SHELF FOR THE PANTRY.
Convenient For Dishes on Way to and
From the Kitchen.

In the modern American house there
is usually a small room between the
Kitchen and the dining room and COM
municating with both, which is COM
monty called, for the lack of a better
term, the buffers pantry" This is
proper title for such a room in the
larger houses where the butler is
reality, for here he reigns supreme;
put In the majority of American
houses the term is rather a misnomer.
Inc room Is sometimes modestly
called the china closet" but this also
conveys rather a wrong impression,
Tor while IT is truly a china closet, it
is also something much more than
this. Perhaps the term which would
best suggest the true character of the
room ts that which is occasionally
used-the Serving room" AS the
room Is primarily a serving room,
tnere must be plenty of shelf space
Tor the dishes coming from the kitchen
on their way to the dining room and
Tor the soiled dishes coming back
from the dining room. This demand is
met by placing. shelf about two feet
wide around the room at a convenient
nelght-usually about two feet eight
inches to two feet ten inches from the
noor-known as the countershelf, says
a writer in Indoors and Out A cup
board for trays should be provided
with series of thin shelves narrowly
spaced-either sliding or stationary
on which the trays rest, or with up
right bars, between which the trays,
standing on edge, may be slid. A
plate warmer may be provided under
the countershelf over a register from
the hot air furnace, or 1t may be
heated by steam. gas, hot water or
electricity.

Glaze.

AS glaze is a term often found in
recipes. it is well to know how to
make it. Boil some strong, clear
gravy or jelly; that is, stock that has
formed jelly when cold; put over a
quick fire until it is the thickness of
cream, stirring constantly until 1t will
adhere to the spoon.
1t must then be poured out of the
stewpan. The greatest care is re-
quired during the time of thickening
to prevent it from burning. When re-
Quired for use, dissolve it by placing
the jar, or whatever it may be kent
in, in boiling water and brushing it
over the meat cover with spirits of
turpentine, and expose to the sun.
1t is not necessary that this should
be done under glass.
