'Well, I will, returned the other, 'though you are not earnest yet. 'In this desire for earnestness, murmured Eugene, with the air of one who was meditating deeply, 'I trace the happy influences of the little flour-barrel and the coffee-mill. Gratifying.
Mary parched the corn, ground it fine in the coffee-mill and salted and served it close beside the candle. "It's good white corn," she said, laughing. "Many a time when I was a child I used to eat this in my playhouse and thought it delicious. Didn't you? What! not going to eat?" Richling had told her how he got the corn. Now he told his sensations.
When this Seed is dry and sweet, grind it in a Mill, such as a Coffee-Mill; but the Mill must be fresh, and free from any Flavour or Taint: it should not indeed be used with any other thing. When you have ground a sufficient Quantity, pass it through a pretty open Sieve, and the next day put it into Vials with open Mouths, pressing it down close; stop them well, and keep it for use.
"My head aches sort of. I hope you didn't have a fight with Racey Dawson." "Well, we didn't quite agree," admitted Molly, snapping shut the cover of the coffee-mill and clamping the mill between her knees. "I don't like him any more, Ma." "And after he's helped us so! I was counting on him to fix up this mortgage business! Whatever's got into you, Molly?"
See here, on the floor, where you have scattered the coffee about, and now I must get a broom and sweep it up. If you do so, I can't let you come down here." The boy stood and looked at the cook seriously, while she got the broom and swept up the dirt he had made. "It's all clean again now," said the cook, pleasantly. "And you won't do so any more, will you?" "No, I won't touch the coffee-mill."
This idea of the agricultural or mystical van represented measure and order too well to be exactly applied to life. It seemed to him that men were grains in a coffee-mill. He had had a vivid sensation of this the day before, when he saw Madame Fusellier grinding coffee in her mill. Therese said to him: "Why are you not conceited?"
Now her mistress was in the kitchen. Psia krew! what was she rattling the coffee-mill for? Or was it the tin in which the sugar was kept? "All good spirits!" The girl made the sign of the cross. Was the woman in league with the devil? The master had brought poison from Gnesen, poison for the rats.
Bartley was introduced. The man was a miner, named Joe Scott. "Joe, here, is a minin' man when he ain't runnin' a all-night lunch-stand," explained Cheyenne. "He can't work his placer when it's dark, but he sure can work a skillet and a coffee-mill." "What you been up to?" queried the giant slowly, as he made a fire in the stove, and set about getting breakfast.
In form it was like a great coffee-mill, such as I had seen in London, only a thousand times larger, and with heavy windlass to work it. 'Put in a barrow-load of the smoulder, said Uncle Ben to Carfax, 'and let them work the crank, for John to understand a thing or two. 'At this time of day! cried Simon Carfax; 'and the watching as has been o' late!
Rathson's description of the "coffee-mill" was certainly not exaggerated. It was a rusty, rattle-bag concern a relic of the dark ages of cycling and .looked as if it had not been used for a twelvemonth.
