SAVING GAS THIS SUMMER.

Little heart-shaped pans-not made
for sentiment. h~oweyer-are so con-
structed thatsthree. can be SpIaced over

the gas stove, especially II the front of
the stove is~taken up with irons, the
clothes boiler and other articles. The
pans ssre also useful In heating
warmed over foods.
