TUESDAY. DECEMBER 29. 1908. A COITEEMAKING METHOD. Eow To Be Sure of a Delicious Morning Cup -A Chocolate Variation. <tt the ways of coffeemaklng there is no «nd. Erery ho»*«»wtfe has her own pet theory as to the process, not to mention the many men who think their little recipe by far the best. First of ail. it Is important to know how to buy coffee, for when one has secured a really good mixture cf Ifoeka *»d Java. It matter* not so very much hew it is made. There are. of coarse, many grades of the "one-third Mocha and two-third* Jar*.'' ■which Is acknowledged to be the best ob tainable mixture, Xo one in these days of adul teration would dream of {retting the pure mixture at any pries or in any grade without special ef fort, if, Indeed, at all. About the only sure, way of securing good coffee and retring the same kind right along: Is to make the acquaintance of a wholesale dealer In coffee, or of some one who works for such a firm, and have him put up samples of various kinds. Then, having decided which is best suited to the family palate, purchase th« coffee in tightly covered tins weighing from ten to twenty pounds. One who has handled coffee for many years says that adulterations can be detected in several ways. The more common way la to press a sample of ground coffee in the palm of the hand, and it it contains chicory or some substance- besides pure coffee It will form into a little mass, the particles ■ticking: together. Another method of detecting the presence oX a substance other than coffee is to put a lirtlT ground coffee in a glass of dear co.d water. Cover the top of the glass and shake thorough If the coffee is pure, the water will remain almost clear and the grounds will float on th« surface. Pure coffee contains an oily substance whlcti prevents the grains from mixing with th« cold water. Adulteration* are not so protected, and soon color the water noticeably. This same autr.oritr gives as the correct way of making coffee a process whtch ie exactly like that of tea making:, with the exception that the coffee Is allowed to stand a little longer to steep. A coffee pot should be of white enamel inside, for it 1* of the greatest importance that the pot be Immaculate Piace a spoonful of the ground coffee In the pot and pour over ft two cups of boiling water: cover the spout of the coffee pot as well as the top, co as to keep In the steam and strength. Set on the back of the ranee, where it will keep ■warm, but cannot boil. Coffee made in this way does not require any egg to settle it, tor at the end of ten minutes It will be like amber; when poured Into the cup it has the delicious aroma ■which Is noticeable when one passes a place vf here coffee ts being made. The crime of serving "warmed over" coffee is a heinous one for housewives, as it is never palat able and really Injurious. If a quantity of coffee purchased, too small to make exchange practicable, pr >yes b»:ow the mark, do not mix It with some co id coffee In order to "use it up." It can - •! in making ice cream and Jellies end Mocha or ike. Left over coffee can also be utilized In this waj as -veil as for "Iced coffee." but care shoul 1 !•<? taken to M that the decoction Intended for ich purposes be poured at once from the I When ground! and liquid sleep together for hours, the coffee gets muddy In color and "dull" la taste. Another way of using op poor coffee Is to color star i. Cor erru window rirnperies and lace cur tains, owns Mrorp boUteg coffee instead ■:■' wara ->r in makh g the starch. This will preserve l.c rich color of ecru . • Pvt to return to the making of the beverage. Whatever method is used, the water should always be freshly boiip'i. A small granite tea kettle should be k^pt for the purpose of boiling the water for tea and coffee, find when it is not in use for this purpose It should be wiped dry. inside and out. and eet away. In this way one makes sure of fresh baHlng water. When one BM fl "drln coffee pot," a very clew and stror~ cup of coffee car. be made. Coffee v.' ;'-'p is to be u'ed in this way shou'.d be ground very fine, and a tittle more ihan cne-third of Mocha may be artd>~tl. This should be put into the cylinder or. top of the c.ff.-e pot, and the waiter poured slowly over it. If the coffee pot is not of the sort which has an alcohol lamp underneath, it should Stand in a <i: = h of boiling water while the coffee Qltera. ir, ordrr to retain th» correct iegree of heat. For years or.p hon'-^kr>epfr baa made- "coffee for two" in the following way. with satisfactory' re ■altß, ail for those who still prefer a boiled '■o!? ! < > there can be no better way: Into a clean pot pot a cheese -loth ba? containing a tablespoonfni of coffea for each person To this add an egriishpli and hall ■ cup of cold water.

Eggs are washed .' ira their contents are re- DKrved and the she!!? are paved for clfaring the coffee Over the coffee are poured two cups of hoalinu watf-r f«r each spoonful of coffee, the snout of the coffee pot 'which, by the way. Is very »noM and broad, so that it la easily cleaned) is rtuJTeti with a piece of paper nr .1 cork which has been whittled to fit the spout, and the contents of the pot is allowed to boil for about five minutes. One half ■ ccj> of oold water is ad.lrcl and the pot is ■el on the back of the range, where it is allowed to stand fir tea or fif**>«?n minutes Ir-. making pfrti^r t*»!» or coffee the pot Is scalded with boiMnt? water before putting In the leaves or grounds.

In one or Marion Crawford's Roman stories he rrfTr'ons a mflmlng cup mode by dissolving a little powdered chocolate in milk, and filling up the con with strons* coffee. This is a delicious change from the ordinary method, arid well worth a trial. HOL3EHOLD TALKJ The best way to cook oatmeal, according to a cooking beeseiker, is to cook it the day before, bo as to be sure to allow time enough. To on« capful of rolled oats allow half a teaspoonful of salt and two eojtfnbi of bolllns water. Pour the water directly upon the cereal, in the top of the double boiler. and allow ft to boll for five minutes over the full flame of the gas range. Then place the cover on the boSer and let the cereal steam for three or four nourss, or ionger. If possible.

New-Ti rk T'lbßiif ' If ta a hurry for pattarn. send un extra two-cent stamp and we win mail by inter postage In sealed envelope- It was the last day for the entrance examination* of the autumn terra at the A cade ay ci Music, and In the dingy common room of that Imperial institu tion many women, carrying portfolios-, were wait ing their turn to be called. Some were twitching with nervousness; others showed by their exhaust ed air that they had worked too hard to do them selves justice: a few seemed Indifferent; several wore confident smiles; all of them tried to appear unnaturally patient. At a wooden table In the cen tre of the floor a waxen faced spinster, with dyeU hair plastered on her shining forehead In the early Victorian fashion, sat making slow entries In a Urge account book. Sh<* wore a brown woollen spencer crossed over her chest, mits on her hands and a curious silk dress, which locked as though it had been made out of old umbrella covers. This Individual, who exercised an official capacity In the establishment, had. under a pair of inflamed eye brows, penetrating and slyly observant eyes. From long experience she was able to tell at a (lance those girls who would be likely to succeed and those who would Inevitably fail, even with talent, In the musical world. On the present occasion her attention was furtively expanded upon a group of three young candidates, who stood out from the rest a:. caught the single ray of sunlight which pierced tha dirty window. One was not more than seventeen— a fair Jewess of unusual beauty. She had removed her hat, and her waving hair, which fell below her waist, was k^pt in place by a pol ished steel SI let. Her cloth jacket was open at the neck and exposed a fine throat, encircled with Italian beads. Sne did not speak, but she had a habit of opening and shutting her mouth and show- Ing her «upe-b teeth. Next to her sat a small plump person of five or six and twenty, with a com mon nose, Impertinent blue eyes and an air of irre pressible vivacity; her feet moved, her hands played on some imaginary instrument, her head swayed In time to some Inaudible music; she seemed Ignorant of repose, although her tight bodice, cov ered with brooches and chains of initiation Jewels, mad» it hard for her to be as unrestrained In her attitude as her wand-ring gaze. She had stuck out her feet, which were shod In French kid boots. stitched with white, tasselled, and perched on ex aggerated heels. These she surveyed from time to time with great seriousness, because they were evi dently quite new. At other moments she cast a glance on her yellow gloves, stitched with black, reaching to the elbow. Now and again sha would hum over songs to herself In an Indolent, caressing voice, and she smiled pleasantly at her possibly future companions. The official lady who presided at the table made mental comments which were not entirely confident on the side of orthodoxy with 'regard to this vivacious student. The third in the croup was an angular though graceful girl, whose most striking charms were a delloate com plexion and a quantity of golden brown hair. A straw hat came so far over her eyes that one could scarcely see them, but the lower part of the face was eager, mobile and refined. While the hand some Jewess yawned and the other smiled and bummed, the angular girl clasped and unclasped her fingers, but remained otherwise as quiet as a peaceful sleeper. At the end of two hours an at tendant came to the door and called out: "Miss Fidelia Delorme for Mr. GaluppL" "M.ss Ada Anson for Mr. Baroml." "Miss Cecily Eusden for Mr. C'-imberbatch-" Tha angular girl flushed deeply at the scur.d of her name* pushed back h«r hat and showed, for the first time, her greatest attraction— a pair at very soft, very deep, very clear gray eyes. She fol lowed the attendant down several passages into a long narrow room where the eminent professor was pacing the floor, evidently exasperated by a tiresome afternoon. "What have you brought?" said he. feeling at once that there would be no platform success for the young creature. But he liked her countenance, her carriage, her modesty, and her fresh checks. ii.33 Easden produced the WokMMta Sonata, Cho pin s Impromptus, and a Nocturne by Field. "The Beethoven." he said, briefly. When she had finished half of the first move ment, he observed: "That will tio. You play too much with the brain. You must get more heart into It. I'll take you once a weeK this term, and you car. prepare ycrur work for me with my assistant. Mr. Audiey Mac- Aliister. You have heard of aim." \ea; she had heard of Mr. Audiey MacAUis-.er. Si.c knew one of his compositions. " "Amour sa-TS jittro.es,' ' suggc-sied the Prc'e«»' i r. •/ho was rather tired of his favorite pupil's popular success. "Everybody plays "Amour sans paroiea,' " he added, not without irony. By appointment, the following Saturday she went, I a.a with nervousir.es3, to Mr Audiey MacAiiidter. i ne -ProfMesjr'l room was a small cubicle, en tered by a swinging door with plain glass panels, partitioned off from the hail. It contained two h:iirs and a cottage pianoforte. MaoAll.s:er waa a uUJ, B.ight maji. with ■ clean shaven face and twitching Up*— lull naturally, but much compressed *>> habit. In self -defence, he cultivated a frigid manner, ar.d when addressing his pupils he always inoted straight over their heads at th» woodwork ot the skylight. Apart from these mannerisms, he and a charm which made him popular at the A^ade .ny. He was a careful teacher, an accomplished organist; the gavottes, minuets, serenades, revering :::J ballades which he composed mad-: at least a little money, Miss Eu?tlen dropped her music caw when, without seeming to rrga.d her at ail. he waved her to th© piano, and struck a few tine minor chords himself with ore careiess hand on the upper Keys. The lesson, which lasted half an hour, was .■_ 'tuiet aifair. sue felt that hsi had formed no star j:s opinion of her talent, and she could not flatter hTself that he had paid any attention to her ap pearance. She looked her beat that day. and wore ,i tnmcß of 1. . - ■■<-«. f-tr.f»-va.>y In her belt. Their perfume gave him ideas for a Nocturne. Brit she lever knew this? Three girls. Including the viva cious candidate with the new French boots, were raiting as Cecily .pit. and she felt they would be s;ivpn the same cold, scrupulous attention that sha h:id received. Every Saturday she went to him. no conversation passed betw»>*n them until the concert took place at the end of tr:e term, when (be had to sit. '.ir^sed in white, with a blu« sash aeroas one shoulder, in the orch<»sVa. under th« big ran. To her surprise, during the Interval -Ni.i'All.st'-r came up, took a seat on the stairs beside her. and began to talk about the music they had bwn hearing. She trembled from what uh« suprjoseii wa« shyness: his presence affected her strangely, and In her struggle to hide this inex plicable "embarrassment she became stiff. Mac Ail. t»r found her more Intelligent than sympathetic, but she attracted him. and he had especially no ticed her because a friend of his In the audience had chosen her face out of the whole choir. "Sh* is not r rPtt she Is beautifHl." had been his comment. "She reminds ma of Titian's 'La Belle" at Florence." This gave MucAllister another Idea— for a song this trme— and he derided on the Instant that Mise Kusden waa the most interesting member of h!s jlass. At the rif-xt' lessi,;i he praised her progress. "You'll do best with Ba?h and Brahms." he said, "And read a lot. Have you a favorite poet?" Sho replied tritely enough, but with truth. "Shake speare." "Do you read French." he asked. "Oh yes, Balzac," she answered. "To my mind." said he. permitting himself to ■teal a swift glance at her profile— she was staring hard at tha i>age Of Bach in front of her— "to my mind, no one in France has beaten Rousseau. I have no time for any one else. In Italian there's Leopardl. Get the French tran«!atlon— lt's admira ble. In America there a Walt Whitman, when )OfJ are a good deal older.

He made a gesture toward ills fore head when ha referred to his soul, for he had no wixh to bring his heart, by any common associa tion of ideas. in,to discussion. Cecily, on her way home to Holland Park, got out of "the omnibus and ordered the works oX Roll: sieau and Arnold at Whiteley's.
