Both are made from the same bush and both are equally pure. The difference is in the process of manufacture which gives each a different flavour. Black Tea after it is plucked is withered and partially 'fired' of dried, then allowed to oxidize by being exposed to the air. This gives Black Tea its dark reddish colour when drawn. Green tea is immedi- ately steamed after plucking, which pre- vents oxidization. There are delicious blends of "SALADA" in both of these types and also a unique blend of Black and Green Tea Mixed. All are sold in four gualities. ; ing to give hi» sister away. Some of again In a few day*.

The schoolmistress had played the wedding march from I-ohengrin, and was prepared to play Mendelssohn as the party lefj the church, but when the service was over Mrs. Macdonald whispered fiercely in Jean's car, "You can't be married without '0 God of Bethel,'" and ousting the schoolmis- tress from he*" pl*ce at the organ, she struck the opening notes. They knew it by heart â€" Jean and Davie and Jock and Mhor and Lewis Elliot â€" and they sang it with the unction with which, one sings the songs of Zion by Babylon's streams. "Through each perplexing path of life Our wandering footsteps guide. Give us each day our daily bread And raiment fit provide. O spread Thy covering wings around Till all our wanderings cease, !

The' house was so- wholly in tune with the] landscape that the eye did not at once | detect it, for its gabies might have been part of wood or hillside. It was of stone, and built in many periods and in many styles, which time had subtly blended so that it seemed a perfect thing without beginning, as long descended as the folds of downs which sheltered it. The austere Tudor front, the Restoration wing, the offices built under Queen Ai^tc, the library fMed in the days of the Georges, had â- f Borne alchemy become one.

It seemed to her the most i>erfect thing that could be imagined. She walked in shyly, winged like Mercury, to be greeted respectfully by a row of servants. Jean shook hands with each one, smiling at them | with her "doggy" eyes, wishing all the . time for Mrs. McCosh, who was not; special'ly I'espectful, but always home-j ly and humorous. | Tea was ready in a small panelled; room with a view of the lawns andj the river.
