to comment on some work recently
completed at the Massachusetts, In
stitute OF Technology. After careful
experiments carried on over a period
| or three years, IL has been found that
properly made coffee is a safe stimu-
liant for adults.
Ihe most popular and satisfactory
method of preparing coffee is to use
the drip or filter method If you uss
an old-fashi9ped coffee pot place two
and half cups of fresh. clear water
In the pot and bring il to a boil. AZ

the stove and add three heaping or
five level tablespoons of ground cot

minutes. The coffee should be kept
very hot, but do not allow Ii 10 boil
Have ready the pot in which you are
to ser.s the coffee and which has
been well warmed. Pour the COFFEE
off the grounds, filtering it through
muslin cloth or paper filter into the
serving pot.
Use the grounds only once and keep
the coffee pot well secured
Another popular member of the
FAMILY of hot beverages is cocoa.

TT you are planning hearty lunch

an unusually appetizing flavor.

The children looked a little dubious
as to the attractiveness of the meal
suggested by Mother Fedwell, but, be-
ing good sports, they were willing, in
the language of Fatty and Grubby,
TO try anything once" and the train
lunch was great success.
Evening star., 1924-01-18

Great was the excitement among
the Fedwell children and their chums,
the Eatums and Slimkins. A special
week end trip had been planned by a
friend, who had invited them to her
beautiful country home, and their
tongues were wagging.
The note said we should have to
get lunch, on the train said Sally
Slimkins, eagerly, .'and that will
make 1t seem like long trip. Won't
1t be fun"
Just then Mother Fedwell came
slong, as she had a habit Of doing
when most needed.
Here's thought for you, chill
iren. that will make the journey
seem even more grown-up and I'M
portant: How many OF you know
how to order meal on the dining
car?"
'"Oh, everybody knows that" came
in voice of her own Florence. Don't
YOU know, mummy, that daddy says
TO be able to order dinner properly
is one OF the first proofs of an expe-
rienced man or woman of the world?"
The twins with Joyous whoops of
derision shouted: TOO much swank,
old girl! Too much swank,"
But whcE the tumult had subsided
Mother FedweII showed the children
that ordering food on a diner was a
different matter.
Now that we are getting back to
the more substantial portions that we
had before the war;" she said, ''the
old temptation to overeat while trav-
cling is again with us. OF course, the
change of scene and the pleasant eX-
Citement of q trip contribute in a very
natural way to increasing our appe-
fites, yet we must still be careful. not
to overdo the matter. Conditions
while we are travelling are quite diff
ferent from those at home, and the
shut-in air, the lack of physical rest
and relaxation and other unavoidable
circumstances sometimes offset the
good effects OF the change. And here

Author of the Farm Relief BILL
Prices of farm products have fall
len so far behind prices of other
commodities that the cOuntry's en-
tire agricultural structure is threat
cred.
1t is the purpose o. the farm re-
lief bill now in Congress to in
crease present prices of agricultural
commodities to u "ratio price"--that
rs, a. price on the general level with
the prices Of other commodities.
The bill creates an export commits
sion and an export corporation, with
capitai stock OF 5000, 0o0, coo to, be
subscribed by the United States.
II the commission finds that the
p,sysilinG4 domestic prica Of 2 farm
commodity is below the ratio price
77--as the result Of a surplus whieN
must be exported at prevailing low
foreign prices-the president is au-
tn or .zed to declare an emergency.
The commission will. then recon-
mend to the corporation the amount
Of the commodity it should pur-
chase at the ratio price, while the
president adjusts tariff rates or sets
an embargo to prevent an influx of
the comm odity in question from
abroad.
The corporation then sells the
commodity in the United States at
not iAessSe tAsn the ratio price, and
sells the surplus abroad at the high
est price obtainable:
n the corporation buys at the RAJ
tic price and sells At the lower ex-
p6ys price, it Is evident 4 loss will

will turn to substitutes, and the ST.
tuatiOn--with supAy increasing ana

Besides this, fixing the price OF
one commodity will affect many
others.
Take wheat as an example. If the
price of wheat is boosted and protec-
ted by an embargo, it will cost the
r.illers more to make -four
Then they, too, must put their
prices up--and we will need an en-
barge on foreign flour to protect
their industry.
If the price of wool should sink
below the so-called ratio" it would
BY boosted in the same way. Then
We would have to put an embargo
on imported suits, socks, evercoats
sweaters, Blankets, yarns and hun
died and~sne other commodities, to
protect our Manufacturers and mer-
chants.
Artificial price fixing has hen tried
as remedy for undesirable econo-
mic conditions almost since the dawn
of.. history-but it never yet has
worked.
Diocletian, emperor of Rome, /ro-
muigated his famous price edict in
S0f A. D., fixing a price for "provi-
sicns and other articles of CONNER
&C." History tells Us that "the eff
feet was disastrous; it brought
about disturbance of the food sup
ply; many traders were ruined, and
the .edict gradually fell into abey-
ance."
AS such plans 60, the McNary-
Haugen plan is probably as good as
IL can be. But any plan artifcally
t. stimulate prices is fundamentally
wrong and must result in eventual
failure so
