TO GET BEST OUT OF COFFEE
Method Of Preparation Has Much to
Do With Success In This I'M
portant Matter. :

There are two points necessary in
getting the best out of coffee. One
Is, of course, to get all that is good.
The other Is not to get what is bad.
The best preparation of coffee ex.
tracts the aromatic oils and eliminates
coffee.tannin to practically nothing.
In the first place the housewife
must see to it that her coffee is finely
ground. But, having had it practical.
ly pulverized, she must be careful
that 1t is quickly used or confined in
air-proof, moisture-proof jars, other
wise the oil will escape into the air
and will absorb moisture.
In the actual preparation of the
beverage, however, the important
thing is to brew the coffee. "Brewed"
coffee is not Cooked" In the process
of brewing the oils are extracted
from the fibrous tissue, whereas when
coffee is boiled or cooked" the fiber
Is stewed in and the flavor and purity
of the liquid is damaged. The water
must be boiled; the coffee must not.
Water at the boiling point should be
poured on the coffee. but It should
not stand too long, and 1t should not
get chilled.
The elimination Of the coffee.tannin
Is best brought about in the filtration
or drip method of preparing coffee.
When brewed in this way the coffee
contains only .29 of grain of coffee
tannin per cup, as against 2.9O grains

lator method.

USING BREAD CRUMBS
COOKING ECONOMY WELL WORTH
HEEDING.
Odd Pieces Should Always Be saver
and Made Use Of In Ono Way or
Another-some Ways Of EN-.
pIoylng Them.

Waste in the kitchen amounts al.
most to sin In these days when the
price Of food is high and money is
scarce In most households. Yet waste
goes on every day In the average
kitchen-waste that could very easily
be curtailed II. the housewife used
economical methods. A good many
home cooks honestly believe that they
are practicing the most rigid economy
In their homes, when all the time odd
pieces of bread, left-overs of meat,
vegetables and sweets are thrown
away, regardless of the fact that they
could be used again.
Perhaps more waste takes place
with bread than with any other one
staple in the kitchen. Every bit of
bread should be saved and made use
OF in one way or another. This rule
need not conjure up dreary vista Of
stale crust munching, however. The
housewives toast must still be crisp
and toothsome, her afternoon tea
slices as fresh and thin as ever; but
1t Is In the use of unused scraps of
bread, stale toast, ends of loaves,
crusts cut from bread and toast that
the housekeeper can show her eco
nomical skill. All these scraps-the
waits and strays of the bread jar
should be looked over every morning
and assigned definite duties.
The days needs will first be dealt
with, the crumbs or croutons required
sorted out and put to one side. Every
unwanted scrap should then be cut
into fairly uniform squares, placed in
baking dish and baked carefully In
slow oven to delicate golden
brown shade. Care should be taken
to carry out these instructions to the
letter. The crumbs must be baked
carefully and in a slow oven IL one
wishes to have them in any condition
fit for use. Too often has the house
wife thrust her crumbs into a hot
oven, forgotten them for a few min
utes. then pulled them out only to
find a black mass of charred re-
mains 'of what once was a dish Of
bread crumbs. It is a wise idea to
leave the oven door ajar; in this way
the first sign of burning is detected.
To test the proper baking OF these
leftover pieces of bread, break one
OF the thickest pieces; II 1t snaps
crisply, the bread is ready to be taken
from the oven. With a rolling pin
and baking board the bread can easily
be crushed into fine crumbs and may
be sifted afterward II uniform fine
ness is desired. Some busy cooks put
the baked crusts through a mincing
machine with good results. The
bread should be reduced to crumbs
the moment 1t is baked, for IL left ly-
Ing about the moisture In the air will
be absorbed and the crispness is lost.
Many cooks enjoy the sensation of
crunching their golden crumbs.
Visions OF brown coated outlets, gold
en- croquettes and savory fishballs
float before their eyes during the op-
Grafton, for the crumbs can be used
for all these purposes and many more
besides.

TEW YORK has too much civil
cation, too many chaperons
and not enough romance. The
first loads us with useless Gus
toms and Intellectual laws. The
second robs us of "palship' between
the sexes. The third causes a fever
ish rushing about after any and every
diversion which momentarily feeds the
soul and senses. But Yukon way, it's
different. People live only In the
things that count-courage, work, love
human sympathy. And there is lots
of 1t going begging, especially love.
So declares Mrs. Robert II. Pierson,
wife of a captain in the medical corps
OF the United States army, who has
lately returned from Alaska to east
ern civilization. She spent two years
at Fort Gibbon, post so near the arc

Mrs. Pierson, "but Alaska has so
