Black OuTant Jelly.

You will probably require from three
10 four pints Of fruit for every pint Of
juice you require for jelly. Strip the
currants from the stalks, and put them
In pan over the fire, and simmer them
gently till their juice is extracted. Then
strain them through a cloth, clean tea
cloth, OF foe wire sieve or hair sieve, and
allow one pound Of loaf sugar to each
pint Of juice and one gill Of water. Put
all into a pan, and stir them till the
sugar is quite dissolved; then place the
pan on the fire, and boil for about three
quarters Of an hour. Carefully remove
sll scum as it rises. II the jelly 10 firm
when little is put on plate and al
lowed to cool, it lie done. Put it in small
jars, which must be clean and dry.
When cold, cover.
II you are anxious for the jelly to be
very clear, do not press the fruit at all
when straining off the juice; but, Of
course, you must not expect so much
juice. II the fruit is not squeezed, boil
it up with little sugar, and it will do
we'll for tarts. Red currRnt, white cur
rant, and raspberry jelly are all made in
the same way, but only allow three
quarters Of pound Of sugar to each pint
Of juice, and omit the water.

essary. The Veesel must be thoroughly
clean and free from all fsvor OF any
other article; the water must be boiling,
and the coffee must be ground very
finely. Few hOusekeepers realize that
they waste half their coffee by coarse
grinding. The particles must be as fine
as the best grsnulsted corn meal. It
will make at least one-third difference in

Making Coffee.

Almost everybody makes coffee, or at
least they think they do, but The con-
noisseur is scarcely willing to admit that
the beverage which passes under the
name OF coffee has any right to such
title. The world ia full OF poor coffee
exceedingly poor, and while there is un-
questiOnably a great deal of trash which
10 called coffee put upon the market, the
cook is largely responsible for it, be-
cause as everybody knows, the very
finest grade Of this article may be spoiled
in the making.
Expert CofIee-makers sometimes roast
their own coffee. This is easily done
with the regular rooster, which works
very much on the same principle as the
peanut rosster one sees on the venders
stand. Il is extremely easy to manage,
and the wonder is why more housekeep-
ers do not make use Of it. It may be
placed on the kitchen range Immediately
over the coale, the coffee put in and
slowly and steadily turned until it
smokes. A few times trying will teach
the operator just the proper point to
which the roasting should DO carried,
Unroasted coffee keeps longer than
that which is cooked, and when it is de-
sirable to purchase in large quantities
the roaster has manifest advantage. A
pound or 90 OF coffee may be done at one
time, and II, 10 many people think, the
coffee is better when freshly roasted, the
gain is apparent.
It ia customary Ia some households to
make coffee with egg. This process is
somewhat more troublesome than the
drip, but it has the advantage that it can
be made in any ordinary vessel, while
Che drip must have special pot for this
purpose. One OF the very best Of coffee
makers. however, prepares what she calls
drip coffee by putting the ground coffee
into q small bag OF cheesecloth, tying it
