LIDKMKY TEA AND COFFEE. "Nothing regulates a man's temper and humor for the clay more than does a good breakfast, and a cup of good coffee constitutes a good breakfast." HINTS ON TEA MAKING. First, the water in which the leaf is used should be poured on the tea the moment it boils. Of all teapots, the little brown earthenware teapot is the very best for the purpose. The teapot must be thoroughly hot before tea is put into it. The connoisseur will half fill it with hot water, put on the lid, and set it on the heating stove or range until only the handle can be touched with impunity from heat. By following this plan, less tea is required than if the thorough heating of the teapot has been neglected. About 8 minutes are required for the infusion of black tea and about 5 minutes for green. GOOD COFFEE. One pint of coffee, enough cold water to wet the grounds, 1 gallon boiling water; boil 3 minutes; let stand where it will keep hot for 15 minutes, then drain and it is ready to serve. FRENCH DRIP COFFEE "CAFE NOIR." In making coffee use fresh water as soon as it boils. Do not let it boil and steam until the pure water is all evaporated. For 1 ordinary cup take 2 tablespoonfuls of finely pulverized coffee, which press down slightly in the strainer, then pour on the boiling hot water, letting it drip for about 8 minutes. When the water is all filtered through, you have "Cafe Noir," a very strong black coffee.
