Learning the Game.

When that great plalnsman ]. ~
Hlckok, better known as wild BILL
came east on what he called "redhot
trail to learn something" he stopped
one Saturday night at hotel In Port
land, Me.
When he went to his room TO seek
rest, he found that the adjoining room
was occupied by company Of fashion.
able and rich young sports of Portland
who, II did not take him long to dis
cover, were playing an interesting
game of poker for high stakes. In vain
did he try to sleep. He could not do
so. and after an hour arose, dressed
himself and knocked on the door.
Instantly all was silent; but he In
quired politely that as they would not
let him sleep would they let him come
in and watch the game?
They did so and were impressed with
the appearance OF the man and asked
II he would join them.
"I will II you will post me; but you
know, I'm a tenderfoot east" he re.
piled.
They were willing to post him,
and. playing awkwardly, making blum
ders and asking questions, but SEEM
lngIy greatly interested, he continued
to play until daylight, when he put his
winnings, some $500, in his pocket.
81 thank you, gentlemen" he said,
"and I'm rather glad you would not let
me sleep. I'll be here until tomorrow,
so keep me awake some more"
But the players did not appear again.

DiIutIng Tea.

Few housekeepers remember, as they
should. that when II is necessary to
dilute strong tea II should be done with
water at the boiling point. The poor
flavor OF tea, made strong at first and
then reduced, such as is too often serv-
ed at receptions and lat homes" Is
usually caused by the addition OF hot,
not boiling, water to the first infusion.
A lesson in this matter may be had
from the Russians, who serve the most
delicious tea In the world, and who pre-
pare It first very strong, making II al
most an essence Of tea. This Is diluted
to the strength wished, with water
kept boiling in the samovar. This
water Is not allowed to boil and reboil,
but is renewed as needed. Freshly
boiled water is insisted upon by all
connoIsseurs I'm teamaking
