Cooking Potatoes.

Professor Blot in his lecture On cook
ing, deprecatos the practice of eating off
such enormous thick parinss from potatoes
as is the custom Of most people, to save
the trouble of neatly digging out the eye,
which lies deep below the surface. The
lecturers caution seems to have been di-
rected simply against shiftless style of
manipulation, which wasted certain bulk
of potato. If this were the extent'of the
evil, it would hardly be serious fault, as
potatoes are cheap and plenty, and the
time saved mig offset the waste of food.
The truth is, however, that almost the sole
value of the potato is near the surface. so
near that very thick peeling would take
the biggest part of the nutriment This
is at once made obvious by examining a
thin slice Of potato with microscope,
when the starch granules will be found ly-
ing in the greatest number in belt just
under the skin and increasing towards the
centre. They are placed here for the nou-
rishment of the young sprout, which
springs from the eye and which being
like beauty, only skin Deep is required
to go no deeper for its food during the ger
minating process.
This starch is, for all practical purposes,
the entire nutriment which the potato con-
tains. there being only two per cent. of
gluten. while seventy five per cent is clear
water. For if it is worth while to eat the
potato at all. it is obviously foolish to
throw away the nutriment and save only
the water-cells.

The Best Way to Make Coffee

Coffee may be prepared Ill three differ
emit manners, either by filtration, by infus-
ion, or by decoction. Infusion, accord
ing to Liebig, often produces, though not
always the case, good coffee When the
operation is badly performed, viz when
the boiling water is poured slowly upon the
powdered coffee, the drops become impreg-
mated with large quantity Of air, oxygen
having by this sufficient time to dilute the
aromatic qualities, and even destroy them
entirely. 1t is therefore, necessary in such
case, to make use of an tight vessel.
BY filtration the water dissolves but seven
to ten per cent. of matter instead of TWEEN
ty to twenty-one per cent. of the berry,
and the loss consequently rises from ten to
thirteen per cent.
The infusion is produced by boiling wa
ter and throwing into it coffee which has
been ground, Immediately removing the
vessel containing it from the fire and allow
ing it to settle for FIVE or six minutes.
This method gives light-colored but very
aromatic coffee. Decoction: This man
ner is principally used in the East It pro-
duces, according to Liebig, an exquisite
beverage. The pulverized coffee is thrown
into cold water, and the whole is placed
upon the fire until it begins to boil. The
coffee which floats at the top is then drank
with the prepared liquid Many persons
would certainly not like to see their cup
filled with the brown deposit of the pow
dered coffee we, therefore, prefer the fol-
lowing method, which is at the same time
an infusion and decoction Take the
same proportion Of coffee and water as you
are accustomed to use, and which depends
entirely upon the taste of the consumer,
but fifteen cranes, of ctff.e will produce
two cups of moderate strength. The ber-
rles ought to be ground just before being
used. Divide the powdered coffee into two
parts, then throw about three parts of it into
cold water, and let it boil for ten minutes;
then throw in the small remaining guam
tity and raise it Immediately from the fire,
cover it and allow it to settle for about if
teen minutes, when it will be ready for
use. The liquid may be quickly strained
through muslin, if the small quantity Of
powder floating at the top is objected to.
Coffee thus prepared ought to be ola bright
brown color, but not black, It is always
thick, like chocolate. when mixed will wa
ter. The thickness of the liquid does not
proceed ~6m the small quantity of coffee
which floats at the top, but from a fatty
matter analogous to butter, of which pow
dered coffee contains alouttwelve per cent,
of its weight. This is the best method of
obtaining good aromatic coffee ExLeri-
mentalists sometimes do not succeed. but
they may be certain that they VIII not fail

ARTEMUS WARD.

Sne gone to land of no laughter,
This man that made mirth for us all
Proves death but silence hereafter
From the sounds that delight or aepall
once closed, have the lips no moys duty,
No more pleasure the exquisae ears
has the heart done o'erfowng with beauty,
AS the eyes have with tsars
Nay, taught be sur, what can be surer
Than that Eartls good decays not with earth :?
And of all the beart's springs none are purer
Than the springs of the fountains of Mirth..
He that sounds them has pierced the hearts
~ bellows,
The places where tears are and sleep.
FIR the foam fakes that dance in .ife's shadows
Are wrung from LIES deep.
He came with heart full of gladness
From the glad hearted world of the West
Won our laughter but not with mere madness
.Spake and joked with us, not in mere Jest
For the Man in our heart fingered after,
When the merriment died from our ears
And those that were loudest in laughter
Are silent in tears
