SOCIETY.

IN England, Wnere they make more
ado about tea than in any other coun-
try, the teapot with a steamer is just
now preferred to the silver tea ball.
The principle of the two is exactly
the same. All the best Chinese teapots
have their strainer, which is Of porce-
lain. and fits into the mouth of the tea
pot like small cup. The porcelain is
better than any metal, since even silver
corrodes slightly under the action Of
the powerful fannie acid of the tea. The
leaves are put into the strainer and
the boiling water poured over them.
Many original housewives have this
strainer, and careless houS awives dis
card il, preferring to make tea in the
bottom OF the pot in the everyday
fashion. When tea stands in the pot
for any length of time it draws out the
fannie acid, giving the acid flavor so
disagreeable to conroisseurs. There are
many people, however, who have ac-
CURED a taste for fannie acid, just as
the Eskimo likes train oil and tallcW
candles. and SO prefer their tea boiled
a great advantage of the teapot with
the strainer is the care with which it
may be empted. leaving no temptation
