IN A CLEAR TEACUP, YOU CAN SEE FOREVER: Peer into the future by brewing up a batch of Constant Comment by R. C. Bigelow. After you enjoy the tea, why not practice the ancient art of tea-leaf reading by finding special pat­ terns in the loose tea leaves? Your future can be charted from the stars in the heavens, or closer to home, right in your favor­ ite teacup. The origins of the an­ cient art of tea-leaf read­ ing are lost forever, but t h e f a s c i n a t i o n a n d f u n in predicting events are as strong now as in the gypsies' heyday. To soothe and soothsay Loose tea must be used in divining the future. Constant Comment tea, as its tell-all name implies, lends itself to soothsaying as well as providing a delicious, aromatic drink. This fragrant tea by R. C. Bigelow blends fine moun­ tain-grown leaves with golden orange rind and sweet spice. Even a beginner can foresee tomorrow while relaxing over a cup of tea. By twirling a remaining sip of Constant Comment, the falling leaves take on the shape of people, num­ bers, animals, plants, sym­ bols, whatever. Then, with a hint of inspiration, the forms can be interpreted in a way to forecast the day. - Cup of stars To do an actual reading, take the cup in your left hand (representing the unconscious mind) and spin slowly to spread the leaves. Turn the cup over on the saucer, rotate three times, place right side up and read. Dots stand for fortune. A star, success. A hat, good luck. Do you see the letter D?"It's for dan­ ger. The number 7? Per­ fection. A ship signifies travel; a butterfly mearts a pleasure trip. Newest For the types who'd rather not peer into the future, enjoy yourself by using teabags for a tea break. Bigelow has some special blends that are an adventure by themselves. Try Rose Garden, made "* with rose hips and hibiscus blossoms. It has a light, fruit-like flavor and a col­ or as pink as the petals of a summer rose. Or, Lemon Lift, with the just-squeez­ ed flavor of real lemons blended with spices. Cin­ namon Stick touches its tea leaves with the tingle of pure cinnamon. Take a look at the mes­ sage teas are revealing today. The new brews are full of mystery -- both to soothe the psyche and stir the imagination. *"5» net value • Dresses • Sportswear • Sweaters * Jewelry • Blouses Time of your life C • ' y^enevieve 5 1315 Riverside Drive McHenry 385-0238 Hows: Thurs. 830 • 5:30 FRI. 9:00 • 9:00 SAT. 9:00 • 5:30 STRAIGHT A's -- These new electronic calendar watches offer young scholars guaranteed accuracy on the wrist, thanks to their transistorized Accutron movement. The movement, powered by an aspirin-size power cell that lasts at least 12 months, is identical to the movement in Accutron timers and clocks used by the space program and emplaced on the moon. Its tuning fork vibrates 31,104,000 each day, Bulova engineers report, or 11,352,960,000 times a year. But the power consumed is so small (about 8 millionths of u watt) that the power used by a toaster to toast one slice of bread would operate an Accutron watch about 250 years. ONE OF THE MOST FASHIONABLE new looks in tennis wear is created by Loomtogs in 100 per cent Trevira poly­ ester. The great looking dress with scalloped edging all around, will be available in leading stores everywhere throughout the summer and through the fall. Just the thing to take bark to college for fall tennis games on campus!
