How to Make a Good Gup of Tea. 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 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 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 tarthenwure teapot being slower in its action upon the herb admits .of a better Tea being poured out at last.' Then the water must not only huve jußt boiled, but be in the very uct of boiling at the time it is poured . ' ovtr tiho leaves, or no good Tea can ba icadc. If the water has stopped or gone off the boil one half minute, Hip Tea will be weak and tasteless, ' for only-water really at the boiling -point will extract the qualities of the Tea, uud'it should stand fcomfifteen - to twenty minutes before pouring out. ' The teupot should be thoroughjy dry and .warm before putlint; the T>'a in. In touring the boiling wotcr on to the Ten it is'bept only to hull fill the teapot, aud in tcr>. minutes to odd the remainder, liy ihis process t!io heat is kept up. When the infusion has once been made it is useless to add any more Tea to that already in tho teapot. If more be required, it is better to use a second teapot, jug, or large cup, taking care to cover closely, and pluce in the oven till fully infused, tlien it may be added to that iilready in the teapot. It seems an easy thing to make a Cup of Good Tea—and really is so, T YOU GET IT AT McGOWAN'S. 3/- Tea at McGowan's, / ■'ROCER-a' and Bulers' Bags and Wr*l \J ping Pnpers printed »"■• cheap rat.o-i n the Bvairrsci Stau Office.
