in any case.
While to your real tea drinker tea is
tea and no complication of the flavor is
desired, many like to vary the customary
lemon of the Russian tea with tiny
wedge-shaped pieces Of orange or grape
fruit, stuck with cloves, cubes of dried
pineapple busted with cinnamon, or Il
dried mint leaf and creme de menthe
cherry with the slice of lemon.
The simple, old-fashioned way of
bringing fresh drawn water to a quick
boil and pouring it over the leaves Zone
level teaspoonful to the cup and one for
the pot) in a heated pot, which is then
covered with "cosey" and left to steep
for three to five minutes, is all right if
one pours off the tea at once. But if
left standing on the leaves the second
cup will contain too much tannin for
either the palate's pleasure or the stom-
ach's safety.
Herein lies the advantage Of the spe-
cial devices for making tea shown in the
illustration. The London Tea Bob saves
the teamakcr all responsibility and
trouble by bobbng up automatically
when the tea has stepped for five min
utes. This is no magic, but is brought
about by q "timc cup" in the top of the
teapot, into which the boiling water is
poured. The cup rests in a deeper per-
forated receptacle in which the tea is
held. About the top Of the time cup arc
large perforations through which the
water passes downward through the tea.

Kinds of Tea and Who
Drinks Them

The greatest amount Of tea consumed
outside of the Oriental countries is
drunk in Australia, where If IS esti-
mated at from nine and a haf to ten
pounds year for each person. Eng
land follows with seven pounds a Der
son, and Russia comes next, with two
and half pounds. The consumptiou ii
America is only about seven-eighth~ Of
a pound for each person. Tiie low
amount is attributed partly to the fact
that millions of people of foreign birth
in the United States have not only never
tasted tea but have never even heard
of it.
AS to the various kinds of teas, they
are as numerous as the kinds of wine
or brands of tobacco, and their choice
is merely matter of individual taste.
Three countries grow tea for the export
trade, China, Japan and India, which,
of course, includes the island of Ceylon.

sliced oranges; sweeten to taste. Chill

into tall, thin glasses, half filled with
cracked ice.

Even Doctors Seem to
Agree on Tea Drinking

Physicians agree-that is to say, those
whom I have consulted on the subject
agree-that tea, if properly made, is one
of the most harmless of beverages.
There has always been popular idea
afioat that tea tends to make one ner-
vous, as it contains caffein (theine), as
does coffee; but physicians point to the
Oriental races and to the English people,
all of whom are far less nervous than
Americans, to dsprove this theory. The
tannin in tea is, as we all know, the
Objectionable ingredient from the stom-
achs point Of view, but it is reduced to
a minimum if the tea is properly brewed.
The boiling water should be poured over
the tea leaves and allowed to stand three
to five minutes at the most before it is
drunk
Tea stimulates the respiratory organs
and through these quickly reacts on the
entire system. In point of fact the

bail is easily lifted by the knob and held
with the chain in the space provided for
it in the cover of the teapot.
Too much stress cannot be laid on the
Importance of making iced tea just as
carefully as though it were to be served
hot. It should be strained after the con-
stitutional four minutes of sleeping,
cooled, and placed in the ice chest until
ready for serving, unless perchance it is
made fresh and poured hot over the ice
cubes in the glasses, the best way of all,
but one that may be prohibited by the
threatened ice shortage. If a quantity of
iced tea is to be made, sliced lemon
added when the tea is hot and allowed
to stand until served will give zest
that two or three lemons will not impart

Orange Pekoe is undeniably the most

tea at the present time, possibly because
of its attractive name. One hears all
sorts of stories as to the derivation Of
the name, the most common being that
the tea leaves are dried on orange peel,
which gives it a distinctly orange flavor;
another is that it is mixed with dried
orange flowers. The truth is that orange
pekoe tea pronounced pcck-o, Blythe
by Is made from the tiny leaves at the
top of the stalk, which have a little yell
low tip.
Another story is current as to the rca-
son that some tea is green. Many peo-
pie refuse to buy green tea because they
believe that it gets its color from being
dried on copper, which corrodes with
the moisture and colors the leaves. This
is no longer true. All tea, both black
and green, is dried on bamboo trays, and
none is now colored by artificial means,
though Prussian blue was used in tho
days before the pure food law. Green tea
is quickly dried, is not fermented, and
contains a little more tannin than the
black teas, which are fermented during
the longer drying process, in which the
tea is spread out in thicker ayers.

sert that the very best tea in the world
is that which comes from the Darjeeling
Islands, and these same gentlemen are
responsible for the information that the
most discriminating tea buyers in the
world outside the Orient are the Irish.

Tea began it's career as Il medicine
and grew into beverage. 1t is a native
Of Southern China and was used in that
country as early as the eighth century.
1t became the national drink of Japan
in the fifteenth century. The first tea
was carried to Europe by the ships of
the Dutch West Indies Company in 1910.
1t was known in France in 1886 and.
reached Russia in 1888. England well
coined it in 1850 and spoke of it as chat

shillings pound in those days, and
that, of course, restricted it's use to the

tons as great delicacy.
With the increase of shipping facili-
ties, however, the price soon became re-
duced, and it was introduced into the
London coffee houses, where it contend
ed successfully with coffee for popu-
larity, and the habitues of these resorts,
wits like Addison and Steele and John
son, beguiled the long winter evenings
over a "dish of tea" Thus, tea soon
became a necessity of life, taxable
matter, and there is no need to recall to
the mind of any American the fact that
Colonial America suffered all sorts of

Tea at the Peace Conference
For "Tired Brains"

In the first place, it may interest our
tea scoffers to learn that recent dis
patches from the peace conference in
form us of the fact that tea has become
the popular drink of the delegates of
all the nations. 1t appears that wines
of rare vintage, together with all sorts
of other alcoholic beverages, were pro-
vided for their refreshment and stimula-
ton, but after the first few weeks the
sound of the popping cork and the fizz
of the syphon were succeeded by the
hum of the homely teakettle. 1t was
the English delegates who set the fash
ion, for from long usage the English
people, both men and women, have come
to appreciate the value of cup of tea
Only those who have lived in ENGLAND
can realize the part which tea plays in
the lives of the English people, or how
as five o'clock tea," but which in re-
atty is served in England at 4 o'clock.

the Duke of York's Theatre describing
to me one evening the trip which he
had taken to Paris for the celebrated
one nights performance of "Peter Pan"
He was big, husky Englishman, over
6 feet tail, hero Of the Boer' War,
with row of decorations on his coat
that rivalled any of those of our return
