Olden Tea Tahla Etiauctte.

Tea table etiquette was somewhat
complicated In the days OF that hard
ened and shameless tea drinker." DR.
Johnson, when many people thought
nothing of drinking ten or twelve cups
at a sitting. 1t was considered proper
for the cups aud saucers OF a party of
tea drinkers to he all passed up to the
hostess in one batch when replenish,
ment was considered necessary, and In
order that each person might be sure
of getting back the right cup the tea
spoons were numbered. When the
cups were passed up those who did
not require any more were supposed Ia
place the spoon In the cup. And this
writer remembers a very ancient dame
teaching small boy to place his spoon
In his cup after the first cup had been
emptied. He wondered for the rea.
son. Now he knows that ten was
once very expensive. and little boys
were not expected TO ask against.
