THE DAY BOOK.
THURSDAY MORNING, June II, 1869.
Episcopal Bishops and tho
Prayer Book.

Bishop Bedell has published
letters from six bishops of the
Protestant Episcopal Church
on the subject of Ritualism and
a change Of the Prayer-Book,
suggested by Bishop Nell
vaine's recent letter in The
Standard of the Cross. Bishop
Henry w. Lee, Of Iowa, says
that from the first the Ritua-
Iistic innovations have filled
him with pain and apprehen-
sion, and he has done what he
could for their Encouragement
and prevention. He believes
that they have a most errone-
Gus tendency, and that they
have done unspeakable injury
to our beloved Church, and
that the real teaching of the
Prayer-Book, as we'll as its
whole history, is against them,
He thinks, however, that the
present season Of strife and
controversy is poor time for
calm and wise and deliberate
revision of such a book as that
of Common Prayer. Bishop
Albert Lee, of Delaware, hearth
Iy concurs i'll Bishop Nell
vaine's Low-Church sent.
ments, and advocates. as a
question of expedicncy, an al
teration in the Prayer-Book al
lowing the liberty Of using al
ternate forms. lie thinks the
discussion Of these subjects has
been harsh, captions and nn-
fair. Bishop Manton East
burn, of Massachusetts,, is still
more cordial in expressing his
sympathy with Bishop Nell
vaine. He also thinks the
time unpropitious for a change
OF the Prayer-Book. Bishop
Thomas H. Vail, Of Kansas,
thinks there need be no eXpla-
tory revisal OF the ritual or
liturgy. Bishop Thomas NJ,
Clark, of Rhode Island, concurs
heartily with Bishop Neil
vaine, as do also Bishop j ohns,
Of Virginia, and Bishop VIM.

MIA, and Bishop Cummins.

ROASTING OFFEE,

The berries of coffee once
roasted, lose every hour some
what of their aroma, IN con-
sequence of the influence Of the
oxygen Of the air, which owing
to the porosity Of the roasted
berries, it can easily penetrate.
This change may be best avoid
ed by strewing over the Der
ries when the roasting is com
rleted, and while the vessel in
which it has been done is still
hot, some powdered white or
brown sugar; half an ounce to
one pound OF coffee is sufficient.
The sugar melts Immediately,
and by we'll shaking or turn
ing the rooster quickly, it
spreads all over the berries and
gives each one a fine glaze,
irnpervious to the atmosphere.
They have then a shining APP
pearance, as though covered
with varnish, and they in con-
sequence lose their smell en-,
tirely, which, however, returns
in Il high degree rs soon as
they are ground.
After this operation they
are to be shaken out Of the r0as-
fer and spread out So that they
may cool as soon as possible.
II the hot berries are to be al
lowed to remain together, they
begin to sweat, and when the
quantity is large, the heating
process, by the influence Of air,
increases to such a degree that
at last they take fire spontane~
ously. The roasted and glaz-
ed berries should be kept in a
dry place, because the cover
ing OF sugar attracts moisture.

See them when they are intro,

the way in which girls shake

their arms fall as paralyzed,

A Chicago journal offers some

A Chicago journal offers some
very sensible suggestions to
business men on the subject of
advertising. The remarks
were called forth by letter
from a subscriber asking the
address Of a prominent firm
doing business in that city and
dealing largely i'll musical in
struments. This firm were
quite extensive advertisers, but
had always advertised in what
is very properly called the
'spasmodic fashion,. This
manner has become much too
common everywhere. Many
advertisers seem to regard an
occasional card of more than
ordinary length and attractive
ness more etficaciouS than a
standing advertisement. They
forget that the only object of
advertising at all is to cause
names to be indeibly associated
with their business. Or, if
they have this cod in view,
their practice is inconsistent
with THEN motives. fit be Of
any advantage to advertise a
mouth, it is certainly more adj
vantageous to advertise weekly;
and, reasoning syll"gisticalIy,
the daily method is far pretera
bic to either.
