SAVE LABOR m KITCHEN.
Poachng Cups the Latest utensil Il
Find Favor.

Poaching cups that hold eggs so
they viii not have to be dropped into
the water' TO cook are among tho
useful new fall Htensls that all
housewives who do their own work
will appreciate as being economical
and labor savers
These poaching cups, in which the
eggs are cooked by steam, are shall
low and round, and tit into metal lid
perforated so the steam can come
through, The pan on which this lid
fits Is round and about two inches
deep, plenty large enough to be used
AS a cooker for cereals, II is filled
when IN use with boiling water. and
when the eggs are dropped into the
cups that have already been heated
tight fitting top is placed over the
poachers to prevent the steam and
heat from escaping.
1t takes two minutes to poach eggs
in this way, and the trouble OF drop
ping them into the water and fishing
them ont with a ladle is done away
with. Besides IL is less trouble to
prepare eggs in this fashion. and
when served they look so much more
inviting than when the edges are
ragged, for when cooked In cup
they are always we'll round ed and the
yolk is invariably in the center. They
really taste better, too, for there is
no possibility of being water soaked,
fault that many. find with poached
eggs. Then, too. they may be turned
out of cups onto plates or toast, and
look so dainty and tempting that
even an invalid person with faded
appetite would be hungry after seeing
them The price is not more than so
cents for the pan and half dozen
poachers
