And by the same philosophy ike most dallettlt tats or coffee to brew well are; the highest grades that come from the, gardens of the least, where the fancy sesta are grown.

The moral is that if one uses an old- r fashioned coffee pot the coffee should be ground quite fine (not pulverized), and fresh cold water should be boiled in another vessel.

Envy and jealousy make people do a lot of foolish things. steady, and cool, with a judgment un- biased by prejudice or passion. His ideal is that of a high-minded man and an accomplished soldier. He has attained to both of them, - His Military Record. 'Not a .breath has ever sullied. his private character, and his military record is of the highest merit. An excellent horseman and a fine polo, player when he rides among his troops, accompanied always by two or three aides-de-camp and an escort of 17th Lancers, the regiment that he formerly commanded, he looks a cav- alry leader as well as a commander- in-chief, He does not despise the panoply of war—and he is right. The army admires a gallant appearance in its leader. But it is as a staff of - floe; learned in the history of war, ac. complished in all its manifold exer- cises, that Sir Douglas Haig stands almost alone among contemporary soldiers. He has studied his profes- sion deeply. He has put aside all competing interests. He has resist- ed all temptations to divert his atten- tion to other pursuits or to pleasure. By day he has for years labored at the detail of war, and by night he has dreamed of it. So far the battle of the Somme is the fulfilment of his dreams and the outcome of his labors. A master of detail, no detail has ; been left unconsidered. Method, de- vision, and perseverance are his mots ! d'ordre. They are being exemplified on the plateau between Posieres and Longueval. The German general staff have met their match in Sir . Douglas Haig. In the growing con- fidence of his troops, in the loyalty of his army commanders, in the clear- ness of his own vision, and in his Scottish tenacity lie the hopes of vic- tory, Itis admiration for and faith in the armies of France are the bonds that tie together the allied efforts on the Somme, which can only have one result the utter defeat of the eoinman enemy. With General Joffre' the British coml.lender is in close sym- ! pathy. He speaks the French lang- uage with ease and distinction. He remembers that his aucestors, the Scottish Archers, served Louis XI, and France, and he is proud as a Scots- man to command the Imperial armies of Britain to -day. No one recognizes more clearly that in serving France his troops are safeguarding the moral' interests of the whole civilized world. Diplomat. "Sir," said the angry woman, "I un- derstand you said I had a face that would stop a street car in the middle of the block." "Yes, that's what I said," calmly answered the mere man. "It; takes an unusually handsome face to induce a motorman to make a stop like that." It is unwise to go out walking in a driving rain. Sometimes a man who pretends to love his enemies goes back on his best friends. FROM OLD SCOT ND NOTES QP INTEREST FROM RECD BANKS AND BRAES.
