FIRST USE OF TEA.
An Ancient Legend Ascribes 1t to q
King of China.

An Ancient Legend Ascribes 1t to q
King of China.
By whom or when the use of tea for
drinking purposes was first discovered
is lost in antiquity. 1t is spoken of as
a famous herb in Chinese literature as
far back as 1000 years B. c., at which
time it's cultivation and classification
We're almost as thorough and complete
as they are today. One of the ancient
legends says that it's virtues were ac-
cidenta1ly learned by King Shen Nung
She, the Chinese monarch who is also
known as 1.-THE divine husbandman,' y
who, the record says, fourished forty
centuries ago. He was engaged in boil
ing water over a fire made of the
branches Of the tea plant and careless
ly allowed some of the leaves to fal;
into the pot.
The liquid which he expected to come
from the vessel simply as sterilized
water was niiraculously converted into
an elixir of life by the accidental ad-
dition of the tea leaves. Soon after ii
became highly esteemed in all the ori-
entail cities and was used as a royal
gift from the Chinese monarchs to the
potentates of southern and western
Asia.
This same King Shen Nung She not
only earned the title of respect by
which he was known through the dis
covery of the virtues of tea, but be-
cause of being the first to teach his
people how to make and use plows and
many other implements of husbandry.

There are people in Mexico City who

death knell as a general custom seems
to have been sounded since the city
adopted its modern enterprise and

Of the time when a person in the city
of Mexico would have been considered
almost crazy if he. neglec1ssi his after
noon rest, but gradually, with the ad-
vent of the railways, the street cars
and the electric lights, came the in
evitable sleeplessness which is one of
the most noticeable characteristics Of
modern civilization.
There are several supporters of the
siesta idea in this city who express re-
gret that the custom appears to be
passing away. These persons, who are
themselves devotees of the practice,
claim that it is a healthful and nerve
restoring habit and that if it were in
dulged in systematically by the people
of the United States and otlier pro-
gressive countries there would be few

A rice kettle to boil rice perfectly has
a n inner basket with a very close mesh.
The rice washed in several waters is
placed in the basket, and this is plunged
into boiling water, where the rice cooks
without danger of burning. When the
water boils away, the rice still cooks in
the steam.
All oak furniture looks nice if rubbed
with beeswax and ~turpentine. Put on

of magnesia to each quart of milk.
In cutting breakfast bacon, lay the
rind side down on the meat board, cut
down to the rind as many slices as are
needed. then cut it off in a block. Turn
edgeways and cut off one end, then the
other end, the inside, and last the rind,
and you will have trimmed all the slices
nearly as quickly as you could have
trimmed one.
