moved forever all the political dis
abilities which arose from the Civil

find him either at a luxuriously appointed
Office in the city hall or ut E,oro or less

mating gastronomio marvels are pro.
duced, consist of q range and table

II "piped" water is introduced from
y town or city vaterworks, the labor Of
housekeeping Is immensely diminished,
but as this happy condition is BY no
means universal the location Of the
well or the oistern, becomes an impor.
tant consideration. Thousands Of steps
may be- saved and hundreds Of exposures
avoided by thinking beforehand on
these. A little longer piece Of lead pipe
will bring the oistern water into the
kitchen, SO that the pump can be placed
close to the sink, and short length OF
rubber hose pipe fitted to the spout will
save the heavy lifting that keeps many
women i'll all their days.
Space and steps can be economical by
placing the kitchen windows so high in
the wall that hanging table can be
placed under them and put up out Of
the way when not in use.
Some Of the undesirable 'largeness"
of the kitchen could be utilized in a
light closet, where all cooking utensils,
from pots and pans to aesthetic jelly
molds could be stored. and the kitchen
