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 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 action upon'the herb admits of a better Tea losing 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 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 dryj and warm before patting the Tea in. In roaring 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 is 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 added 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 McGO WAN'S. 3/- Tea at McGowan's.
