Green Tea Drinkers. A correspondent of the Missionary Advocate, writing from Foo Choo, China, says: — "Several American ships laying in port waiting the arrival of green teas. The Americans are green enough to prefer an infusion of Prussian blue, rendering that article so scarce and high in the vicinity of the green teas,' that the natives can hardly afford to use it on the venitians of the verandah's. If some hundred of good ladies who go with their heads tightly bandaged a day or two each week with sick headache, and whose only remedy is 'green tea,' would abandon the use of 'green tea' altogether, they would find in the remedy itself the source of the disease."
