TO MAKE A CUP OF TEA.
There's Only One Right Way, Says a
Scientist, and Here 1t Is.

There is only one way to make
tea that is fit to drink, no matter
whether the leaf used be from In
dia, China or Japan or whether it
be black, green, oolong or mixed.
A writer in an English scientific
magazine describes it exactly as fol-
lows:
'The tea drunk should be an in
fusion in the proper sense Of the
word, and the leaves should be
neither stewed nor boiled, as so Of
ten happens. The character Of the
water is very important for really
delicious brew. The Chinese say
that the best water for making tea
with is that from Il running stream,
ind the worst is well water. This
means that the water should be well
aerated, like that from a running
stream. If the water is boiled for a
long time all the dissolved gases are
driven off and the water is made
flat, like the well water which the
Chinese condemn. Therefore the
water used should be just freshly
come to the boil. If the water used
be flat to begin with it should first
be poured backward and forward
into jug from height in thin
stream, for so it picks up some of
the air on its way.
"The water should not be too
hard, and if only hard water is OBJ
tainable pinch of baking soda may
be added to the teapot.
'Tea tasters employ smaller
proportion of tea than is indicated
by the ordinary domestic rule. This
rule is a teaspoonful of the leaves
for each cup and an extra one for
the pot). Of course the teapot
should be thoroughly heated as a
preliminary to making the infusion,
for otherwise the water poured into
it is lowered below boiling point,
and it is only at boiling point that
some of the volatile constituents
of the leaf, to which the beverage
owes its aroma, can be properly ex-
tracted.
"The infusion should not last
longer than four minutes. After
this too much fannie acid is ex-
tracted, as well as bitter substances
which we are better without. Also,
if the infusion be prolonged, it |
drives away the delicious volatile oil |
to which much of the fragrance of |
made tea is due. After
infusion the fluid should be poured |
INTO another hot teapot. No second
Drew should ever be made, for a
single infusion is enough to remove
rom the leaves everything that is
worth having. '
"Tea thus made is delicious. BY
means of its water, its heat and its
stimulants all three
1T is refreshing. 1t cannot injure
and it may be questioned
there is any necessity to
orbid its use by any one but the
ictim of insomnia"

THE COLLEGE GIRL.
Hints For Her Health, Both Mental
and Physical.

ana PHYSICAL.
College life, with it's hard tasks, its
many pleasures, its incessant ''busy-
ness" makes many demands upon the
vitality of those living it. The robust
girl would most asSuredly come
| through unscathed, but. the girl who is
little weak, the girl not quite of av-
erage physique, would not be able to
| find in athletics just the help she need
ed and would, indeed, harm herself by
them if she persisted in engaging in
them to any marked extent
The old fashioned term of derision
for woman with erudition was that
of 'bluestOcEing." Such a learned
female was rarity in those days,
when j was deemed that a woman
suffered Il loss by education, became
n creature of the head rather than Of
the heart. Times have changed with
vengeance, and ''bluestockingS' ex-
list in great numbers, and there is moth
ing abnormal about them at that. nor
are they lacking in the softer qualities
so dear to the sentimental heart of
mankind. Womanhood has gained,
not lost, by education, it goes without
saying, and the most cultured one of
them all is not above that natural and
right desire TO look her best under all
circumstances
Beauty for the college woman is
just as much to be desired as for the
one not so well favored by fortune as
to go to college, and the girl who val
ues her rosy cheeks and bright eyes
naturally does not enjoy the prospect
of losing them, and she may we'll wish
counsel to help her to that end and
may well resolve to remember such in
struction.
Her cue might be taken from the
one girl spoken of above, so that she
shall guard against excessive activity,
whether mental or physical, that she
will surely be wise in taking care of
her digestion, so as to retain her ap-
petite as well as her ability TO assimi-
late that food and shall surely avoid
that continuous and firing effort to
keep up" with everything upon the
program. which is so useless an exer-
ton.
Exercise up to but not much beyond
the point of fatigue will be stimulant
and not a depressant. This refers to
the average thin, nervous type of girl
so often found in America. The heavy |
or full nourished, large boned woman,
possessed of abundant horsepower. if |
this term is allowable, may. to be sure,

the stomachs of the sheep. The lambs
become infested by eating grass on

1t is recommended therefore. that the
lambs be placed on pastures that have

Why q Whip ,"Cracks.r

In a lecture ON Mechanics In the
Home" delivered to boys at the Royal
institution, in London, Professor C. V.
Boys tried to explain why a whip
cracks. The Scientific American re-
marks that his explanation was only
tentative, and the greatest authorities
on dynamics have been at loss to
give the reason. Briefly, it has to do
with the fact that, owing to the ac-
ton Of centrifugal and other forces,
the speed at which the whip travels
through the air is greater and greater
throughout the length of its lash and

SUBMERGING A SUBMARINE.
1t Takes Five Minutes For the Best of
Them to Get Under.

Them to Get Under.
Submarines. are not easy to handle
and it takes considerable skill and
daring to navigate them successfully
Many people have the idea that as soon
as a submarine sees an enemy, the
officer in command gives sharp order,
and almost before it has left his lips
the submarine is diving beneath the
waves
As matter of fact the very latest
submarines take a clear five minutes
before they can become submerged.
Many of the older submarines took ten
minutes to a quarter of an hour to
sink.
The reason that a submarine cannot
dive quickly, like fish. is because the
water which must be let into her tanks
to. make her heavy enough to sink,
must be Let in comparatively slowly.
If it were let in with a rush the
chances are the vessel would not go
down on an even keel, but would heel
over and be in great danger of dis
aster. If water, too, were let in too
quickly there is a danger of letting in
too much and in that case the sub
marine would sink like a stone to the
bottom of the sea.
The depth at which a submarine
travels under the sea is regulated by
horizontal rudders. The water that is
let in the ballast tanks is, just sufii

Accomplished While lie Maps if His
Mother Systemizes Her Work and
Plans.
The woman with young children must
put the children and herself before the
house. for this is a case where house
keeping becomes secondary to the
health of the baby and the strength
of the mother. Even if she does not
like it standards must be lowered by
the young mother who must take care
CT both children and a house unaided
A tidy, well kept house is a joy and
an ideal, but it is an impossible real
ization by the mother of the baby who
has no other help unless she is willing
to sacrifice herself unwisely.
If the baby is healthy much can be
accomplished in it's two hour maps.
During it's morning sleep the bedrooms
may be quickly Strengthened, living
rooms made presentable and some lit
tie work done in the kitchen. Indeed,
one of the wisest things to do while
the baby sleeps is any special cooking
which requires close attention. 1t is
almost impossible to prepare food well
while baby is crying and fretful, as
cooking needs concentration and quiet.
1t is therefore better to prepare u des-
sert while baby is asleep and to do his
washing, as necessary, the sweeping
or other tasks which can be interrupt
ed while he is awake. The broom will
not scOrch as you lay it down to pick
up the baby for a moment, but the
rice pudding will.
If the baby takes another afternoon
nap it is the better part of sense to
sleep or at least lie down during the
baby's nap. Certainly there should be
some half hour in the day at least
when the mother can have quiet and
relaxation, and it is not at all indolent
to neglect some securing and polishing
in order to get rest and much needed
relaxation.
In the house where there is q baby
furnishings should be the simplest ana
housewOrk thus reduced to minimum,
given to the baby. One reason, per-
haps, why many modern young mar
ried women of humble circumstances
are averse to motherhood is that they
cannot reconcile a baby and the disor-
der which baby brings in its trail.
They like their well kept little home
with its fern dish exactly in the cen
ter of the embroidered dolly on the
dining room'table, ana they cannot see
how they are able to do justice, as they
would like, to both home and the baby.
True, woman cannot serve two mas
