REQUIRES CARE IN MAKING
Tea, to Be at Its Best, Must Be Pre-
pared Under Exactly the Proper
Conditions

There is practically no nutriment in
tea, though there are small amounts
Of mineral salts. The principal ingredi-
ents are caffein. which stimulates the
nerves; volatile oils, which give the
flavor, and fannie acid, which retards
the digestion
The japanese have made q religious
and aesthetic ceremonial Of tea-drink-
Ing. and. like the mineral waters whose
efficiency is found to depend largely
on the change and rest accompanying
their drinking. the afternoon tea has
its psychological as well as Its physi-
illogical reasons for the pleasant re-
suits produced
Like all beverages which refresh by
stimulating. tea should be used with
great discretion.
Less tea is used to the cup than In
the case Of coffee-One-half to one tea
spoonful as compared to one table
spoonful. A mild cup of tea well. made
will not hurt healthy person, and. al
though the stimulating principle is the
same, tea does not seem to have so d.
rect or so pronounced an effect on the
central nervous system as does coffee.
Children, people with gastric troubles
or those who are nervous should not
drink tea.
Green tea contains much more tan
mic acid than black tea. Be sure IL
does not boil or stand ON the leaves II
you use 1t.
Hard or stale water does not make
good tea. 1t should be freshly drawn
and freshly boiled.
Boiling any tea is a crime. The caf-
fein Is readily soluble and is quickly
obtained In solution. Boiling or long
standing on til leaves only results In
more Of the Injurious tannic acid be-
ing extracted and spells the flavor as
well as making the beverage more
harmful.

"OLD SHACK'S" POSER

Representative Warren Worth
Bailey Of JOhnstown, Pa, is a person
with definite views about things. When
he favOrs or opposes proposition he
does so with much earnestness and in
tenseness. For example, he has long
been strongly in favor of an adoption
Of Henry Georges single tax ideas, and
is equally strong in his opposition to
the presidents program for naval and
military preparedness.
One night Bailey sat in the lobby
Of the hotel where he lives in WASH
ington talking gravely about the good
things in store for this nation Just as
soon as single tax comes to be gener-
ally applied throughout the country.
Congressman Dorsey w. Shackle-
ford of Missouri was sitting close by.

Friends of Billy Sunday, the re-

Mr.. Sunday was on the Trenton
train one day when a man near him
began to drink out of bottle. Noisy

drinks became quite unbearable. The
revivalist launched Mt him an eloquent
sermon on intemperance.
At the sermons end the drinker
looked at Mr.. Sunday steadily and

CLAPP LIKES DAY TRAVEL

Although he does a good deal Of
travelling over the country, Senator
Moses e. Clapp Of Minnesota rarely
travels at night. This is not due to
any prejudice against sleeping in one

ply because he likes to do so. Not long
ago he and younger man had to go
on a trip of IA hours or more, and the
other man naturally proposed that
they go on q night train.
"Why do you want to go at night?"
asked Clapp, as If the idea of night
travel was a brand new wrinkle.

the man. "One has to sleep anyhow.
Otherwise one wastes an entire day."
"Waste a day." exclaimed Clapp.

Chicago, Feb 7.-Compulsory sickness
insurance administered by the federal gov
eminent was advocated here tonight before
the Federation of State Medical Boards of
secretary of the New York State Board.
DR.. Huffman proposed plan under which
he said all reputable physicians would re-
ceive an assured income and the chief in
centives to quackery would be eliminated.
The plan contemplated a tax of 50 a
wear on all wage earners whose income is
less than $1,000. He estimates that there
are $4,000 900 such persons in the United
States. Each would have the privilege Of
selecting his own doctor, but no physician
would be allowed to carry more than 1000
names.
This would mean $4,000 year for treat
ing those that become sick or disabled and
statistics show that not more than so of
these would ever be sick at the same
time" said Dr. Huffman.
Profession III Paid

how miserably underpaid the medical pro-
fession is There are 127, 900 active prac-
titioners in the country and their incomes
