Fauorite Chinese Dish

One Of the forms of eggs of which
the Chinese people are very fond is
the sO-called tea eggs" To prepare
these, fresh hens eggs are hard
boiled, the shells cracked and the egg
then cooked for hours in a mixture Of
tea infusion, salt, spice and soy bean
sauce. When the price of eggs is low,
tea eggs" are often prepared and
kept warm on the stove so that any
member of the family may help him
self to them as the Americans do candy
and nuts Hens eggs are usually very
cheap. An ordinary days diet for
family easily contains a half-dOzen
eggs or more. Even poor people who
keep their own hens use eggs freely.
Slaves and servants, however, are
usually given only a few, for vege
tables are usually cheap, and eggs re-
garded as more Observation-Disclosures
