A GOOD CUP o* TEA is really a soientifio. preparation. Some prefer all black Tea, others a mixture of green. The most wholesome is that made, from black alone, and if one teaspoonful of tea be allowed for each " person besides an extra one for the teapot, an in- - fusion of excellent strength may be obtained. The Tea should be made in a bright metal teapot- if possible, becauee bright substances' retain the heat longer than rough ones ; a metal teapot extrapts all the strength in the first infusion of Tea, leaving none for the last brewing, an earthenware teapot, being slower in its action upon the herb, admits of a betttr Tea being poured out at last. Then the .water must not only have just boiled, bul be in the very act of boiling at the time it is poured over the 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 tasteless, for only water really at the boiling point will extract the qualities of the Tea, and it should stand from fifteen i to twenty minutes before pouring j out. The teapot should be tho- ' roughly dry and warm before pwt« , ting the Tea in. In rouring the ; boiling water on to the Ten"it is best only to half fill the teapot, and in ten minutes to add the remainder. By this process the heat is kept up. When the infusion has once been made it is useless to add any. more Tea to that already in the teapot. If more be required, it ia better to use a second teapot, jug, or large cup, taking. care to cover closely, and place in the oven till fully"infused, then it may be addod to that already in the teapot. It seems an easy tbing to make a Cup of Good TBA-^-and really is so, WHEN STOU GET IT AT | ' McGO WAN'S. ,_ 3/- Tea at McGowan's B.
