ounce each OF spirits turpentine. swee
oil, and aqua ammonia mixed, to th'
whole of the throat, and to the breas
bone, every four hours, keeping hanne
to the part.

a dream which made the wife of julius
Caesar so anxious that he should not so

of March had he complied with her en-
treaties, he might have escaped the dag

How THE CHINESE MAKE TEA.-Among
the newspaper articles floating around
the country and turning up periodically
is one commences thus 1.-The Chi
nese place the tea in cup, pour boil
ing water upon it, and drink the infu-
sion off the leaves" Now this Is Who'll
ly erroneous. The Chinese method IS
lar superior to that commonly followed
in the United States and Europe for
drawing tea They take no sugar
or milk in their tea, and never boil the
leaves, thereby dissipating all the deli
cate aroma, as we do. They have a
small basket, lined with wooden feit, from
en- inch to two inches in thickness, and
with cover padded in the same man
ner. Into this teapot OF common
China porcelain is fitted tightly. When
tea is to be drawn, they put the dry
leaves into the porcelain tea OF, pour
boiling water upon them, put on the lid,
and close the felt-lined cover OF the
basket tightly down upon it. The felt
retains the heat for from six to twelve
hours, and at any time during the day
YOU can pour cup of tea, scaldin9 hot,
fresh, clear and deliciously aromatic,
from the nose of the tea-kettle, which
protrudes from a hole through the side
of the basket. FUELS thus economical,
and the tea is infinitely better thfn can
be produced from the same grade Of
leaves by any other process. This tea
pot and basket can be procured at any
first-class Chinese store, aud u single
trial will satisfy the most skeptical that
our housewives are far behind the semi
barbarians of the Orient in this branch
of their business. We do little better
on coffee but still, as a rule, We are far
behind the natives of coffee producing
countries in preparing it for the table;
and chocolate, the most delicate and
noulishing of all the bibHlous luyuries
of the table, we utterly ruin.-CaH.
