How 10 Make Cnmee

An English cook writes on this subject :.
1t is not good Tolicy to pu chase coffee ready
ground, but if it must be done the supplies
should be small and frcquent. Any one may
test the purity Of ground coffee by shaking
little over tnmblCr Of clear, bright, cold
water, and leaving it for an hour or SO.
Pure coffee commuuicas IS is co,or to water
slowly, aud when the cqlor has been impart-
ed the infusion is still bright and clear, and
the color is never deep. But chicory and
other adulterants qnickly produce an opaque
and dark infusion. The difference is so
striking that for ordinary purpose a better
rest is not required. T. place good coffee
on the table daily lisa simple and inexpensive
business, but it cant ot be done at a penny a
sup, as some folks are in haste to aver. At
for IL to 2Ol. per pound a good coffee in
berry is always obtauable, and 16 pence
may at the present time be considered a fa,r
family price. II is best to Toast and grind
as wanted, but the grinding is the one i'm
pOrtaut point, because ground coffee quickly
parts with its aroma, and there is a great
charm in having it made Immediately from
the mill. In some houses the trouble of
ganding is thought much of, but as a mat
ter of fact, 1t is almost nothing, and mill
costing only few shiIings will last life,
time. Coffee should never be boiled it
should be made with soft water at boiling
heat, but if hard water must be used it
should not be made to boil INT wanted,
| ior boiling augments its hardness. A COM
mon tall coitec-pot will make as good coffee
as any patented invention, but catetiere is
convenient thing as it produces bright cof
fee in lew minutes, and thus enables us to
secure maximum of the aroma an dlsp nse
with the use of any rubbish called 'fninps, y
| Every one to his taste we will say, but as
careless people make the coff e 100 strong
one day and too weak He next the ground
coffee and the bJillug water should be both
measured, and il W II always take as much n
four cups OF water to make three cups of
coffee. For the break fast table the addition
of about onc-eighth of chicory is an improve
ment, but for the dinuer table coffee should
be made without ch'cory because it dulls
the piquant iltyDr Of the genuine article.
Two points in coffee making deter people.
from using 1.-THE Trouble Of gindimg and
the boiling of the milk The grinding. how
ever must be done, and it is really nothing
but the boiling of the milk can be advanta
geously cvaded by using Swiss milk, which
harmonizes perfectly, and by many we'll

RoOI. Notice.

The November number of this welcome
magazine brings with its usually well select
ed resume of the best foreign periodicals. The
place of honor is given to paper on "RuS-
sa and England" " now the burning problem
of foreign politics, which sheds light on the
subject. Andrew Lang's interesting paper
on Egyptian Divine Myths" is a suggestive
contribution to an important branch OF
study and the long and suggestive article
on "Revolution and Evolution" by the
Russian philosopher and scientist Leon Met
chnikoff, will be read with attention by those
interested in one of the greatest questions of
the day. Prof. Freeman's "9rospects of
Home Rule is marked by the great histor-
ian's thoroughuess and judicial care. The
number is rich in purely literary articles
There is a capital analysis Of a great French
man, but little known in America, Paul
Louis Courier st. George Mivart gives us
an interesting account of Austrian Monas-
teries, and there is fresh and readable
sketch of the conditions of life and labor in
"Rural Tuscany" A capital article on
Ilene, and no less suggestive paper on
Coleridge, will please students of literature.
The ghost story, "Coincidences," from that
sturdy veteran of the English monthlies,
BtackToOd'S is unusually strong in its combi-
nation of mystery and adventure. The half
doz m short papers are on current topics of
interest The magazine keeps up its high
standard OF literary excellencs, and appeals
strongly to the cultivated and thoughtful
readers throughout the land.

The Means of COntagion in Scarlet
Fever.

Scarlet fever can be communicated by in

milk has only to stand in the room wher
the disease exists or has existed to absorb
the germs. which are SO subtle SO light, ana
yet SO tenacious as to float in the air and ad-
here to particles of dust.
We all know how much dust is constant,
floating in the air let a beam of sunlight
pass through an opening in the shutter, and
we can readily see how the scales of skin
from the body, pieces of lint, ETC., can carry
these microbes, which may be thrown oil in
the mucus from the nostrils and mouth, or
in the perspiration, and even the urine.
Not only are these secretions germ carriers

proven SO by direct incubation, but the pass

not need the personal contact of individuals
that it etains its vitality for months and even
years, unless it be subjected to certain mia.
ences that either entirely destry it or deprive
it of its maliguancy-these are intense heat,
especially boiling or steam, plenty of fresh

chlorine, sulphurous acid, and others. There
is one other point which is hnpor ant 1t is
now known that animals, such as horses and
dogs have disease which is evidently scar

tina OF man, and probably their disease can
be communicated to man.
The poison OF scarlatina is then, eitle

Care of the Eyes.

Keep shade on your lamp or gas burner.
Avoid all sudden changes between light
and dark ness.
Never begin to read, write or sew for sew
eral minutes after coming from darkness to
bright light,
Never read by twilight moonlight, or on
cloudy days.
Never read OF sew directly in front of the
light, window or door.
1t is hest to let the light fall from above,
obliquely, over the left shoulder.
Never sleep 50 that, on awakening, the
eyes shall open on the light of a window.
Do not use the eyesight by light so scant
that it requires an effort to discriminate.
The moment you are instnctively prompt
ed to rub your eyes, that moment stop using
them.
II the eyelids are glued together on wax
ing up, do not foreioly open them, but apply
saliva with the iingers-it is the speediest
dilutant in the word tLen wash your eyes
and face in warm water.

Ponds Extract, ''Merit wins" is the
motto Of the extract These who have
used it for Pains and Injuries have made
its merits known.

Hot water is the best thing that can be
used to heal spran or bruise. The wound
ed part should be placed in water as hot as
can be borne for fifteen Or twenty minutes,
and in all ordinary cases the pain will grad
ually disappear. Hot water applied by
means of clothes is a sovereign remedy for
neuralgia and pleurisy pains. For burns OF
scalds, apply cloths well saturated with cool
alum water, keeping the injured parts Gov
