A Cnn of Tea

It seems u simple thing enough, yet of the millions who use this refresh ing and agreeable beverage u very small proportion understand how to prepare it. But if not properly made tea is deprived of great deal of its value and sometimes rendered ahso lutely injurious. The water to be used should boil, and it should be poured on the tea immediately 1t boils if allowed to over-boil tho peculiar property of boiling wa.er which acts upon tea evaporates and eventually disappears. Tea should not bc de- coction, but an infusion. II allowed to stew it becomes little better thar decoction of jamie acid Tea that is overdrawn is hurtful to the ncrves and to the digestion. As to the pre-. else number of minutes that should be devoted to the process os drawing some people will say five minutes, some seven, some will go as far as len. but our experience Is in favor Of six this sutilces to bring out the flavor. quality and strength. Just as much tea as is wanted should be made nc more. Make fresh tea us often as II is required. The replcnishing of the tea pot with fresh hot water is very objectionable. As the thorough heat. ing of tho receptacle is of the first i'm. portance, the tea pot should be made thoroughly hot before the tea Is pn' into is. The earjhcnware teapot l. preferred 10 all others by many con. noisseurs, and 1t is suporfiuous to say that whatever utensil is used for ihi, purpose should be immediately clean
 Tea is an extremely delicate article. Its susceptibility to the oders of com. modiiics near ii is source of danger and deterioration. as 1t readily takes up the smell Of coffee, cocoa, spices, cheese, bacon, or other articles q pronounced odor. The complaint. sometimes made about tea would prob ably not arise if always kept in plaecs free from such con,agion. Tea should be stored in n warm dry place. un. necessary exposure to the air shouit be avoided. Even when securely packed in the lealed chests in whici 1t arrives in England, the change iron the glowing heat of eastern skies ts the damp and humid atmosphere Q this climate deprives tea of much Q. its beautiful fragrance. Tea of nncl better quality than is generally dis pensed at our railway stations and re freshment rooms can be bought ut 8 per pound. A pound Of tea would make i2s cups. This is considerably less than a farthing per cup Tot may well ask why Is if that VIC shouls be still charged i'd. and Cd. 'sfor u 1t tie hot milk and water slightl, favored with undesirable tannin.

The Silkworm's Rival.

We are accustomed to consider sill solely as the product of the wei kA,wn silkworm, which feeds upoi mulberry leaves, and has been s, widely domestieatod in Europe. an, even to some slight extent in thi, country. But the truth k that ther, are many other varieties of caterpilla which furnish the same product. an, that in India alone fifty ditferen kinds Of silk-bearing insects ar, known. The most important oi these the ttssur moth. feeds upon more thai thirty different species of plants. ans the caterpillar weavcs cocoon ahon four times the size of that of the mul berry silkworm. Great attention il paid to the roaring of the tussur, an, various religious ceremonies arc em ployed In caring for it. The larg, brown moth, which has four trans parent eyes upon the wings, is yoner ated. and only people of a certail caste arc permitted 10 approach il. l has been domesticatcd in India 10 thousands of years, while tho cocoon of all the other species arc collecie, wild from tho jungle. One of thes, feeds on tho castor oil plant and spin white cocoon. Ia China also th, silk from several varieties of worm is used; and in Japan, besides th' ailanthus catorpiller. there Is n specie, which until lately was reserved foi the exclusive use Of the Mikado. tn, exportation of the eggs being al otfenso punishable with death Soin' of them. however. have been carries to France, where an attempt. whicl promises to be successful, Is maxim, to cultivate this species.

A Professors Mistake.

For tho foreigner who attempts en- ,ering society in America, the way is scset with many obstacles, especially the choice of proper words to ex- press the meaning to be conveyed. Professor Mendel had been in this country but few weeks when it fell to hls good fortune to he invited to one of the first homes of Philadelphia, prominent attraction of which was several dark haired, black-eyed, and and withal very stylish daughters. X most delightful evening was passed n the society of the ladies, and in the snioyment of q bountiful lunch pre- pared in honor of the distinguished visitor
 At the proper hour the professor announced that the time had ar rived for his departure, and in his cave taking, in his most gallant manner, he thanked the hostess for the very pleasurable evening he had passed in her "homely homo" and in the company oi her "homcly daugh- ters.v The coolness that existed be- tween the professor and his gener- ous hostess and her daughters was never fully dispeled until he ex- plained that in Germany "homely' signited "hospitable," and certainly none could have been more hespita' ble than she and her hospitablt daughters.

"Cet Back in de Ribber.'

The prevailing high waters and the danger of q sweeping flood calls to mind u humorous incident of the great flood of 1882, which is good enough to repeat. A certain boat coming up the Mississippi lost her way, and bumped up against frame house. She hadn't more than touch ed it be ore an old darkey rammed his head up through n hole in the roof where the chimney first came out, and yelled at the captain on the boat. "Whar de hell is you gwine wid dat boat? Can't you see nuitin2 Fust thing yer knows yer gwine to turn this house oher, and spill de ole woman an de ehil'en out in ,le flood an drown em.

 aWell, here it is" he said, as he put n bill in her hand.

Not a Sign of Poverty.

From the Cleavland Leader.
 The mortgages of tine newer states of the West, such as Nebraska, are not sign oftrouble or loss ofground. The country wns filled up in tho first place by men of little or no capital. They obtained their land rom the government, and this they mortgaged for the snke of making the soil more productive. sheitering crops. etc. The money raised hy pledging the raw prniries of the West was simply invested in substantial Improvements worth, IS u rule, nll they cost.

Raided tho Jail for Whisky.

The sheriff of Pearson county, $. c, never had a moro thrilling and doubtless unique experience than that of Friday night last. \ large party Of completely masked men rode up to the jail in the little town oi Roxboro, knocked nt the sheriff { door, and when hc opened it rushed in and compelled him to surrender the keys. He expected, of course, they were after prisoners to lynch them. but was astonished when they went to n cell in which the deputy revenue collector had placed qnan. tity ofiliicit whisky for safe keeping After they had recapturcl the whisky they gravely shook hands with the sheriff, loaded the stun on wagon, and, forming in regular marching order, left town as quietly as they had entered it.
