It's a Fine Circus.
Thirty years is a long time between
circuses.
Fredrick V. Holman and George H.
Himes and Miss Fannie Porter, prin
cipal of Failing school, and otners,
the boys and girls of 30 years ago,
can remember the last time John
Robinson's circus came to town.
Its hie white tent was pitched at
Twelfth and Washington, then on the
outskirts of town, and row but
everybody knows how hard it would
he now to crowd even a camp-meet
ing tent into any open space in tnat
district.
But the circus it is some show, as
the crowd which gathered to see it
vesterday In spite of threatening
weather can testify. It was really
too cold for acrobats or performing
animals, both of which Robinson has
in dazzling number end variety, to do
their best. Like ball-players, circus
folk are children of the sun. They
thrive when the mercury hovers hot
weather phrase around the hundred
mark. Then it is that they go through
their acts with dash and Joy, when they
have that elan which makes a tumbler
who ordinarily does only a double so
mersault do a triple with ease.
The menagerie resembles high so
ciety In that it is small but select. All
the beasts, owing to the tardiness of
summer's advent, retain their thick,
strong-colored coats of winter fur. ihe
horses are sleek and fat and clean. The
costumes are not even soiled. It's a
fine, complete show, lacking only hot
weather to make it a top-notcher.
There will be performances this aft
ernoon and evening at Twenty-fifth
and Vaughn etreets, but there was no
street parade at noon because of Me
morial day.

Tea Bibblers.
T IS not only the glass of sparkling.
bubbling wine that cheers, for in
tea. that gentler beverage which
Is so popular in the feminine world
there is sufficient stimulant to inspire
a cozy sociability among the bibblers
So tea has taken the place with wom
en which men so often assign to high
balls or cigars, or both. As men can
become victims of alcoholic stimulants,
so women sometimes become the slaves
of the oriental leaves.
Few women in society escape tea
bibbling. Wherever they go in tha
afternoon they are pretty sure to en
counter a hot teapot. The beverage
forms a part of an average after
noon's entertainment. The washer
woman In the laundry makes a cup
of tea for her guest, while the mis
tress r-ours the aromatic beverage
into delicate cups to refresh the friend,
or friends, in her home.
A cup of tea is very refreshing, es
neciallv in the late afternoon when
the day's duties have started to weary
the body and mind. Its popularity
has expanded, for it is a stimulant
and nearly all women enjoy drinking
tea and nibbling sandwiches or wa
fers. The custom is certainly condu
cive to sociability.
I have heard men say they felt per
fectly at ease with other men after
they opened a bottle of beer or a
cigar box together. Tea occupies such
a place with women.
But the tea habit is one that grows.
This Is the reason that women -should
have a thorough understanding of the
properties of the leaf and its errec:
upon the mind and body.
The serving of tea with meals is an
old Custom. But before It was use3
thus it was a between meal beverage.
From the time of Its appearance in
Europe the fragrant leaves of the
oriental plant have been the targets
of criticism. In fact, I believe some
of the early critics bemoaned the fact
that the pipe and bowl were being dis
placed by an injurious Chinese weed.
Criticisms nave never ceasea, uui
tea Is more popular today than when
first introduced one reason being
that people have a correct knowledge
of its properties and their effect upon
the human body.
I can see no reason why norma)
people should not drink tea. ui
coure I mean they can safely drink
it in moderation. Tea as a beverage
is a pure and gentle stimulant to the
nerves and circulatory system. Nor
mal persons can Indulge in it with
out harmful effects, but Its use should
be avoided by neurotics. One of itr
principal ingredients is thein, which
quickens the pulse and stimulates
mental activity. It is this effect that
Is sought by tea bibblers. Tannin
and aromatic oils are also properties.
It is astringent in its effect upon the
stomach, and either stimulants nor
astringents should be consumed in
large quantities. Excessive use. es
pecially of green tea, affects the nerv
ous system unfavorably, but people In
normal physical condition can safely
make limited use of it.
Chemists Inform us that tea con
tains but triflina nutriment. It is
held that it retards the waste of the
tissues and diminishes the need or
food. Travelers have stated and ex
perience has shown that people can
exist for long periods on an infusion
of tea leaves..
There is a fine art in the making of
tea which depends to some extent
upon the quality of the leaf used.
The preparation of tea in its best form
is not difficult to accomplish, A five
to seven minute infusion develops
very little tannin. Longer Infusions
are to be avoided. Tea should never
be boiled. A second infusion should
never be made from the same leaves.
With these facts known, there is no
particular reason to condemn the In
telligent use of tea by women who
enjoy good health. A cup is cheering
and cheerful. It gives a tone to social
entertainments and creates a bond
of sympathy between those who drink

to drink more hot tea and less iced
water in the summer, when the crav
ing is for the colder liquid.
Various countries have contributed
ingredients for the cup of tea. A
dash of rum is sometimes added to
the infusion. This is a bad practice.
It may not Jar your conscience so
much to consume alcohol in this way,
but it will have Just as injurious ef

but the most delicious tea, to my way
of thinking, contains nothing foreign
to the aromatic laf but a dash of lem

Sip tea if it adds to your pleasure
but be its master, not Us slave.
