A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

WHAT WE DRINK.

Clara Francis, In tne Praise Farmer.

Eminent physicians unite in tbeopin ion that coffee is delererious to bealUi that "both tea and coffee not only roin the stomach, bat seriously derange the health of the brain and nervous sys tern tbey pronounce "dyspepsia, nervons and sick headache, heart disease, paralysis, epilepsy, neuralgia, etc. the legitimate and certain fruit of these narcotic stimulants."

Taking this view of the case, the ar tistic combination of peanuts, sweet po tatoes, oats, barley, bread-crumbs, ex hausted coffee-grounds, chiccory and what not, might be considered a happy substitute for the more palatable but injurious coffee bean. The public fail to consider it so, especially when they find themselves being swindled into pur chasing a mixture of these very inex pensive articles under the supposition that it is genuine coffee. Such an iin mense field tor dishonesty and fraud and such an extensive occupation ol it. has shattered the last vestige or laith in ground coffe, and people purchase the berry whole, thinking fhat even it it was roasted there could not-be the ghost of a chance for imposition. Tbe dear public forget to take into consideration that there is scarcely an emergency without its corresponding man. Just when tbe wily scitemers found their profits dwindling to a level with those of honest tradesmen, this ubiquitous persodage invented a method of pressing finely ground obiccory and other foreign substances into tbe tbape of coffee beans. These when roasted, bear every ap pearance of beiog genuiae, and profits are again on the increase.

AMonlshmeut is growing to be the normal condition of our existence. Scarcely a day parses tbat does not reveal some new and startling dis covery a wonderment that covers our faces inches deep with surprise, from which we emerge only to go again into eclipse over a tresb amazement. Tbe columns of a New York paper furnish the latest, which is tbe fact, that there are persons calling themselves men, who are engaged ia the nefarious trade of manufacturing an imitation of coffee beans out ol clay moistened with extract of chioccry, a certain portion of which tbey palm off with every pound of coffee that tbey sell. Housekeepers who have thought to obtain pure coffee and avoid tbe trouble of browning it at home, will discover that they are still liable to imposition of the grossest character. The only alternative is to buy green coffee, and it is an excellent one.

Water is no doubt the best drink and the one which providence intended for us, but meu as well as women are perversa and do not always consider their welfare paramount to their wishes hence, notwithstanding the immense amount of admonition and advice on the subject, both coffee and tea are the accustomed household beverages. There are many with whom these drinks disagree to such an extent as to render their use impossible, and others who indulge in them to such an excess as to produce serious consequences. The moderate use of ooflee will not be likely to injure the majority of people, but there is a wide difference of opinion as to what moderation consists in. Certainly not in the drinking of strong coffee three times a day. When one becomes so de pendent on its stimulating qualities as to feel languid and listless, or bo unable to enjoy a meal when deprived of it, there can be no surer indication that the bounds of moderation are being transgressed.

Coffee is an established and prominent feature of the breakfast table. If persons will coutlne themselves at that meal to a single cup, ot ordinary strength, and desist from all lurther use of tne beverage during that day, excepi It may be ou rare occasions, it would be safe to say that a lifetime would furuish no evidence of pernicious results in a naturally healthy constitution. It is not so much in tbe use of coffee that the evil lies as it is in the abuse of it.

There area vailety of opinions in re-

§rink.toProf.

ard the brewing oi this popular Blot, in his lectures, pronouuoed very decidedly in favor ot filtered coffee, and considered that which had boiled, even for an instant, as completely spoiled. Of course, we were readv to be convinced that a French filter was the only coffee-pot In whieh coffee could be made in perfection, but after carefully experimenting, must give preference to the old-fashioned method, and it is certainly a more economical one. Not that we would wish to be understood recommending the practice of boiling coffee until the aroma is totally evaporated, leaving only an unpalatable and bitter decoctiou. The "old-fashioned method" to which wo refer, establishes rules which, it carefully observed will invariably result in tbe most transparent, fragrant and delicious.

COFFEE.

Use Mocha and Java, one-third of the former and two-thirds of the latter, or, it preferred, mix them in equal proportions, They should be roasted separately, asom* variety browns more readily than the other, and should be apt to burn, before the whole could be com-

fnjure

rioted. A few scorched grains would the flavor and aroma. Java is the strongest, but lacks the richness of Mocha the latter lacks strength the two combined are all one could desire. Persons who are very particular will brown thoir berries as they need them and use them while still hot, and will feel compensated for the trouble by the very perfection of ooffee.

The majority will be satisfied to sacrifice a modicum of flavor to convenience, and will prepare sufficient atone time to last two or three days. When brown, and while still warm, stir In an egg this •will form a coating over the berries and prevent the toes of strength and flavor. Grind tbecoflfee(not too fine)jnat when it is to be used in the meantime keep it In glass j*i with a tight fitting cover.

The ooffee poi£ be as bright and clean on the insidfe as boiling water can make it. One in which cold coffee has been left standing, or that has been put away without thorough scalding and drying after each and every occasion of use, will invariably destroy the exquisite flavor which we are striving to preserve.

Mix bait a pint of ground coffee with half an egg—be sure to take half the yolk as well as half tbe white—when these are well incorporated add two tablespoons of cold water, and stir all together thoroughly. Put tbe prepared coffee Into the coffee pot, that has been fit! uly scalded, and is hot. Pour in a qu-it of boiling water gradually to the coffee, stirring it meauwbile. (It Ls

gWgim

better, in preparing both tea and coffee, to use tbe water at tbe first boiling.) Cover tight, sud set the coffs© Dot where it will come slowly to the boiling point the instant it reaches it, raise tbe oover, stir down the grounds let it boil for one minute tl place at the back of the stove wnere it will keep hot, but by no means allow it to boil. In ten minutes it will be nicely settled, and should be served with good rich cream and loaf augar. New milk, scalded, may be made to answer, but it ia not to be compared with cream. ..

FKOTHKD CAFE AU LAIT.

Make the oiffee as directed, but considerably stronger. Pour it through a muslin strainer, and add an equal quantity of thin cream and rich milk, scalding hot. Beat the whites of two eggs to a stiff froth, and whip half a teacupful of double cream until it will not run. Mix the eggs and cream lightly together, adding a very little powdered sugar. Place a tablespoonful of this mixture ou each cup of coffee after it is poured out.

COFFEE WITH WHirPKD CREAM,

Whip a pint of cream skim off tbe froth, and, after draining it on a sieve, place it in a small pitcher and set it in a cool plaoe. Heat the balance of the cream and serve with tbe ooffee, as before directed place a heapiug tablespoonful of the whipped cream on tbe surface of each cup.

WOMEN EYEING WOMEN. The eyeing of women by women is one of the most offensive manifestations of superciliousness now to be met with in society. Few observant persons can have failed to notice the manner in which one woman, who is not perfectly well-bred or perfectly ki'ud-hearted, will eye another woman whom she thinks is not in such good society, and, above all, not at the time in so costly a dress as she herself is in. It is none everywhere at parties, at church, in the street. It is done by women in all conditions of life. Tbe very servant girls learn it of their mistresses. It is done in an instant. Who cannot recall hundreds of instances of that sweep of the eye which takes in at a glance the whole woman, and what she has on, from top knot to sboetie? Meu are never guilty of it, cr, with such extreme rarity, and then in such feeble and smali-souled specimens of their sex, that it may bo set down as a sin not masculine, or at least epicine, But women of sense, of some breeding, and even of some kindness of nature, will thus endeavor to assert a superiority upon the meanest of all pretences and infiict a wound in a manner tbe most cowardly, because it cannot be re sented and admits of no retort. If tbey but only knew how unlovely, how positively offensive they make themselves in ro doing, not only to their silent victims, but to every generous-hearted man who observes their manooeuvres, they would give up a triumph at once so mean and so cruel which is obtained at such a sacrifice on their part. No other evidence than this eyeing is needed, that a woman, whatever be ber birth or breeding, nas a small and vulgar soul.

SAY WHAT YuU MEAN. Let your friends know that you love them. Do not keep the alabaster boxes of your love and tenderness sealed up until your friends are dead. Fill their lives with sweetness. Speak approving, cheering words while their ears can hear tbem, and while their hearts can be thrilled by them. The things you mean to say when they are gone say before tbey go. The flowers you mean to send for their coffins send to brighten and sweeten their homes before they leave tbem. If my friends have alabaster boxes laid away, full of perfumes of sympathy and affection, which they intend to break over my dead body, I would rather they would bring them out in my wearv hours, and open them, that I may be refreshed and cheered by them while I need them. I would rather have a-bare coffin without a flower, and a funeral without an eulogy, than a life without the sweetness of love and sympathy. Let us learn to annoint our friends beforehand for their burial. Post mortem kindnesses do not cheer the burdened 'spirit. Flowers on the coffin cast no fragrance backward over the weary daj'9 of our lives.

A SOCIAL TAX.

It is bad enough to to obliged to make calls at all, without listening to reproaches for neglecting one's duty in thi* particular. What good is achieved by spending fifteen minutes twice or thrice a year with people for whom we have no special adaptation or liking to whom we grow no nearer during a life time with whom we have only time to touch upon tbe weather, the fashions, the servants, or other trivialities who neither interest, amuse, nor instruct us? Then, when we make the effort, how exsperating to be received by our hostess lth an injured air, and the remaik:

You have been" out of town a great deal lately, have you not?" or, worse stilt, assuming a frigidly polite attitude, she impresses you with a seuse of neglected social duties. These congenial calls must be made occasionally, even though tbey are among the most-unsat-isfactory duties of civilized life, and a bore to visitor and hostess.

DINNER TABLE HUMOR. Forneys* Progress. A cbamllng lady of this city, wlio gives pleasant little dinners, has a bell arranged beneath the table at her side, and when the servant is needed she has only to push npon the spring and the bell sounds in the kitchen below. The other evening, at one of these dinners, the husband said, as a mere matter of oourse, "Mv dear, please pot your foot on tbe bell.*' After the servant had appeared and disappeared, a gentleman tesent laughed loud and heartily, rested for his reason, be said: "Well, at home we have a bell in tbe dining room, bnt it ls on the table, and when you asked your wife to put her foot on the bell, why really for the moment tbe idea was so absurd." No further explanation was required.

To keep mosquitoes away, dip a piece of sponge or flannel in camphorated spirits, and make it fast to tbe top of the bedstead. A decoction of pennyroyal or seme of tbe bruised leaves, will effectually keep off tbe troublesome insects. To clear a room of tbem, take of gam camphor a piece about one-third the size of an etg, and evaporate it by placing it in a tin vessel and holding ft over a lamp or candle, taking care that it does not ignite. The smoke will very soon fill the room and expel the mosquitoes.

Fftl* Yeaag Agala.

"My mother was afflicted along time with Neuralgia and a dull, heavy inactive condition of tbe whole system headache, nerrotu prostration, and was almost helpless. No physicians or medicines did her any good. Three months ago she began to use Hop Bitters, with such good effect that she seems and feels young again, although over 70 years old. We think there is no other medicine fit to use in the family,"—A lady, in Providence, R. I.
