' i A GOOD CUP o*TEAw really a scientific preparation. Some prefer all black Tea, others a ■ mixture of green. The most wholesome is that made from black alone, and if ene tenspoonful of tea be allowed for each person besides an extra one for the teapot, an.infusion of excellent strength, may be obtained. The Tea should be made in a bright metal teapot if possible, because bright substances retain the beat longer than rough ones t a metal teapot extracts all the strength in the first infusion of Tea, leaving none for tho last brewing, an earthenware teapot being slower in its action upon the herb admits of a better Tea bsing poured out at last. Then the water must not only . have just boiled, but be in the very ' act of boiling at the time it is poured over tbo leaves, or no good Tea can be made. If the water has stopped or gone off the boil one half minute, the Tea will be weak and tastetaw, for only water really at the boiling . point will extract the qualities of the Tea, and it should stand from fifteen to twenty minutes before pouring out.. The . teapot, should, be tfab» roughly dry and warm before put* . ting the T<*a. in. In touring the foiling water on to tbe Tea it is best only to half fill the teapot, and in ten minutes to add the remainder. By this process tbe heat it kept up. When the infusion has once been made it is useless to add any more Tea to that already in tbe teapot. If more be required, it is better to use a second teapot, jug, or largo cup, taking care to coyer closely, and. place in the oven till fully infused, then it msy be added to that already in tbe teapot., It seems an easy thing to make a Cup of Good Tsa—and really is so, WHEN YOU GET IT AT McGO WAN'S. r 3/- Tea at McGowan's. * Wanted \\t ANTED, a thorough GENERAL VV SERVANT in a small family.
