OFFICIAL CUP OF COFFEE.
Proper Method Of Brewing the Bsv-
erags to b Determined In
g Washington.

BY direction Of the secretary Of axri.
culture the bureau Of plant industry 10 to
take up At. once experiments to deter.
mine the best manner in which to brew .
cup of coffee. To this end, says 4 Wash.
ington report, +. l.. Lewton, . specially
trained expert, has beep engaged. The
view Of the departmentfis that cup Of
coffee 10 good because of the manner in
which it 10 brewed, rather than from the
quality Of the bean from which the bev.
erage il made. 1t will be appreciated by
all persons acquainted with the art and
mystery Of coffee-making that various con.
dltions, apparently trivial in themselves,
have to be taken into consideration in
producing the beverage.
For instance, in the process of roasting
the beans may be more or less damaged
by being under or over done, and the
flavor Of the coffee thus impaired to .
corresponding degree. Hence the necessity
tor ideal conditions in roasting. Again, the
effects of water at various temperatures
upon the ground coffee and the proper
period for infusion will, for the frat
time in the history of cofee-making, be
thoroughly and accurately ascertained.
The retention Of caffeine, the active
principle of coffee, to which it owes ito
stimulating effects, and the elimination Of
the cafeotannic and caffeic acids, when
are not only injurious to health, but com.
municate an unpleasant, bitter taste to
the beverage, will be. Of course. tho prin.
clpal objects.

PREPARING PoTTlNG SOIL.
A Little Forethought and Care VIII
Give the Farmer Distinct Ad-
vantage in the Spring.

On every farm 1t happens in the
spring that the farmer wants sup
ply of rich dirt filed with vegetable
matter and that will cause the tender
seedlings to push forward with tha
greatest possible speed. This dirt IL
called potting dirt, but it is used also
in the hotbeds. To have it ready for
use in the spring its preparation must
begin In the fall long before the ground
is frozen. Sod and manure are the
elements out of which good potting soil
is compounded. II the sod is clay sod q
good deal of sand will also have to be
added to it in the spring. At this time,
however, the sod and manure may be
mixed. A layer of sod and layer Of
manure piled up to any height to rot Is
the foundation. In applying the sand
it must be remembered that good com.
post Of this kind requires in It finally
at least three times as much sand a.
clay.-Farmer's Review.

MURMURS FROM GROUND.
Strange Sounds Heard for Many Cen
turtles on the Red Sea
- Borders.

A singular phenomenon occurs on the
borders Of the Red sea to . place called
Nakous, where intermittent underground
sounds have been heard for an unknown
number of centuries. It IL situated about
half mile. distant from the shore,
whence long reach of sand ascends rap
idly to 4 height of 800 feet. This reach IL
about $40 feet wide and resembles an am
phitheater, being walled by low rocks.
The sounds coming up from the ground
Ut this place recur at intervals of about
IN hour. They At first resemble low
murmur, but ere long there is heard q
loud knocking, somewhat like the strokes
OF bell and WHICH at the end of about
five minutes becomes 20 strong az to agi-
tate the sand. The explanation Of this
curious phenomenon given by the Arabs
10 that there il Z convent under the
ground here and that these monks ring
for prayers. So they call it Nakous,
which means = bell.
The Arabs affirm that tho noise 10
frightens: their camels when they hear It
- to render them furious. Philosophers
attribute the sound to suppressed volcanic
action-probably to the bubblins Of gas
or vapor underground

prominent physician, Of Chicago, re
Gently. Zone of the leading RESIDENT,
of Mulhausen, Germany, Is coming Il
Chicago for medical treatment, an0
will probably be accompanied by two
or three of his neighbors who have the
same purpose in view. The novelty ot
this announcement rests in the fact
that until recently there has been an
almost universal opinion to the eff.
feet that the medical .practitic aers in
European cities, notably Berlin,
Vienna and Paris, were more I'd.
sanced and competent thap those IN
the United States. This opinion has
applied especially to the treatment OF
nervous disorders of a chronic nature,
with the result that hundreds OF
Americans have gone abroad yearly in
search Of health and contributed an
immense amount Of money in the form
OF large fees to foreign specialists
The coming to Chicago of the gentle.
man referred to marks an important
change in this respect, and brings
forcibly to mind the fact that in the
estimation of thinking people abroad
American physicians stand in the fore
most ranks of the profession.
I'm this particular instance the pa,
t1ent is afflicted with a chronic
nervous at'-'ent which has baffled TO,
years the efforts of the most noted
specialists in Germany and France
Hearing of the wonderful results OBJ:
tanned by the lymph treatment hi
made thorough investigation, in the
course of which he obtained strong
Endorsement from a large number OF
people similarly afflicted who had beer
successfully treated. Besides this hi
had the matter carefully examined into
by trusted agents in this country, with
the result that he made arrangements
to place himself in care of the Goat
Lymph Sanitarium association, the
Chicago headquarters of which are in
the Auditorium building. In com.
menting upon this case brother ply.
Stefan remarked to me:
If the results thus far obtained by
the Goat Lymph Sanitarium associa.
ton during an experience of some
four years continue at the same ratio,
Chicago is sure to become the medi.
cal center Of the world. I under
stand that in the instance you cite

most famous specialists in Germany
to take the lymph treatments man
who gave the subject careful consider
alton and admitted that the effects OF
the treatment were far beyond what
could be obtained abroad. have per-
sonally given some attention to it, and

WHAT HELPS OPTICIANS.
Man Who Wears Glasses Tells WHY
There Are So Many in tho
Business,

Before ever wore glasses" said q
man who now does wear them, accord
: ing to the New York Sun. Il used tc
wonder how all the opticians made q
living, there were 60 many Of them.
It seemed to me that If all creation was
blind, it wouldn't be enough to supply
them all with business. But now ]
know.
when first put on glasses I said
to myself: Well, that's done, I've got
my glasses and supposed that's all
there was to it. thought that in five
or ten years or so I'd get my eyes ex-
amined over again, and maybe have to
buy another pair, but that in the mean
time I should be under no further ex.
pense.
But as a matter Of fact, I smashed
my first pair of glasses the day after
got them, and I break my glasses on
an average now about II times a
year. had thought that my optician
and l would be comparative strangers.
I should see him SO seldom; but actually
I see him often.
1 am q regular customer, ana In
stead of being comparative strangers,
we are really well acquainted, and
friends. I certainly couldn't get along
without him, and / don't suppose he
could get along without me.
"And that accounts for the opticians
prosperity. 1t isn't the original num-
Der of glasses he sells, but it is the num-
Der Of the renewals and repairs he
makes that keeps him going and makes
him rich: and when look at it in
this light and reflect that while per-
haps not more than one person in ten
wears glasses, yet In effect his customers
number more than all creation, why.
my wonder is not that there are SO
many opticians, but that there are not
more"

TREES. OF MANY FRUITS.
How a Small Lot Was Made tc Yield
Many Varieties Of Luscious
Fruits.

Many people who live on city lots
long for fruit trees OF their own from
which they can gather fresh fruit in.
stead of being dependent on the mar
kets, but owing to cramped garden area
they feel that an orchard is an impos.
sibility. Mr.. Vaughn, Of Pasadena,
was confronted by just such prou!em,
but he has cleverly found wa, out
of the difficulty. On the back of his
town lot he had room for six fruit tees.
He planted naval oranges and peaches
and plums, and when they had become
strong and sturdy he grated and
budded other varieties into them. The
operations were all successful, and now
Mr.. Vaughn has numerous varieties Of
fruit that ripen at all times OF the year
and furnish an abundance for table use.
On one naval orange tree Mr.: Vaughn
budded q tangerine, grape fruit, .
lemon and q blood orange. making, with
the naval orange itself, five kinds Of
fruit on one tree. They all bear pro-
fusely, and the fruit is Of extraordinar.
lily large size. The peach trees were
budded with numerous varieties of ear.
y and late peaches, as we'll as apricots
and nectarines. These trees bear from
July to November II. The plum trees
have been induced to produce many
kinds Of plums. II all the fruit raised
from these six trees came from indivad-
ual trees of their own kind, it would
take a five acre ranch tn accommodate
them.-Country Life in America.

land and Gradually Working -.
1ts Way West.

A little over seven years ago the
brown tail moth, an insect pest which
has :tormented the horticulturists Of
Europe for generations, probably for
centuries, was introduced into this
country. 1t first made its appearance
In >Somerville, eastern Massachusetts,.
and during the seven years the entire
northeastern part of the state has been
infested, the pest has crossed into
Maine and New Hampshire, and speci-
mems have been found as far distant
as st. John, N. B.
The brown tail moth Is q snow white
insect, with gold or brown tips, which
give it its name. Its eggs, laid on the
leaves of fruit trees, are Matched in the
late summer, and soon a multitude Of
tiny caterpillars are to be found de-
vouring the tender foliage. AS winter
approaches, the caterpillars construct
heavy webs, into which they withdraw
when cold weather arrives. and where
they hibernate until spring, when they
burst forth to complete their growth
at the expense of bud, blossom and leaf:
In June they bring their destructive
careers to an end, and a. few weeks
later another army Of moths energies
from the cocoons, ready to take up the
work of devastation.
The pest was brought across the water
upon some plants imported by florist.
It made itself at home Immediately and
