Bread and Cake Boxes.

There is some difference of opinion
as TO the proper place to store bread
and cake. A great many housekeepers,
following time honored precedent, still
keep their bread and cake in large
stoneware crooks. fitted with covers.
The objection to these is that they are
very heavy to lift. and in summer are
apt to invite mould. unless they are
Kept In a dry, upstairs closet. Such
bread crooks should be scalded out
every time they are filled, or as often
as twice a week. Cake crooks need
not be scalded out so often. They
should both be cold and dry when they
are filled again and shut up.
Bread crooks are so heavy and cause
so much unnecessary labor that large
boxes of tin enamelled on the outside
have been substituted for them. There
are. however, more objections to tir
than to stone ware. Tin Is apt to give
q "tinny" taste to any bread or cake
kept in it. To avoid this some bread
boxes are furnished with ventilators

Packing the Trunk.

much better to pack the blouses rough
