pouring a tremendous fire upon its
walls, at lenth captured it, with Five
Million Sewing Machines, among which
was the famous Singer, which are to be
sold hereafter at greatly reduced
figure, also attachments, oil, rubbers,

And other styles in proportion.
Those wishing to purchase will do well
to see or write to G. M. Drew, who is
now working in opposition to the Sew

Remember, everything sell in the

plea that the Sewing Machine Oombi-

their exorbitant prices. Their only
hope now is strategy. So if you want
anything in the sewing machine line,
from a check spring up to machine,
call on G.. NJ Drew.

Concerning oonee Drinking.
dManufactnrer and Builder

Manufacturer and Builder.
How strong should coffee be TIA
ken is an inquiry of much praetic-
al importance. How much should
DE taken at meal is scarcely of
less moment. Coffee, like any
other beverage, may wholly ruin
the health; the very use of it tends
TO this, as certainly does the use
of wine, cider, beer, or any other
artificial stimulating drink. There
as only one safe plan of using COT
fee, and that is never, under any
circumstances, except OF an extra
ordinary character, exceedin guam
tity, frequency, or strength-take
only one cup ut the regular meal,
and of e given, unvarying strength
In this way it may be used every
day for lifetime, not only without
INJURY, but with greater advantage
than IN equal amount of cold wa,
ter, and for the simple reason that
nothing cold should be drank at a,
regular meal, except by persons In
vigorous health.
We have personally known of
the case of lady who was for u
Gong time in poor health, to the
mystifcation of several physicians
whom she consulted, when at last
we discovered that she made a.
most extravagant use OF strong
coffee many times day-in fact,
she had a pot of coffee always at
hand. Following the advice to-
abstain from coffee resulted in an
immediate end of all her trouble.
In regard to the strength it is
maintained by some that one3
pound of the bean should make
sixty cups of the very best coffee.
If man takes coffee for breakfast
only, one pound should last him
two months, Or six pounds q year.
One pound of coffee should be-
made to last family of ten per-.
sons, Young and old, a week. Put
about two ounces of ground coffee
an quart of water. or rather di-
vide the coffee into seven portions,
one for each breakfast in the week,
and make quart of coffee out of
it, which will be sixty-four tea
spoonfuls. Give the youngest two
seaspeonfuls and the Oldest dozen,
the remainder of the one cup be-
ing filled up with boiled milk.
This will give a cup Of coffee suffi-
ciently strong for all healthful pur-
poses, for the respective ages; and
for various reasons, pecuniary as
well as physical, some such sys-
tematic plan as this should be
adopted in every family in the
land.
How to make the cup of coffee
good is third question. 1t is,
perhaps, as good and as easy a
plan as any to buy the coffee un-
ground, pick out those grains that
are imperfect, wash it, parch MS
much us will last q day or two,
with your eve npon it all the time,
until it is of a rich brown. with no
approach of black about it. Grind
only enough for the days use;
grind it fine, for the greater the
surface exposed to the hot water
the more of the essence you will
have; pour the boiling water on the
coffee and close it up. Some boil
1t q little; others prefer not to boil
at all, but let stand to clear ter
minutes, then use.
