Making Good Coffee.

To make a really good cup of coffee
is a fine art. and really very seldom
does one get good coffee either in a
private house or restaurant
To begin with genuine coffee is not
often found and is not sold by every
grocer, and the best. therefore, that can
be procured from reliable grocer IS
none too good.
In France. particularly IN Paris, good
coffee is made. for there breakfast con-
sists Of coffee and rolls. and when a
meal is minimized thus. of course, the
best ingredients are called for.
1t Is not necessary to buy a French
coffee pot. however. IN order to make
satisfactory coffee. although the coffee
pot which contains "a muslin straincr in
side is the best for this purpose.
Put the amount of coffee needed into
this muslin bag or strainer and pour
as many cups OF boiling water as you
require of coffee with one extra Gun
FOR the pot over the coffee very
slowly.
MOcha-and Java mixed are generally
considered the best brand Of coffee. and
70: plain cafe nOir 20 which cream is
added the general proportion is a level
tablespoonful for each cup.
For cafe au lait use two heaping des-
scTt spoonfuls Of coffee 20 each break
fast cup. and afterward use equal por-
tons Of boiling milk and coffee The
mix should be brought slowly TO boil
inS point. but must on no account be
allowed 10 boil.

Queer Phenomena of Falling Bodies.

am unable to say who first noticed
the peculiar caprices of a stone or 9th
er heavy body dropped from tie top
of a high tower, but it is nevertheless
a curious fact that such objects invari-
ably fall slightly to the east Of the per-
pendicular line. Persons of inquiring
turn of mind who ask why this is as it
is may find an answer in the following:
All falling bodies partake of the earth's
eastward motion to a greater or lesser
extent. Therefore during the time oc-
cupied by a stone in falling from the
top of a high tower or other eminence
the earth's rotary motion has carried
it an appreciable distance to the east.
The initial impetus of the stone has
carried it to the eastward also, there
fore it strikes the earth to the east Of
the perpendicular, varying in degree
according to the height from which it
has fallen.-Exchange.

Twenty-Five sacks of wheat, contain
ing four bushels each, q total of one
hundred bushels, were shipped to
Pierre on Monday, October II, billed
to G. B. Billinghurst, editor of the
Pierre Daily Dakotan, and q member
Of the Pierre board of Trade.-Aber-
deem American. V
This shipment was for the
Pierre -four mill, recently
started, after six years idle
ness, to make q showing to
visitors. The mill was only
operated six months after being
built, in 1898, because there was
no wheat grown in the vicinity
to keep it going. This is but
one Of the many tricks Pierre is
playing to deceive the people.

The luminous organ Of the glow
worn is a rounded area on the alb
domen, under which is a fatty sub
stance that gives out a phosphorescent
light as the result of slow chemical
change. We may regard this as a
'love light" which attracts the active
winged males during the hours of
darkness, for glowworms are Of noe
turnal habits. The eyes Of the male
are unusually large and we'll developed,
no doubt in order to help him in the
search for his shining but more slug
gish mate. In some other species, such
as the ~fireflies of south Europe, it is
the males which give out light, and
the reason for this is not clear. Pos
sibly it promotes rivalry in courtship,
and it has also been suggested that it
may serve as a means of amusement.

DOCTOR OF
This Title Was Given to -Beauchamps
by Louis XIV

by Louis XIV.
In France during the reign of Louis
XIV. dancing took a very prominent
position among court festivities, and
many members of the royal family
took part in the complex ballets of the
time. Louis himself. no mean perform
er, took lessons for twenty years from
Beauchamps, who was called the ia
Their of all dancing masters and upon
whom the king conferred the title doc
tor as a special mark of favor.
Beauchamps had the honor Of ap-
pearing rs partner with the king in the
minuet, a dance which was introduced
in 1850 in France. @and no court ball
was opened in Europe for a century
and a half without it.
About the year 1861 a royal acad-
envy of dancing was formed under the
auspices Of Beauchamps, Lulli, Moliere
and others, the object Of which was to

Do Birds Enjoy Their Own SinginEs

1t may well be doubted if birds are
musical cDnnoisseurs or have anything
like human appreciation of their own
or Of each others songs. My reason
for thinking SO is this: | have heard a
bobolink with a defective instrument
SO that it's song was broken and in
%articulate III parts, and yet it sang with
as much apparent joy and abandon as
any of it's fellows. | have also heard
a hermit thrush with a similar defect
or impeachment, and yet it, too, appear
ed to sing entirely to it's OWL satisfac-
ton. 1t would be very interesting to
know if these poor singers found mates
as readily as their more gifted broth
erS. If they did the Darwinian theory
of sexual selection" in such matters.
according to which the finer songster
would carry off the female, would fall
to the ground. Yet it is certain that it
is during the mating and breeding sea
son that these ''song combats" occur,
and the favor of the female would
seem to be the matter in dispute.
Whether or 10 it be expressive of
actual jealousy or rlvalry, we have no
other words to apply to it.-John Bur
roughs in Harper's Magazine.
