COFFEE.


Let your coffee stand FIVE minutes at
ter the cream and sugar are mixed with
it; then drink, as then the ingredients
are all united, and you have coffee, and
not before-before, you have a mixture
of cream, sugar and coffee, tasting each
NOT so when united. Time improves
coffee both in the raw bean and when
Drowned, and when Toured out. Re-
member this, and improve your coffee.
HOW TO GET SLEEP.
A popular authority says. if person
is disposed to be wakeful at certain
hour of the night, let him at once get
up when he wakes, and stay up. Re-
peated three times he will be cured or,
let him 60 to bed as many hours later as
lies awake at night, and he will sleep
oil night.
