THE KITCHEN RANGE.
How 20 Economist on the Use Of
CoaI-Building Fires.

One Of the most fruitful sources of
household waste and extravaganza Is
the coal bin, and tons Of fuel are used
where a single one would give the
same results. Open drafts and a range
full to the covers Of glowing Goals not
only burn a needless. amount Of coal,
but burn out the range at the same
time. A shovelful Of coal or sufficient
to lightly cover the fire will accom-
plish as much as a half scuttleful, 4.
cepting In the Increase Of the coal
mans trade.
For a small range nut coal is BEST
for q large one, small egg coal Red
ash coal makes a hotter fire, with
fewer cinders, than the white ash, and
the latter burns more slowly. Fox
these reasons an equal mixture Of the
two ID q wise economy. The ashes
taken from the fire should never be
thrown into the can until they are
sifted. The cinders thus obtained can
be used on the fire at times when the
greatest heat Is not needed. But they
always be added after the fresh
coal Ia well aglow.
A third Of a cupful Of kerosene with
which to saturate the kindling and
coal before putting it in the range
will facilitate the housemaid's morn
ing work, whether or not the fire has
been kept overnight Kerosene should
never, however, be poured directly into
a stove, either from the cup or can.
The best way is to lay the wood on
g. shovel and cover 1t there with the
oil, and then add e sprlnkling to a
shovelful Of coal. Many housekeepers
insure their kitchens against accident
from this cause by leaving a part Of a
of oil for the servants use and
locking the rest in the storeroom.
A handful Of sugar will revive an
expiring fire as quickly as will kero
sene, but happy the housewife whose
maid Is ignorant Of the fact. This &C.
counts in many cases for the rapid dis
appearance Of the kitchen sugar sup
ply.
