Frying Pan Put Under Ban.

The great American frying pan received
a solar plexus blow from the Montclair
IN. - Board Of Education, which has de-
cided to cut that kitchen utensil from the
list OF articles to be purchased for the high
school kitchen. Benjamin V. Hartman,
acting chairman Of the board protested
against the inclusion of the frying pan.
He said frying pans meant chicken cro-

quotes, and these meant dyspepsia for the
children. other members Of the board were
OF the same opinion.

The Home Chemist.

II every housekeeper knew how easily
she could be her own chemist adulterated
foods would soon be abolished without any
help from the law. To the average lay
man, says the Baltimore Sun. there is
something formidable in the thought Of
testing the family butter and flour and
canned vegetables for the presence Of
poisonous p~reservatives, but as a matter
of fact these tests can be made in any
kitchen, with an outfit that costs almost
nothing and can be kept in a corner of
the cupboard. And II, as physicians de-
clare, the increase Of kidney diseases in
late years is due largely to the use of
s~alicylic acid In canned foods, and II the
population at large Is being fed starch in
its coffee, copper with its pickles and for
maldehyde in its butter, It is time foI
housekeepers to arm themselves against

said they could iron their collars and cuffs.
Twenty girls could mend their clothes-at
least that's what they claimed, and seven
teen had made shirt waists. Seven OF the
seventeen had made but one shirt waist
but there was one girl in the class who had
made fifty. When It came to trimming
hats there we're thirteen girls who knew
how, and thirteen who didn't know and
hadn't tried TO learn.
The principal Of the school framed this
list OF questions and considers the answers
a fair exposition OF the domestic knowl-
edge Of the average high school girl. He
asked the questions with a definite object
in view. He wanted to be certain that
domestic science was an advisable addition
to the school studies. After the answers
to his thirty questions were thoroughly
considered he admitted that there would
be no delay in establishing the new
course.
