A GOOD CUP OF TEA
The secret of making a good cup of tea is thoroughly to dry the teapot after it has been heated before putting in the leaves. Many make the mistake of leaving a small drop of water in the pot when the water used to heat it is poured away. The flavour of the brow is then completely spoiled by saturating the leaves with half-tepid water before the boiling water is poured in. And hero's a hint. To remove tea stains from table linen, dab them with glycerine and then wash the articles in the usual way. This will remove stains even if they are several days old, and will not damage the linen in any way.
