Your Health
Your Nose

Your Nose
Defective drainage and ventila-
ton OF the upper air passages in the
nose is one of the factors causing
colds.
The normal healthy nasal pas
sages should be large enough to al
low free entrance of all the air re-
quired by a person in breathing,
whether at rest or during exertion.
In the latter case, fortunately, the
tissues have the power of contract
ing and thus making the passages
larger.
The inner wall Of each nasal pas
sage is the septum or partition and
is made of bone and cartilage. From
the outer wall of each passage pro-
ject two prominent, bony, curved
bodies, the turbinates.
These turl mate bodies are irres-
ular in size and shape. They add a
great deal to the surface owe which
the air passes. In them are partly
located the r of smell.
The ventilation or free passage of
air through the ose and in and out
of its cavities may be diminished or
destroyed by twists, curvatures, and
folding of the septum or by bony
or cartilaginous growths projecting
into these cavities, or by ov%ergrowth
of the adenoids or tumors or men,
branous thickness of some sort.
Such distractions in nasal venti-
lation prevent proper evaporation of
the mucus. Consequently this ac-
cumulates in masses and drops into
the throat or is blown out by the
person frequently.
These conditions produce all the
symptoms of a chronic cold and they
invite the onset of more acute all
ments from various infections.

coffee and the old-fashioned "pot on

| ground berry.
The most delicious. healthful and
in h end. economical coffee is made
with a pulverized berry by the drip
the There are specially con-
structed pots on the market but YOU
can construct your own. A wire
strainer four or five inches in diam
eter is lined with firm but not two
heavy, cotton cloth and placed over
an enamel or e~arthenware utensil
to drip.
Be sure that the water is boiling
hard before pouring through the
grounds. Be sure thai the utensil in
} which the coffee drips is as hot as
boiling water can make 1t before
using.
Be sure that the filter has been
thoroughly saturated with cold
water and the muslin is still wet be-
fore putting the pulverized coffee
in it. Be sure hat the coffee pot
that finally receives the finished cof-
fee is scalded and heated through.
Chilling spoils the infusion.
To make filtered coffee allow
tablespoon pulverized coffee for each
measuring cupful of boiling water.
Put the coffee in the filter and pour
the water through. Keep hot by
surrounding the pot with boiling
water. Four cups of boiling water
and four tablespoons of pulverized
coffee will make enough beverage to
serve six persons.
This Is not the rule for the very
strong after-dinner coffee served 10
"demitasse' cups. The water should
be freshly boiled and should not be
cooked after it reaches the hard
boil stage.
The care given the coffee utensils
greatly affects the beverage. The
pot in which the drink is made must
be carefully washed and thoroughly
scalded after each using. 1t should
be perfectly dry before putting away
This is equally true OF the pot used
for serving. The filter muslin
should be emptied and rinsed out in
clear cold water. Then put in cold
sterilized water in a covered glass
until needed. This sterilzed water
should be changed daily.
Never dry a filter muslin. Keep it
wet and use it wet. The strainer
should be washed, scalded and dried
after each using.
Coffe is more popular with men
than tea or chocolate and a cup or
perfect coffee with a sandwich or
cruller is ideal for a hostess to offer
an evening caller.
Perfect coffee adds much to the
dessert at dinner if the sweet is cake
or pastry. One crust custaroy pies
are specially good with coffee.
If you try the drip coffee the
change alone will be welcome n
