A GOOD CUP or 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 Tea should bo mode in a bright metal teapot if possible, because bright, substancs 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 theJierb admits of a better Tea bsing poured out at last. Then the water must not only have just boiled, but. be in the very aci of boiling at the time it is poured over the leaves, or no good- Tea can be made. If the water lv-s slopped 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 tenpot should be thoroughly dry and warm before putting the Tea in. In < oaring the boiling water on to the Te< it is best only to half fill the teapot, and in ton minutes to r.dd the remainder. By this process the heat is kept up. When tho infusion has o.nce been made it is useless to add any more Tea to that already in tho teapot. If-more be required, it is belter to use a second tea j-ot, jug, or larg.> cup, hiking care to cover closely, and place in tho oven till fully infused, then it may be added to that already in tho teapot. It seems an easy thing to mssko a Cup of Good Tea —and really is so, WHEN YOU GET IT AT McGO WAN'S. 3/- Tea at McCowan's.
