The Milk of the Coconut

"Husking Il coconut is one of The
simplest looking operations in the
world. but have not yet seen the
white man who could do it effective.

book, In the Strange South Seas"
Every native of Tahiti is apparently
born with the trick.
A stick is sharply pointed at both
ends, and one end is firmly set in the
ground. The nut is then taken in
the hands and struck with hitting
and tearing movement combined on
the point of the stick, so as to split
the thick, intensely tough covering of
dense coir fibre that protects the nut.
The nut comes forth white as ivory.
about the same shape and size as the
brown old nuts that go by ship to
England and America, but much
younger and more tender, for only
the smallest of the old nuts. which
are not wanted il the islands for CO.
pra making, are generally exported.
A large knife is used to crack the
top OF the nut all round. like an egg
shell, and the drink is ready, draft
OF pure water, slightly sweet and Just
4 little aerated. ii the nut has been
plucked at the right stage.
There is no pleasanter or more re-
freshing draught III the world. and il
has not the least likeness to the
milk" contained in the coconuts of
commerce. No native would drink
from old nuts, for fear of illness, as
they are considered both unpleasant
and unwholesome. Only the milk of
half g:own nuts is used for drinking.
and even these will sometimes hold a
couple of pints of liquid.
The water of the young coconut is
food and drink in one, having much
nourishings matter held in solution.
On many a long day of hot and weary
travel l had cause to bless the re-
freshing and restoring powers of
