How TO MAKE TEA PRoPERLY.-The prop
er way 70 make cup OF good tea is a mat
ter Of some importance. The plan which
have practised for these twlve months is
this: The pot is at once filed up with boil
ing water, then the tea Is put into the pot,
and is allowed to stand for tive minutes be-
fore il is used; the leaves gradually sink 10
the bottom; the result is the tea leaves are
not scaded, as they are when boiling water
is poured over them, and you will &c, all the
true flavor Of the tea. In truth, much less
tea is required in this way than under the
old and common practice.
