The kitchen is the labora tory and
workshop of the home. When this de-
partment of the household economy Is
equipped with the modern appliances
it changes the drudgery Of cooking
and the labor of housekeeping into in
teresting scientific achievement. AS
'civilized man cannot live without
cooks the work of the kitchen, right
ly understood and properly done, il
the most important Of the entire
attaches to the accomplishment of the
cuisine of which any woman may be
proud, one which men would boast of
did they possess it.
A carpenter, a blacksmith, or me-
chanic of any kind, working in shop,
keeps his tools handy, so that every
moment, every step, counts for some
thing. But his wife takes ten steps
going about her work where one might
suffice, if her kitchen was as well
equipped as is her husbands workshop
or office.

does for the woman and her kitchen
what modern labor saving devices tnd
machinery does for the breadwinner
of the family.
This Cabinet is, in fact, whole kit
chen in the compass of a cupboard,
