TEA AKD HOW TO 8EBVK IT.
(oiiampllon of Thin llfrrrs Hif
Idly Increasing Her.
Ten is n term which hns lind some
curious applications, ticcordlng to lead
ing authorities, siijs the New lork
World. A great variety of beverages
nnd decoctions made from herbs aua
plants unknown In China have been
called "tens," In imitation ot the genu
ine article. In early tea-tlrlnklng days,
when frngrnnt llohea was sold for
twelve to thirty shillings a pound, poor
folk, who could uot afford such a lux
ury, MKiefivorod to content theiuselves
Willi n drink from les expensive tea,
which wus regarded not only ns a pleas
ant but n particularly jholcsome bev
erage. Another popular drink was gin
ger ten. In revolutionary days In tms
country various substitutes for tea
were used. Some New Lnglnndcrs
drunk tea made from the leaves of
rib wort, strawberry plnnts, sage nnd
other herbs.
It Is snld that no Englishwoman is
happy without hor ten and thut Amer
icans are the great coffee drinkers, but
the consumption of tea is constantly
on tne. increase. All niieruoon tcu is
a pleasant way of entertaining one's
friends. An advantage Is that a larger
number of guests can be entertained
than is usually possible at a dinner
or luncheon. All teas nre similar, ns
the form of extending this hospitality
Is much the same everywhere. Souie
tTnu'S a collection of small tables is
used, distributed here nnd there about
one or two rooms, but ns n rule one
largo table Is most popular, and from
this the tea and refreshments are
served. This should be covered with
n spotless white linen cloth, prettily
decorated with flowers nud silver; a
tea service stands at one end nnd a
chocolate set at the other, ench pre
sided over by some friend of the host
ess. Sandwiches, cake, bonbons nud an .
lee nre sufficient complement A maid
should be In attendance to remove
stilled cups and plates.
LOVE AND MARRIAGE ABROAD.
Doy-and-Girl Frlcndnhlps ol A mer
lon Inknonn In Europe.
The European man thinks he knows
the American girl, but he judges ner
by the girls of his own country, aud
therefore entirely misunderstands tier,
says Everybody's. He cannot compre
hend the healthy unromantlc friend
ships that exist in America between
boys and girls, who see each other un
der all sorts of Informal circumstances
nnd yet need have no thought of love
or sentiment. He thinks the American
girl has had long experience in the
ways of men nnd that she is as well
versed In the manner of lovers as the
experienced mnrrled flirts of Tarlatan
and Roman society. Used to inerf she
Is, but not to the sort of men she
meets for tin first time nbrortd. She
is used to the typos of boy "that she
has known nil her life." She can fath
om what he thinks on pretty much any
subject, and whether he Is In love with
her or not is a matter thnt she can
decide without much danger of mistake.
Above nil, the American youth Is out
spoken nnd frank. He has no hidden
or ulterior motives'; he spends little
time In discussing what he thinks. He
likes best to show his muscle nnd his
skill In athletics, and the lntlmncy be
tween boys nud girls Is founded on
doing things together, riding, swim
ming, playing tennis or coasting and
skating; not on talking of Ideas.
Yet and this is very Important nnd
also very difficult to express: In the
minds of American young men love
nnd marriage nre synonymous. To the
HiUroiienu, jux: in tuu- aim timiiiut; io ,y i
marriage ; the two have not of ueees9l- A I
ty nny connection.
Pipe ami Cluar.
A person who sm.ikcs a cigar with
the label band on iy always a vulga
rian ; a person who displays two Inch
es nsh adhering to n cigar Is generally
ostentatious; a person who selects a
cigar because It Is sprinkled with light
spots Is nn Ignoramus who credits nny
peculiar report, nnd a person wbo
chews up the end of a cigar or a clga
rette Is more often thnn not of an . ,
Irascible or peevish nature. So sayar
the London Tribune, which adds:
Smoking is nlso a great test of
natural courtesy In any Individual.
One can trace selfishness, boorlshness,
self-assertlveness, timidity or good .
temper In a smoker's demeanor In any
mixed company. Judging uion the
example of Mr. Kipling, It hns been
asserted that the man who knocks his
pipe ashes out behind the parlor
couch Is usually a genius. But this la '
a somewhat empty assertion, and at
any rate It comprises a belief that Is
In nowise shared by housewives and
landladies.
As a concluding rule for diagnosing
character by tobacco bublts, It may be
accepted that the best men smoke
quietly and without ostentation, offer
you a good cigar without a prepara
tory oratlou on Its cost and merits and
smoke their pipes and cigars out to
the end. When n man Is concerned
because his friends nre not smoking
with him, he U a person to be culti
vated. Impertinent.
Speaking of a niau noted for his Im
pertinence, an acquaintance said :
T.lunk's Impudence was second only
to that of u waiter I beard about the
other day.
' 'Look here, waltci,' said a guest,
'this fish Is not cooked properly."
"I know it, sir," said the waiter,
'but you told me It was for your wife.'
"'Well, what of that':' asked the
surprised guest.
''Why,' said the waiter, 'I knew
that if the lady was your wife sbe
xnildn't be very particular."'
I nsured.
"I suppose you will be very careful
not to mnUu any mistakes during your
first term."
"Mistukes!" echoed the new mem
ber. "I should say not. I am so com
pletely slighted that I don't even get
a chance to make mistakes." Wash
