AN ELECTRIC DEVICE.

Electric cooking in every house. hold may revolutionize the modern kitchen should the experiments now being made by Dr. Harmon N. Morse, professor of analytic chemistry at John Hopkins University prove to be of practical value, says the Baltimore News. How much this would alter twentieth century civilization not to mention the twentieth century stonl- ach, is a difficult question to answer.
 It will be recalled that few years ago Dr. Morse invented new type of electric furnace that excelled in prac- tical value and in the height of tenn perature produced. Lately Prof. Morse, with his assistant in research on the Carnegie foundation, Dr. J. c. w. Frazer, has so improved his fur mace that it can now be used for cook ing. The heat can now be regulated to within less than one degree, and the desired temperature can be main tained at constant point indefinitely.
 The furnace possesses domestic ad- vantages that are to be found in none of the ordinary modern ranges. The problem of hauling the coal up out of the cellar is solved. The care of the range is obviated, and there is no pos sibility of spelling the dinner. No one will be obliged to rise in the cold, gray dawn to light the fire, and the fuel bill may disappear. -l.:

Experiments. .COOks.=

The one disadvantage of the furnace will be obliged to experiment with the furnace to discover the exact tempera- lures and times that the various ar ticles of food require for perfect prep aration. To remedy this defect, or, rather, this lack of experience, it is by those who are in a position to know whereof they speak, that Prof. Morse is amusing himself in his leisure mo- ments with series of extensive ex- periments to determine values of va rious foodstuffs and the temperatures at which they must be prepared to obtain the best results, with a view to publishing a treatise on the subject of cooking, including tables giving in detail the results of the work and the temperature and the time necessary for the perfect cooking of the ordi- nary staples of food.
 The cook book may simplify things for the prospective electrical cook, and will furnish all the needful infor- nation, so that a child can cook any size dinner with the aid of Prof. Morse's notes on the subject. Those who have seen tie results of the ex- periments that Prof. Morse has made up to date say that,the completed work will take precedence over Mime. Ror- er's similar treatise, owing to its ex- treme simplicity and novelty.
 Dyspeptic's Friend.
 With the support of the cook book the new stove will stand forth as the friend of all dyspeptics. If the in- structions in the book are followed, there will be absolutely no chance of burning the food, for the stuff to be prepared will simply be placed in the oven, the temperature properly adjusted, and, after the lapse of definite time, the food will be remov- ed, done to turn. No more burned l or underdone roasts. The vagaries of the ordinary range, the extreme | uncertainty of the temperature, are thus done away with, and the heat will no longer be tested by the color of bit of paper stuck into the oven, nor will the "doneness" of a ] pie be ascertained by prodding the crust with straw distracted from l the family broom. Here the temper 1 ature is definitely settled at the start, while in the case of the cook l ing lessons in the ladies' own pa pers the constant use of thermom- eter nd constant jollying of the fire are necessary
 Electrical Restaurant.
 One result of the recent improve ments made in the furnace that is probable is the establishment of an electrical restaurant at the univer- sity. Good meals will be served, all electrically cooked, at moderate prices. This project is only in the form of suggestion from one of the students interested, who regards the | proposed electrical cafe as an excel lent method of testing the furnace.

GETTING

PAVING
Ground Broken Preparatory to In
proving State Street

The first ground has been broken
for the paving on State street, and
this years May day can be written
down in the city's history as one OF
the most important in its history,
marking an era of progress which

step towards making a real city of
Oregon's capital. Much preliminary
work will of necessity have to be
done in the way of connecting sew
ers and putting gas, water and SER
vice pipes of different kinds, besides
the work necessary on the part of the
electric company. But as soon as
these. primary matters are properly
adjusted the work will be pushed
through with the least possible delay
Mr.. Archambeau, the head of the
paving company, was in the city the
other day, and he proposes to push
the work as rapidly as conditions will
permit.
