Mr.. Vanderbilt's kitchen is really

purity of marble, the luster Of tiles and
the CLEAN of metal are what one sees.
The floor is Of marble. the shelves, the

windows they are covered with these

wooden trim. The ceiling is made of white
enameled tiles set in cement. But one
does not imperil the head Of $4,000

Is also secured with raised metal bolts
| Accenting all this CLEAN of white and
metal is the large double range. It is set
up in one corner under a large semi-cir

This hood is so powerful an agent in car

The cooking utensils are in keeping
with all this splendOr. They are of cop

them ornamented and some Of them have
been copied from special pieces in the
Cluny and other museums. Luxurious
cooking utensils are indeed the thing oi
the moment, and wedding present moi

such as are now displayed among gems
and gold at the jewelers.. Leading from
the kitchen to the buffers pantry are
spiral stairs entirely enclosed in glass To
shut out possible odor, yet retain the

that, although the kitchen is directly
