Stewing the Sponge Coffee Week Oct. 17-23 Coffee may be likened unto a sponge saturated with honey, the "honey," or very essence of coffee, being the, volatile oils; the "sponge," or fiber, be ing merely the container. It is this fiber or "grounds" which carries the tannin and caffeine, and therefore the foiling of coffee brings out the heaviest proportion of these properties. The mistaken argument of economy in favor of boiling is proven by the fact that it does not produce more "honey," but simply brings out bitterness, caffeine and tannin. The problem, then, of proper coffee making is to first get a coffee that contains the most "honey," and then to extract the "honey" without stewing the "sponge." The simplest, easiest and most effective method will appear over my signature in this paper tomorrow.- , , .Incidentally it should be remembered that a pound of high grade 40-cent coffee will produce from 38 to 40 smooth, rich and delicious cups, a cost of 1 cent per cup the cheapest and best enjoyed article on one's table providing it is fresh roasted and properly brewed. Its efficiency decreases in twofold ratio with each cent that you pay under 40 cents per pound; as for example, at the rate of 20 cents per pound, less than a dozen cups may be secured by the "honey-extracting process, which represents a cost of about 2 cents per cup. Moral Get your coffee fresh roasted; and to secure highest ef ficiency in the cup at the lowest cost, DO NOT PAY LESS THAN 40 CENTS PER POUND. u INJURY JUDGMENT FIRST DECISION OVER TAKES PRECEDENCE MORTGAGE RIGHTS. Appeal of Cornucopia Mines Receiver In Personal Injury Case la DiHmissed in tuimissingr an appeal from the Federal Court In Portland In the case or John L. Btsher, Jr., against the Cornucopia, Mines Company of Oregon tne Supreme Court of the Lnited States has laid down the law that a Judgment for injuries sustained is a lien against property, which takes precedence In time and Is superior in right to a mortgage, even though the injury complained of was suffered after the sale to. the trustee for the bond, holders under a foreclosure decree. Charles A. Johns. attorney for Bisher, who recovered judgment for 12.o00 in Federal Court a few years go, yesterday received word of the ismissat of the appeal by the Supreme Court, wnich thereby affirms the judg ment or judge wolverton. of the local eaerai court and the judgment ot he United States Circuit Court of Appeals at San Francisco, which sus tained Judge Wolverton. Mr. Johns tates that the decision sets a prece ent In law.

Pending appeal, attorneys for Bisher filed a bill of intervention in the orig inal foreclosure suit, asking that the judgment be made a lien against the actual property prior to that of the mortgage. After trial Judge Wolverton granted this demand and ordered the property to be sold to satisfy the amount of Blsher's judgment. This is the decision affirmed yesterday.
