Few housekeepers remember, as they should, that when it is necessary to dilute strong tea it should, be done with water at the boiling point. The poor flavor .of tea, made strong at first and then reduced, such as is too often. served at receptions and "at homes," is usually caused by the ad- dition of hot, not boiling water to the first infusion. A lesson in this matter may be had from the Russians, who serve the most delicions tea in the world, and who prepare it first very strong, making it almost an essence of tea. This is diluted to the strength wished, with water kept boiling in the samoVa.r.• This water is not allowed to boil and reboil, but is renewed as needed. Freshly boiled water is in- sisted upon by all conneisseurs in tea - making. $6.90 for young men's swell tailor- made, dark srey chiveot walking overcoat specially made for Otlr Own trade.
