HOW TO MAKE COFFEE.
The coffee trade, having become
dissatisfied with the long-in-use rule-of-thumb
method of making coffee,
has .employed 1'ro.f. Prescott of the
Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology to gather around him a group
of scientists and proceed to throw
such light as he and his associates
could on the coffee question.
They are beginning to report,
The report from which this article
is drawn deals with the question.
"How to Make a Cuo of Coffee r
As to the water to be used, they
have little to say. Their work was
was done in Boston, and the waters
they used were such as are easily
ML- At . L 1
avatiiDic mere ior ine nuujcwuc
Thrv suggest that it might be dif
ferent if the water was very hard or
alkaline, or was heavily flavored by
chlorine or alum pr iron. The tem
peratures of the water when, the
coffee was added was very im
portant.
I hey sav cotlee snouid not ne
boiled. When ' the aroma of the
coffee in the making is smelled all
over the house but little of it is found
in the coffee cup.
The instruction is to bring the
water to a boil, then to remove the
pot from the fire for a few moments
and after that to add the coffee.
Prolonged seeping in the hot
water is not reauirea. Two minutes
of heat, short of boiling, will extract
all the caffein and oil that should be
extracted. ...
Drip cottee is an ngnr. so is per
colated coffee provided superheat
a
ing and overseepmg is guaraea
against. Ordinary boiled coffee: is all
right, provided it is not boiled.
It is true that the raetnod ot ar
riving at a conclusion was to sub
mit samnles of different brews to
Croups of people and to average or
otherwise connote . their opinions
The New Orleans man might not
think much of the taste for coffee of
the Boston man. and vice versa, but
what better method is there?
The outstanding feature of this
part of the advice is that in making
boiled coffee at no time after the toi
fee is added is the water to boil. Also
that too much cooking is worse than
too little. '
Coffee that will not clear has been
cooked too much.
If the mixture foams vigorously
when the coffee is added, the water
is too hot.
As to the material from which the
coffee pot is made, they have- a few
words to say:
' Coffee is best when it has been
brewed in a glass or earthern pot. If
the brew comes in contact with any
metal, it absorbs some taste fromathe
metal.
The aroma of coffee is due to oils
which are highly volatile. There
fore, coffee should be kept in tightly
closed packages. - ,
When coffee has lost most of its
aroma, the flavor can be revived by
heating, but this merely .. liberates
some oil, hitherto found in the bean,
and such oil is rather rapidly lost by
evaporation.,
Unless roasted coffee has been
properly kept, it is not possible to
make a good cup of coffee from it.
Physiological studies on caffein oil,
aromatics and other ingredients of
coffee are promised. Let us hope they
will be comprehensive and continued
long enough to parallel conditions of
use.
Those Chapped Hands.
M. ,W. Writes: "Being always a
victim of chapped cuticles, I would
iikt to know if there is any remedy
tor it.
"I have had this condition for
about two years, and have never suc
ceeded in remedying it. W hat would
you advise?''
REPLY.
Why not say "skin?" That's the
way wt plain people talk. Why not
say "skin on my hands.' I hen I
would have the necessary informa
tn. Chapping of the hands sen
erally results from too little grease
in the skin.
To remedy this use plenty of clean
grease on your hands.
Wear rubber gloves when working
in water.
Wear loose, warm gloves at other
times.
Keep your hands out of water.
dirty grease, and dirt in general.
Ha Must Bt Examined.
Mrs. M. S. writes: "My brother,
who is i, nas been employed in a
felt factory for more than a year.
Before he started there he was
husky and healthy, but since he has
lost weight and is very thin almost
bony.
"He perspires so at night that the
mattress soaks through.
"My mother died of tuberculosis.
"Does he show symptoms of hav
ing it? He says his chest is sore and
his sides hurt. A short time ago he
had a very severe cold and couldn't
talk just whispered."

Farmer Boyi Fined When
-Truck Goei into Ditch
Jack Herlck and M. W. Marks,
two unsophisticated farmer boys of
Chalco, loaded two calves into a
truck and drove to South Omha and
sold them Monday. But they didn t
o straight home with the money,
londay night they were found by
Officer L. M. Anderson at the en
trance to Riverview park, trying to
get their truck out of a ditch.
He arrested them and in South
Side court they were charged with
being drunk and driving recklessly.
The judge fined them $12.50 each.
They telephoned to the farm for the
money and expressed a decided long,
ing to be back among the cows and
chickens.
