is unnecessary to say that the stenog-

care and attention; and IS important
work. too, for on it much depends. So
the worker is certainly justified in maxi
ing use of any little device for tightening
her labors or economiZing time and in
this connection a kitchen time table is
very helpful.
1t consists Of large piece of card
board, divided into two columns. on
which are written the names Of various
kinds of foods and the time required for
cooking or baking them. Suppose, for
instance. that the first item is Sponge

be learned from experience and then

valuable aid, guarding against burnt
food and saving both time and labor.

the housewife is due to the fact that ii
