Extracts from a Letter

The blender of Tabard Inn Coffee has
sent us over from New York a good
sized bag of kannfa chat and writes US
as follows:
There is no doubt in my mind that
this chaff removing is going to have a
tremendous effect upon the sale of co.,
fee. A physician friend of mine tells me
that as tanuin is such a severe astrin-
gent tine removal Of it from the coffee
makes the coffee less constipating. An
infusion of this chaff made like tea
with a drop of tincture of iron forms
tannate Of iron, an excellent writing ink,
and 1t so happens that If ordinary coffee
is made In an old coffee pot, that Is
rusty. the coming together of the fan
min and the rust produces the same re-
suit
Some grocers who roast their own cof-
fee have intimated that they. too, re-
move the cllaff. They do remove the out
side chaff. which Is really the hull of
the coffee bean, but the tannfn is in the
kernel and this can only be removed in
the grinding and there is only one
grinding machine in the country which
is fitted for the purpose.

How TO Make a Pot of Tea

See that the teapot is hot. Rinse 1t
out with boiling water. Put n tea
spoonful of tea for every two cups de-
sired. Then pour sufficient boiling water
into the teapot. Let stand on warm part
of the stove or under a tea-cosey for five
minutes. Then serve with cream and
sugar. The water should be fresh
boiled and should be used when boiling.
Under no circumstances whatever should
the tea be allowed to boil; Tea which
has been made fifteen or twenty minutes
is unfit to drink. If the tea is too strong
dilute it with boiling water. If these
directions and cautions are observed
Tabard Inn Tea will make a beverage
good enough for king or queen. Buy
from your grocer. You can buy half
pound packages at 30 cents, so cents
