COFFEE.

Intense heat is necessary to the eytrac-
ton Of all the valuable properties of the
berry, but actual boiling dlssipates the
fragrant volatile oil and extracts the tan
mic acid of the coffee. This acid, in com
bination with the cream or milk usually
served with coffee, hardens the albumen
which they contain into an indigestible
compound which is excessively irritat-
ing to the delicate internal membranes.
Therefore, in making coffee we must en-
deavor to secure the requisite strength
without rlsklng corresponding lack of
flavor and extraction of tannic acid. |
have tried various coffee pots ranging
from French percolators down to earthen
biggnis, and am satisfied that good coffee
can be made in any pot, cup or pitcher.
The right proportion OF good coffee is one
ounce and a-half ofthe pure berry, ground
very fine, to each quart of water. The
water must be boiling when it is poured
on the coffee, but must not boil after
ward. The vessel in which the beverage
is made must stand near enough to the
fire to maintain temperature Of about
200 Fair. for five or ten minutes before
using. If it is made in a pot containing
strainer it will clear; if it is made in an
ordinary pot or pitcher it should be stirred
for three minutes in order to thoroughly

Cured of Borrowing.

There was a meeting of the Grange.
The farmers came IN one after another,
and soon the little school house was
filed with an anxious, happy assembly.
Jonathan Fuller, the chairman, raped
for order and called the roll. Every man
answered to his name with the exception
of Mr.. Haynes. Mr.. Fuller announced
at the conclusion of the preliminary
business that there was no particular
theme for discussion, and moved that
John Bangs make remarks upon any
subject he might choose. The whole
meeting seconded the motion with a
roar.
Mr.. Bangs arose and looked at the
eobWeb in the corner of the room as if he
thought there was an inspiration in its
dusty drapery. He then glanced at the
floor and said he believed he had moth
ing to say. The crowd stamped and
yelled, and amid the discOrd could be
heard cries of $50 on, 'YOu must say
something" "Hurrah for Bangs" etc,
all of which quite took the old farmer
was standing and balancing himself
against the desk. The uprOar ceased and
Bangs cleared his throat.
'Well, Pm not that sort o. citizen as
wants to make hard feelin's 'mong each
other, but when I sees a screw loose
wants to take a screw-driver and tighten
1t. The audience Uttered and stamped.
Bangs fixed his eyes on the cobweb, then
glanced at the chairman, who acted as if
be had been shot, and turned his eyes
from the speaker to a crack in the cell
ing.1 Now it is a good thing to have a
Grange. lt is useful thing to have 1t
made strong; in fact, it is the best screw

There has been a screw loose for a long

1t is time to commence turnin' your
screw-driVer on it. You all know what
q bOtheratiOn it is to borrow, and what a
still disagreeabler thing it is to lend.
Loud Clapping and stamping. AS
said, 1 don't want any hard feelin's, but
u any Of you have been bothered as
much as 1 have, you'll not blame me for
saying Caleb Haynes is the worst nui-
BRuce we have. He bOrrOWs everything.
His vile is getting into the same habit,
and the yOungster, too. He Is the screw
that's loose. Now let's talk up some
way to cure Caleb, for we all know he is
good at heart; besides that, I want to get
q screW-driver he borrowed of me not
long ago for my woman is about to take

This brief, extempOraneOus address
was toliowed by wild cheering and ex-
cited stamping till the whole room was
one cloud Of dust. No one minded it but
the spider, who scampered over his
swinging mansions delicate carpetings
and settled himself down in his back
chamber In perfect disgust at the be-
haviour of the Changers.
The plans suggested for curing Caleb

run a crate full of monkeys belonging to
some show. 1t was parttiOned into
Cubby holes, and if there was one there
was five dozen lively monks in that
crate. We leased them a while and
bantered each other to let some of them
out, until at last one fellow said if we
would stand by him he would let every
darned monkey in the cage out. Well,
he did, and / never saw a menagerie like
that express Office. Every pile of goods,
peg, and shelf, was alive with monkeys,
big, little, young, and old 1t was real
funny for an hour or so, but it took half
a day to catch them. We put on mittens
and buck gloves and went for them and
they went for Us, biting and scratching
like little imps. We fiue around the
room, rolling over kegs, boxes, and bales.
One venerable monkey with q row Of
white Whiskers around his face, caught
me by the shoulder and tore my sleeve
down TO the wrist, with q wholesome
scratch underneath; another made q

PIE PRAISE OF MYSTERY.

Goddess Of.eld,
In reverence held
When earth was scant Of history;
St1n IN her prime of years,
Through mist OF human tears,
ROIshipped to-day;
When she decTepit grows
With weight OF human woes,
AdOred for aye.
Thou hOaTy, vague divinity.
Older than all,
Of none the thrall
save one supermesJ Trinity
Great Mlthra showed thy might;
Zach Eteusinian rite
For thee was made;
When the Druid spoke
A spirit iron the oak.
TO thee he prayed.
The GIFT Of sacred prophecy
on Jewish lips
Did not eclipse
Always thy star Of ecstasy,
on, Whenin Christian fame,
Men blessed atOning pain
With bread and wine,
The glOries of the host
That aWed the piOus most
Were partly thine.
Now, IN the day Of unbelief,
The bOldest one,
Hard pressed upon.
Seeks In thy temple some relief,
Revolving from the creed
That builds on God indeed
And pardonfng grace,
His soul deDarred of rest,
He scans in eager quest
Thy nebulOus face,

Thursday night Whether it is the real name
of The unfortunate woman is still doubtful.
Tie name written by her in the register,

came from New England town intending
TO take her life without revealing her
