'■-■ ■ _ \ How to Make a Good Cup of Tea. A GOOD CUP of TEA is really a scientific preparation.. Some prefer all black Tea, others a mixture of green. The most whole* some 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 infusion of excellent strength may ' be obtained. The Tea should bo 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^ leafing none for the last brewing; an' earthenware teapot being slower in its action upon the herb"admits of a better Tea being poured out at last. Then the water must not qvlj , have just boiled, but be in the- rery . 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 , % to twenty minutes before pouring out. The teapot should be thoroughly dry and warm before patting the Tea in. In touring 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 t\ie heat is kept up."- , When the infusion has once besn made it ia useless to add any mor» Tea to that already in the teapot. If more be required, it is bettor 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 ndded to that already in the teapot. It seems an easy thing to make a ' Cup of Good Tea —and really is so, WHEN STOU GET IT AT McGOWAN'S. 3/- Tea at McGowan's. B.
