I have to see ten Birds' Nests a day, and, if I do not get up to that number, I put money in u box in ald of my favourite charity.

A Bird's Neat?

Yes. In my game a Bird's Nest is a woman's head on to the top of which her hair has been drugged and twiddled into a mush of meaningless so-called curls, so that It looks exactly like a bird's nest.

No thought nor attention has been given to the growth of the hair on the back of the head, so that the ends flap in the breeze and are reminiscent of the bits of straw that protrude round the edges of birds' nests,

A Perfect Cup have You

A MAN who spends his time tast-

Attention to detail is essential in preparing a good cup. The best coffee can be

There are at least a dozen distinct types of coffee, from Mocha

to

and your coffee will then be ready to serve.

Good coffee can also be made in a saucepan. Heat the ground coffee over the fire for two minutes before you add the water, but take care, you do not burn It. Either hot or cold water can be used, but in either case it should be brought to the boil three times, and then allowed to stand for six minutes.

Good coffee should be quite clear, and you will find that your break-

fast cup will taste much better if you first pour the coffee through a coffee strainer, or a straining cloth, and not straight into the cup.

Hot or cold milk can be used to sult your own taste, but most people prefer "holf and half.".

A Pleasant Variation

As a variation from the ordinary cup of coffee, you will And Turkish coffee a pleasant drink which can be cantly and quickly prepared.

Place in a jug the amount of water you require, and add sugar to suit your taste. Bring this to the boil, and then add the coffee. Bring the mixture again to

If you wish to make a really good cup of coffee, see that your ground coffee is fresh. You will best ensure this by keeping it in an airtight jar rather than in a tin. The connois- seur who really likes coffee thinks that the small expense of keeping a coffee-mill, and grinding it freshly for every brew, is well worth while.
