In preparing tea, the water to be used
should never be poured directly from the
kitchen kettle into the urn 1t should be
cold, fresh water, brought absolutely to
the boiling point. The tea used will, OF
course, differ according to taste, but none is
better for the purpose than tho best
English breakfast. The leaves must be
placed in the pot in the proportion of q
heaping teaspoonful to each person Upon
these leaves pour a small quantity of boil
Ing water; never use all ofthe latter needed
at once, as sudden rush viii certainly
drown" the tea.
Now pull the coy over the teapot and
allow the contents to draw few moments,
when you will have the best infusion pos.
sible; repeat this process as many times as
needed; after using the first potful and
filing once more with boiling water the
tea loses its strength and flavor Boiled

never be stepped upon the stove. 1t will
not often be necessary to strain where
these directions are followed, but the sud

The oountrx,s Danger.

The Northern Democrats in Con-
gress have issued a strong circular to
the people of the North protesting
against the infamous election bill
which the Reed conspirators are
about to railroad through Congress,
also appealing to the people for the
sake OF peace and the welfare of the
country, irrespective of party, to
hold meetings and protest against it
in every form possible, urging the
danger of unsettling business OF
every kind and involving the ooun-
try in turmoil and ruin. They say :
This bill is a purely partisan meas.
ure, intended, primarily, to control
the elections for Congress and Presi-
dental electors in all the States, and
to intimidate, hound, Obstruct and
harrass by political prosecutions in
unfriendly hands, the adverse ma
jorities in the cities of the North. To
this end, it gives to the control OF
the Chief Supervisor of Elections q
body of Federal police spies, who are
authorized to make domiciliary Wis
its, superintend the naturalization OF
foreign-born citizens, place the citi-
zen under strict scrutiny of these I'M
principled federal detectives.
To carry on this scheme of imperi-
al government, millions of dollars
will be taxed from our people, and
the judiciary of the Uuited States
prOstituted to the basest partisanship
In the management of elections.
A rousing meeting has been called
in New York to protest. Other places
will also hold public meetings. The
conspirators are not happy over the
situation.
