while he is conservative in the ex-

THE DRINK CALLED COFFEE.
Here Is the Way They Made II In the
Seventeenth Century.

There are in existence In Great
Britain a few copies of an ancient
cookbook, published in 1862, that gives
what is perhaps the first English rec
ipe for coffee. The recipe reads:
ITO make the drink that is now
much used. called coffee.
"The coffee berries are to be bought
at any Druggist, about seven shtllings
the pound. Take what quantity you
please, and over a charcoal fire, In an
old frying pan. keep them always STIR
ring until they be quite black. and
when you crack one with your teeth
that II is black within as 1t is without,
yet If you exceed. then do you waste
the Oyl, and If less, then will 1t not de-
liver its Oyl. and If you should con-
tinue fire till It be white it will then
make no coffee, but only give you Its
salt. Beat and force through lawn
sieve.
Take clear water and boil one-third
of it away, and it is fit for use. Take
one quart of this prepared water, put
in it one ounce of your prepared cot
fee and boil 1t gently one hour. and II
is fit for your use; drink one-quarteI

Legislative Notes.

1t is hard proposition for a man
who is frequently spoken of as our next
governor to be member of the House.
1t is still harder for him to make politi-
cal assets from any of his actions. In
the two great fights of the session Mr..
Fletcher was found with the majority in
the railroad fight and with the minority
in the intangible tax fight. He stated
on the floor Of the House that he voted
for the Boston 4 Maine bill because an
impartial committee had spent weeks in
an investigation and had reported al
most unanimously in its favor. On the
tax measure his position is of great i'm
portance to the people, especially when
the present Governor has vetoed it and
the coming Governor might veto it. In
view of the interest taken in tax reform
by the people at large | took advantage
of the recess late Saturday night to ask
MIR. Fletcher fully as to his position. He
had opposed the bill on the floor Of the
House because there had been only
twenty-four hours in which to consider
it. 1t had come from his committee
without recommendation because he
did not care to injure the cause by an
adverse report. He stated on the floor
that the bill if passed should also carry
a provision abolishing offsets. During
the interview he stated squarely that he
would favor a bill placing small flai

History Made PaIatabIe,

Joseph Salvador, the French histo-
rian, and Jules Sandeau. a novelist,
made their meeting at a public recep-
ton the occasion for dispute as to
the respective places which they occu.
pied in the world of letters.
"The reading of history is like pill
1T needs the sugar coating to make it
palatable," argued the novelist.
"Ah, but it Is the ingredient which
cures, not the coating" remarked the
historian.
Then let us divide honors," said
Sandeau, "for If 1t were not for my
sugar coating your historical facts
would dry on the Shelves"

ToIstov's Intensity

Everything in Tolstoy's character
says Russian writer, attains titanic
proportions. "As drinker he absorbed
fantastic quantities of liquor. As a
gambler he terrified his partners by
the boldness of his play. AS soldier
he advanced gayly to bastion four, the
bastion of death at Sevastopol, and
there he made dying men laugh at his
witty sayings. He surpassed every
one by his prodigious activity in sport
as we'll as in literature"
