the coffee is drawn off by means of a faucet at
the bottom of the pot. As the water boils it
forces itself into the box by way OF the tube,
and runs through the ground coffee and out OF
the perforations into the bottom of the pot, hav-
ing been changed from clear water to coffee of
a rich brown color and a delicious flavor.
Those pots made after the French model are
especially desirable for making black coffee.
They are more Ornamental than the German
model. and can be had In copper. brass, or
nickel plated. From an economical standpoint
tho nickel plated are the most desirable. since
they, are less easily furnished and are cleaner
looking. The method OF coffee making is very
much tho same rs in the German pot, the only
difference being that the water is forced through
the grounds twice instead OF once and less Of the
steam Is allowed to escape. The result Is strong
coffee, very black. and 1t is claimed tho natural
taste Of the bean Is more perfectly retained than
by any other pot, This result. according to the
dealers, is reached because so little steam CO.
cnpes. and whenever a pot is invented where all
the steam can be held the result will give q per.
feet coffee In flavor as well as color.

The boleros, the becoming little Jackets, are

Some Of them are left open In the back and are

the old Methods.
There are two new coffee pots for next sea-
sons campaign, and to the delight Of house,
keepers and coffee drinkers, both pots are good.
They both measure up to what is claimed for
them; they make good coffee. One comes to us
from Germany, and the other. 1t is said, was
until this season manufactured only in France.
The German pot is Of copper, an egg.shaped
affair. swinging in an oval frame, with an alco-
hol lamp beneath. This lamp has no wick, and
holds just enough alcohol to make the water in
the pot boil the requisite length Of time. The
coffee grounds are put into a perforated tin box,
situated In the cup-shapcd lid of the pot, with a
long tube attached. The pot is filed three
quarters full of cold water. and the tube and box
are put in place. Then the coffee maker sets fire
to the alcohol and waits until 1t burns out. Then
