NOTICES FOR THE TEA DRINK
Frs.

Don't take your tea too hot, or IT
will scorch your stomach.
Don't take YOU tea iced: nothing is
worse than an iced drink upon a tired
stomach.
Don't take your tea at a regular hour
every day as though it were a meal. If
you want the English complexion.
Take a certain quantity; the English
rule of two cups is good, but three will
do no harm il the cups are small and
you are very tired.
Sip your tea, or, as the ~Vegetarians
say, "eat" IL. DON swallow 1t whole
or in great gulps; it must be masti-
Gated If it is going TO do your system
any good.
Make your tea a pale amber in color,
the paler the better.
Take cream with your tea If you are
very tired; otherwise take lemon with
it. Lemon and tea act as ii great COM
plexion clearer. A Glove helps to steady
the nerves.
Learn to make q tea bracer. 1t takes
a slice of lemon, a cherry, a dash of
rum and some weak and very hot tea.
Remember that tea is fine for the
complexion. The woman who drinks
enough weak hot tea lee not worry
about drinking hot water. The tea
clears the skin in a miraculous way.

DON'T sTooP.

Arrange your work so that you don't
stoop over. Get a washing machine, a
bread mixer, and any other labor sav-
ing device that makes your work easy
and %effectual. A carpet sweeper and
q supply Of mops will keep your house
so clean that the regular s~weepings
need o occur oftener than once a
fortnight in most of the rooms. Look
for the pleasantness and cultivate the
habit of seeing the funny side of
things. Learn to laugh. A good
laugh saves doctors bills. Singing
makes de load light" the old darby
said, and he was right. Learn to greet
your friends with a smile. Everyone
has troubles; but the man or woman
worth while bears their burden on
thelr shoulders. 1t is only the
weakling that complains and tries to
shift her trouble on TO Others.
