Take hope, ye weary home-makers, there is a core. The Drip Method! Tea. ma'am, and not only does It produce the true coffee flaror. clear and sparkling, a brew fit for-the gods and husbands but It's fool proof, it eliminates worry and extra care- It's economical and conrenient. Eren one cup of coffee can be made Just aa satisfactorily as a larger amount. And not the least of Its Joys by any means the pot does not require as much scouring as you usually apply to other coffee uten sils. Filtering Needs Care Because the waxes in the coffee are not extracted, these deposits do not cling to the inside of the pot. bringing the bitter Uste so com monly found in coffee.

See Tomorrow's Observer for The Special Kiddies Show Coming on Saturday! LEHR A'conrse. there are pots and pots, when it cornea to drip coffee makers. Choose well! The holes in the cof fee basket should be Just so. the basket in proportion to the site of the pot. Some materials are not as good aa others. Fresh, clean filter papers are es sential to clearness, much better to my way of thinking than cloth, for unless utmost care la used the coffee waxes may be cooked in the fibres of the cloth producing an undesirable flaror. Coffee Must Be Specially Prepared Which brings us up to the coffee! The first step, of course, toward good coffee is to Buy a Good Coffee which in this Instance means one specially prepared. Finely ground, yes but it must be spec lally blended and roasted In such a way that the flarorsome oils contained in the cof fee berry cells, opened by grinding. are cooked and made ready for dlssolTlng Just the rery minute the boiling water passes through the coffee. Ah, me what if you had to worry about this yourself. Did I hear a sigh for the good old days? Well now there's coffee specially prepared , for producing the finest of drip cof fee, a pot designed to bring out all the fine qualities of the coffee and, right in the can to save yoa time and expense, a neat little package of filter papers. What more can yoa ask Bare for the boiling water and. a minute to sit down and linger over the comforting delight of a good cup of coffee? beauty of a travelure bag lies In the 1 fact that It Is smalt and handy yet carries the clothes without leaving them a mass of folds and wrinkles. The new luggage Is of serviceable leathers, with genuine cowhide among the most practical coverings. The heavy moire linings will wear as long as the outer coverings of tough cow hide too. 1 Occasional tables for ash trays, cigarette boxes, coffee service and a thousand other little necessities of comfort in the home are shown in a variety of designs at Fitzgerald's Furniture Co. These occasional tables, if one takes the trouble to notice, are demonstrative of the radi cal changes In American art. from the spindle and spool legs of early Am erican to the present mode of study modernism which has risen out of the Century of Progress and the new trends In architecture. Fitzgerald's occasional tables are all designed from walnut in different sizes. A profusion of fur again gives that luxurious appearance to the fall wraps seen at Stevens-Van Engelen. A black and grey combination has been used effectively in one of their most attractive dress coats. Black wool material is combined with grey squirrel fur fashioned Into a small collar In epaulets which give the necessary broadshoulCered effect. Brown and dark green are also among the colors which are utilized effec tively in. the new fall coat models. MARKET NEWS ' CHICAGO WHsTATV '; I Ones High. Um . .al4 '- M: .assess sih ' ' Sept.
