 DEVICES EXHIBITED
FIVE DAYS DEMONSTRATION AT GRAY 6 DUDLEY HARDWARE STORE = NOVELTIES ATTRACT HouSEkEEPERS.

The e. and D." five day demonstration being given by the Gray & Dudley Hard ware company at their establishment on First avenue is proving to be of great popular interest.
 A tastefully decorated pavilion has been installed in the front part of the store and here under the supervision of B. W. Haverfield the merits of the "Universal' culinary articles are ably shown.
 The visitor sees the ingredients for beaten biscuits placed in a Universal mixer kneaded and placed on a table ready for the rolling pin. without the hands having come in contact with the dough. The dough is then run through a rolling machine, simple contrivance, attached to a table and turned by small crank.
 This little machine effectually disposes of the greatest hardships in biscuit mak- ing-the beating. Incidentally morning slumber will not be disturbed by continuous pounding, that under the roll ing pin regime, comes up from the kitchen. By tbe use of one of these mixers and rolling machines the ingred- ents are soon in readiness for the baking process, and in a few minutes visitors are served delicious beaten biscuit.
 Coffee making. in the Sternau percu- lator and the Marion Harland pot, is demonstrated The pereulator, which is similar to a chafing dish is intended to be placed on the table, and the coffee made after the guests are seated. The water is heated by a small gasoline vapor, or blue flame oil lamp, and the whole process of making is seen. The drip coffee made in this perculator is en- tirely free from dregs and of fine flavor. The coffee from the Marion Harland pot is also free from dregs. and discriminat- ing coffee drinkers readily recognize the excellence of these coffees.
 At another side of the pavilion, cream is frozen in three minutes in the Washing ton freezer, and the credulous visitor is served cream from the freezer converted in three minutes, under his observation, to a frozen state.
 At another place the workings of the Universal cake and bread mixer is ex- hibited. These mixers appeal strongly to the housewife in that their work is so thorough and quick. Every necessary ingredient is placed in the mixer at once and compounded in the time consumed under the old process in beating the eggs. Bread is prepared with equal dis patch. The mixers are shown in assort- ed sizes. The demonstration will go on until Friday night. Angel cake will be baked the next few days and Friday chocolate cakes will be mixed and baked served the visitors.
 The Universal food chopper will cer- tain1y prove a useful addition to every kitchen. It is small and compact and can be easily attached to a table. It is adapted to diversified uses. Cabbage can be cut fine for slaw, meat for hash, bread for dressing, crackers for oysters, cheese grated and other similar uses will pre- sent themselves. The. Universal ice shave, too will be very convenient, especially while the mercury Is at the top of the tube.
 The demonstrations will continue until Friday night, and MT. Haverfield and corps of assistants will be happy to ex- plain the workings of the Universal de- vices, and to serve breads, cakes, coffees and ice cream to everyone who will call.
