The value of coffee as a beverage is

sentially true both in regard to economy
and health.

process the berries assume the dark brown

real oil developed. which gives the coffee
its delicate aroma. To obtain the finest
flavor from the berry, the coffee should be
used as soon as possible after roasting
owing to the volatile nature OF the oil
which is rapidly dispelled, and the aroma

History informs US that the first coffee

and became so popular as to have many
rivals and SO excite the condemnation OF
the priests, on account OF the counter at

servances and to cause the "ungodly coffee
divans" to be closed by the mufti for a
time. But they, finally proving that coffee
did not come under the head OF coal. which
is forbidden the pious Mussulman's use by
the Koran, the ban was removed. The
first London coffee house was opened about
1862. and in Queen Anne's time there were
5000 in existence. These partook much OF

cording to individual preference or choice
OF kindred spirits; but at all or any OF

WASHINGTON TEN PERCENTERS.
Government Clerks Who Lend to
Fellow WOrkmen.

"I reckon I'll sell my salary this

"To whom? asked his friend
"Why, to one Of the 10 percenters,

Dialogues such as this are Of fire.
quent occurrence between Government
clerks I'm Washington toward the end
of the month. When a clerk sells his
salary to q 10 per center he gives the
latter an /. o. U. for the entire salary
due him on the following payday and
receives in exchange 80 per cent OF the
amount The man who makes the loan
retains the remaining 10 per cent,
whence his name of 10 percenter.
The 10 per center is said to exist
under one name or another in all OF
the great Federal Department build
ings in Washington. He is invariably
a shrewd Government clerk, who has
a bit of money of his own or has saved
his salary until its accumulation rep
resents a tidy little sum. This capital
he is ever ready to lend in sums of
from SO to 800.
In a majority of Washington Offices,
the laws against usurers are so rigor-
ously enforced that the 10 percenter
is unable to transact business in safe
ty, as an individual; he exists, never
theless, under the protecting title Of
a beneficial society, These fake socie-
ties should not be confused with the
mutual beneficiary organizations,
which have been established for a num-
Der of years i'm many of the Depart
ments, notably the Government Print
ing Office, for the purpose of aiding
sick or disabled members and their
families and of burying the dead. The
10 percenters' society never includes
more than five or six members. They
have their charter and a carefully
drawn constitution and bylaws.
Each member contributes a certain
amount of money to the funds. Of the
concern and the other employees OF the
Office are quietly informed how they
can be accommodated with a loan for a
small bonus. On the first Of every
month the pool divides its profits.
These organizations are usually short
lived, as they become unpopular when
the business begins to grow large. The
death Of one fake association is rapidly
followed by the birth of a successor,
differing from its predecessor in name
only; so that the 10 percenters are
enabled to ply their trade without
mucu interruption.-New York Sun.
