After-War Coffee.

People old enough to remember the
Civil war are able to recall the fact
that after the close Of that conflict 1t
was difficult and often impossible to
obtain coffee. Various substitutes were
used. such as parched rye. but one that
was commonly utilized In Washington
and many other cities WINS sweet pO-
tatoes. The latter were first roasted
and allowed to burn somewhat on the
outside. Then they were mashed In
water and boiled. Tire water was thus
transformed into coffee. by no means
so unpalatable as might be imagined.
Sugar In those days cost 20 cents
pound. But the sweet potato coffee
required no sugar. and 50 was an eco
nomical drink.
