During the seven- teenth centur , all tea was imported from China and cost from $25.00 to $50.00 per pound. Not until 1836 did any tea reach England from India. In that year the first shipment was made from the now famous tea growing district of Assam. India to- day.supplies fully half the world’s tea re- quirements and provides some of the fines teas grown.

Like a wasp that is crushed a man turns to sting that which hurts him. But when a woman is brt ised, wound- ed to the death, ground to powder, if the heel be the heel of the man she loves, it cannot grind the great love out of her heart. Such love as this, Kit, does not come at will. It does not go at bidding. It is there, Kit. You do not understand. You never will wholly, for you are a man. that is the truth. God has made woâ€" man so that because I loved that man once I must love him always!” The relieving tears walled up silent- ly in the greyâ€"blue eves. There they stood for a moment. like water in an over-full glass held by a sort of surâ€" face tension. Then they ran slowly over and dripped unhecded one by one upon. her lap. One fell on Kit's hand.
