The Secret of Good Coffee Even the best housekeepers cannot make a good cup of coffee without good material. Dirty, adulterated and queerly ■ blended coffee such as unscrupulous dealers shovel over their counters won’t do. But take the pure, clean, natural flavored LION COFFEE, e leader of all package coffees— I ; the coffee that for over a quarter of a century has been daily welcomed in millions of homes—and you will make a drink fit for a king in this way: HOW TO MAKE GOOD COFFEE. Use LION COFFEE, because to get best results you must use the best coffee. Grind your LION COFFEE rather fine. Use "a tablespoonful to each cup, and one extra for the pot.” First mix it with a little cold water, enough to make a thick paste, and add white of an egg (if egg is to be used as a settler), then follow one of the following rules: Ist. WITH BOILING WATER. Add boiling water, and let It boil THREE MINUTES ONLY. Add a little cold water and set aside live minutes to settle. Serve promptly. 2d. WITH COLD WATER. Add your cold water to tbe paste and bring it to a boil. Then set aside, add a little cold water, and in live minutes It’s ready to serve. Q (Don’t boll It too long'. " < Don’t lot it stand more than ten minutes before serving. DONTS (Don’t use water that has been boiled before. TWO WAYS TO SETTLE COFFEE. let With Eggs. Use part of the white of an egg, mixing it with the ground LION COFFEE before boiling. '-d. With Cold Water instead of eggs. After boiling add a dash of cold water, and set aside for eight or ten minutes, then serve through a strainer. Insist on getting a package of genuine LION COFFEE, prepare it according to this recipe and you will only use LION COFFEE in future. (Sold only in 1 lb. sealed packages.)

Effects of Prosperity.

In tbe six years of the country’s greatest prosperity, from 1897 to 1903, average prices of breadstuffs advanced 65 per cent., meats 23.1 per cent, dairy ami garden products 50.1 per cent and clothing 24.1. All these were products of the farmer and stockman who profited more than ony other class of the community by these advances. The miner benefited 42.1 per cent by that advance in the average price of metals. The only decrease in the average prices of commodities in that period was in railway freights, which decreased from .798 per ton-inile in 1597 to .763 in 1903, a loss of 4.4 per cent. The report of the Interstate Commerce Commission shows that the average increase in the pay of railroad employes in that period was a trifle above 8.5 per cent, •

The province of Concepcion declared itself free and independent of Chile.

Fifty Years Ago. French and Russians contended fiercely for the rifle pits which the latter had established between the French advance and Mamelon. Recruiting stations for enlisting men in the British army were discovered in New York and Philadelphia.

President Lincoln Issued a proclamation ordering the arrest and punishment by court martial of all persons supplying arms and ammunition to the hostile Indians. A breach had occurred between Emperor Maximilian of Mexico and the Roman Catholic Church.

A 480-ACRE FARM YIELDS 25 PER CENT PROFIT IN A YEAR.

What a Mercer County (Ohio) Farmer Received from One Year’s Crop. Extracts from an interesting letter from P. H. Rynhard, of Starbuck, Manitoba, Canada, gives an excellent Idea of the prosperity of those who have gone from the United States to Canada. He says: “I bought, August, 1903, 480 acres of land, paying $12,000 for it. We threshed 2,973 bushels of wheat and between 1,200 and 1,300 bushels of oats and barley from 200 acres. But part of the wheat went down before filling and was not harvested except for hay. The crop was worth at threshing time $3,000. Besides 120 acres laying Idle except a timothy meadow which is not included in this estimate. Counting the value of the product and the increase of value of land will pay me more than 25 per cent on the investment. Two brothers in the same neighborhood bought 160 acres each six years ago. They have not done a single thing to this land except to fence it and break ami cultivate about onehalf of it. Harvested last year 28 bushels wheat per acre. This year 27 bushels per acre. They can get any day $25 per acre. These are only a few of many hundreds of such chances. It looks like boasting, but truth is justifiable and the world ought to know it, especially the home-seeker. I know of quite a few farmers that have made fortunes in from 10 ttr*2b years, retired with from $20,000* to SIOO,OOO. Writing concerning another district in the Canadian West, S. L. Short says: “Dear Sir—l have to inform you that I have just returned from the Oarrot river country in Saskatchewan, where I located land of the very finest black vegetable loam, which I am proud of, and will move in the spring. Farmers are still plowing there. A mild climate and beautiful country to behold. Cattle are fat and running 1 outside. Wood and water good. Saw oats weighing 42 pounds to bushel. Potatoes large and well ripened; also wheat that brought there 82 cents. Ths country exceeded my expectations. Saw oats In stook, thicker on the ground than appears in many of the illustrations sent out in descriptive pamphlets. I have been in many Western States, but the soil excels any I ever saw.” The Canadian Government Agents at different points report that the inquiries for literature and railroad rates, etc., to Western Canada are tbe greatest in the history of their work.
