PROFESSOR BLOT ON COFFEE MAKING.
Grind the coffee, rather fine than other
wise. think it is usually ground too
coarse. 1 use coffee pot with filter.
You can get them at any tin store.
Mixed coffee is best. l prefer mixture
of Java, Mocha and Maracaibo. Soft
or spripg water is best. Proportions,
one quart of water to three ounces OF
coffee. Of course, it can be made
stronger or weaker. Four teaspoonfuls
make quart of very good coffee for
breakfast, but too strong for children.
In selecting filter, or coffee biggin,
choose one with bottom of silvered
gauze, instead of perforated tin, as the
perforated bottom lets the finely ground
coffee through. Good coffee cannot be
made in what is wrongly called coffee
pot, which has no filter, and is much
like tea pot. Such utensil requires
the coffee to be boiled, which ruins it,
leaving bitter taste, and sends all the
aroma to the attic.
When the water is boiling hot, put
the coffee in the filter, and pour the water
over it, and the coffee is made. If the
water does not pass through fast enough,
set the kettle on the fire again until the
water in it boils, when pour it on again.

STEP BY STEP.
NJ J. @. HOLLAND.

Heaven il not reached by q single bound;
But We build the ladder by which we rise
From the l0wly earth 10 the vaulted skes,
And VIC mount to its summit round BY round.
II ount these things to b grandly true,
That noble deed il step towards God
Lifting the soul from the common sod
To purer air and broader view.
We rise by the things that are under onr feet
By what we have mastered in greed and
gain,
BY the pride deposed and the passion slai n.
And the vanquished i'll ws hourly meet.
We hope, We resolve. We aspire, We trust,
When the morning eaik n life aud light,
But our heart grows weary, and ere the
night
Our lives are trailing in the sordid dust.
Wings for the angels bot feet for the menl
We must borrow the wings to f.sd the way
We may hope, and resolve, and aspire, and
pray
But our feet must rise or We fall again.
Only in dreams is the ladder thrown
From the wearv earth b the sapphire wall,
But the dreams depart and the visions fall,
And the sleeper wakes on his pillow Of stone.
Hsaven is not reached At single bound;
But We build the ladder by which We rise.
From the lowly earth {, the vaulte1 ekies,
And we mount to its summit round BY ronud.

Green0cll, which Is seaport town.
she asked the boy what he had
come there for. He said lie wish.
ed to be sailor, and hoped SO ne
of the captains would engage him.
She gave him halt crown, wished
hin, success, and told him to be q
good boy, AMI try to love and serve
God.
After this, twenty years passed
away. One afternoon the coach
was goiug along tha, same road,

the passengers was a sea captain.
