GARLIC PARSLEY TABLETS 
Garlic (Allium sativum) belongs to the 
same family as Onion, Leek, Chives, etc. 
The whole plant, particularly the bulb, 
has a very strong, penetrating odor and 
taste, due to a powerful volatile oil it 
contains. 
Garlie was known and used in ancient 
Bgypt by Romans and Greeks not only as 
a vegetable or condiment for eulinary 
purposes, but also as a medicine. Many 
old writers praised the garlic as a medi- 
cine and its old name, ‘Poor Man’s 
Treacle,’ shows plainly its popularity and 
reputed usefulness. 
Garlic syrup was well known as a 
home remedy as an expectorant in coughs 
due to colds or bronchial irritation. 
We prepare the ‘‘Compound Garlic Tab- 
lets with Parsley” from dehydrated garlic 
and parsley leaves. The latter tend to 
modify and cover the unpleasant odor of 
garlic and also serve as a mild diuretic. 
We are placing this preparation in our 
catalog following the requests and in- 
quiries of many of our friends and cus- 
tomers.

PEPPERMINT TEA LEAVES 
Healthful Tea for Young and Old 
Peppermint is an age-old health bever- 
age enjoyed by our grandparents, their 
parents and many generations before 
them. Even the aboriginal peoples brewed 
teas from mints found growing in their 
native lands. Peppermint tea deserves @ 
come-back because of its real merit as 
table tea. It deserves a place on the mod- 
ern table because this high-speed and 
highly stimulated civilization needs sooth- 
ing and healthful habits more than ever 
in the history of the human race. The 
use of Peppermint tea is so harmless that 
it can be given to babies with colic (one or 
two tablespoons of warm Peppermint tea, 
sweetened with sugar or honey). Pepper- 
mint tea may be used alone or made in 
various ways. Lemon may be added— 
sweetened if desired or added with other 
healthful tea herbs such as Alfalfa herb 
(vitamin rich), clover flowers (Indian 
used tea), Linden flowers (an old Euro- 
pean tea).
