietor of theSanative Tea.
Abouttwo years ago, I was attacked with a nervous disorder in my head, which violently afflicted my whole frame. I had no rest, and oftentimes, for want of sleep, at intervals, lost my senses—being much troubled with frights and startings, the disorder increased, till most of my friends expected I should soon die. I took many things without benefit, till an acquaintance recommended me to use the Sanative Tea. I began to drink it in the night, being always very thirsty; I thought in two or three nights that I was easier; I therefore continued it, and not only drank it in the night, but used it constantly, and left off drinking India tea. I gradually got better, and am now quite recovered, having got rid of head-ache, startings, &c. I therefore wish to recommend it for its excellence to all my sex; and beg you will accept of this, hoping it may be useful.

Forsome years past, I have been afflicted with a nervous disorder, attended with a bad head-ache, and violent spasms in the stomach. I was for a long time attended by an apothecary, and took much medicine, till taking to drink the Sanative Tea, which I had heard was sold in Cornhill, it did me much good, and so pleased me in taste, that I continued the use of it, and am now quite well. You may as you think fit, make use of this my poor praise.
I am,Sir, your humble servant,
JOHN WANNOCK.No. 2, Fountain-court, Cateaton-street,Oct. 14, 1793.
CASE XXIX.To the Proprietor of the Sanative EnglishTea.
I was suddenly seized with a violent fever, and attended by a physician; but grew worse. My friends, on enquiry the next day, found me very bad; and so I remained the whole of that night; in the morning a neighboring gentlewoman stepped in, made me some of your Sanative Tea; which as she afterwards informed me, I drank greedily, and asked for more, which was given me. I then fell into a pleasing sleep, and on waking found myself so refreshed and well, that I am determined to drink it constantly. In gratitude for the benefit I have experienced from your Tea, you may depend upon my recommendation and custom.
I am,Sir, your most humble servant,
GEORGE BROWN.White Lion-street, Pentonville, Islington,Oct. 16, 1793.
CASE XXX.To the Proprietor of Dr.Solander's Tea.
Beingafflicted with a violent head-ache, a considerable time, till hearing of the Sanative Tea having cured many persons of that complaint, I was induced to make trial of it, and accordingly sent for some, which I liked so well, that I continued to drink it every morning for breakfast; and I declare, since drinking that Tea and leaving off green tea, I have been entirely freed from my former complaint—If therefore this my acknowledgement of its efficacy should induce any of my sex, who are so liable to that, so general a disorder, I don't doubt of its doing them as much service as I have experienced.
I am,Sir, your humble servant,

CASE XXXII.To the Proprietor of Dr. Solander's Tea.
Itis the duty of every individual member of society, whose health may be renovated by the use of any medicine, freely to communicate its efficacy for the public good, in order that it may be better-known and disseminated amongst his fellow-creatures.—Being from the nature of my profession (my inclination perhaps also conducing that way) necessarily accustomed to a sedentary life, I became the unhappy victim of all those horrible maladies incident to a debility of the nervous system, augmented by inattention to myself, accompanied with a depression of spirits, verging to an almost absolute despondency. A gentleman, whose goodness and philanthropy eminently characterise him, recommended to me Dr. Solander's Tea, and happily by the use of it I have experienced the most unspeakable relief, and my health is completely re-established, my nerves have assumed their natural tone, and my animal spirits that hilarity they formerly possessed. With all the fervor of gratitude for the salutary effects of this incomparable Tea, I sincerely recommend its use to those who may be afflicted in the same way. I am,Sir, &c.
