A GOOD CUP of TEA is really a scientific preparation. Some prefer all black Tea, others a mixture of green. The most wholesome is that made from black aloncj." and if one teaspoonful of tea be allowed for-each person besides an exlra one for the teapot, t\n infusion of excellent strength may be obtained. The Toa should be made in a bright metal teapot if ' possible, because bright substances retain the heat longer than rough ones ; a metal teapot extracts all the strength in the first infusion of Tea, leaving none for the last brewing, an earthenware' teapot being slower in its uction upon the herb admits of a better Tea being poured out at last. Then the water must not only have just boiled, but be in the very act of boiling at tho time it is poured over the lftuvce, or no good Ten can be made. If the water has slopped or gone off the boil one half minute, the" Tea will bo weak and tasteless, for only water really at the boiling , point will extract the qualities of tho Tea, and it should stand from fifteen to twenty minutes before pouring out. Tho teapot should bo thoroughly dry and warm before putting the Toa in. In Touring the boiling water on to tho Toa it is besfc only to half fill the teapot, and in ten minutes to udd the remainder. By this process the heat is kept up. When the infusion has onoo been made it is useless to add'any more Tea to that already in lho teapot. ' . If more bo required, it ia belter to uso a second teapot, jug, or largo cup, taking care to. cover closely, and . place in the oven till fully infused, then it may be added to that already in the teapot. It seems an easy thing to make.a Cup of Good Tsa—and really is so, 1 WHEN rOU GET IT AT j McGOWAN'S. - 3/- Tea at McGowan'si B.
