SOME KITCHEN HINTS
BEAUTY AND CONVENIENCE ARE
HERE COMBINED.
ThoughtfuIness in Laying Out Most
Important Room in the House
Will Be Well Repaid in Saw
Ing of Time and Labor.

When beauty and convenience can
be combined, as they are in the pres
ent design for the end of kitchen.
we have the chief end of house-plan-
ming fulfilled, says a writer in the
Kansas City Star. The space between
the chimney, which stands in the COR
her. and is, connected with the range
few feet away, and the opposite side
of the room, is entirely filled with
cupboards, framing In two rather high
windows. At the top of the space are
four doors, which open on shelves
where the stores are kept which are
little used; the extra soap, the extra
dish towels; canned goods provided
in case OF emergency, and SO on. Be
low these store shelves are two cup
boards for spices, 1avorings, sugar,
tea and coffee. The board that forms
the bottom shelf of these cupboards
runs all along under the window, CIV
ing a place for a pot of bright flow
ers. This sill is; kept sufficiently mar
row SO that it will not interfere with
the use of the sink, drip-board and ta-
BILE space below it. The space under
the sink is kept open, of course, ex-
cept for a chute provided to take pa

pers to the cellar. The chute might
open from the floor, instead of pro-
jecting into the room, if preferred.
Below the slantfng drip-board at the
left of the sink is an open space. Be-
low this, q closet for pots and pans.
The board at the right of the sink is
level, for table use, and below it is
holding board that can be slipped
back under the table top when not in
use. Under this again are three draw
ers for towels, aprons, etc. If half the
space proved sufficient for drawer
room, the rest could be proftably used
for a flour bin 1t is to be noted that
in this kitchen the sink is easily sew
en- inches higher than the plumber
wanted to put it, and the owner, who
had to argue for an hour to gain her
point, never ceases to rejoice that she
insisted on her own way. The extra
height saves hours of backache from
bending while working in the kitchen.
One provision that should always
be made for kitchen is cold-pantry.
This should be a small closet, as far
away as possible from the stove and
from the radiators, and opening to-
ward the north, if possible. If it can
be put in one side of north entry
that opens from a screened porch, so
that it will be most useful. The re-
frigerator should be built in, if posi-
BILE, and should have door opening
on this same screened porch, so that
it may be filled from the outside, with
out tracking up the kitchen.

For The Dishwasher.

Besides having a pot chain and
scraper you should have thick canvas
cloths for the pots and pans and sep
arate light cloths for the finer china
ware. A rubber sponge is just the
thing for greasy dishes. One of these
lasts a long time and gives you such
satisfaction that you will never do
without one once you try them. Cake
tins, patty pans and all small tinware
boiled in a dishpan in the water OF
which a handful of soda has been
thrown will become fresh and clean
and as bright as new.

States Exnenses pouhIed.

A statement comparing the states
expenses of last year with those OF
1900, designed to explain the large in
crease, was made public by Secretary
OF State Frear. The statement shows
for 1910 an Increase of $4,4S4,156 on
nineteen large items of expenditures,
more than double the amount expend-
ed in 1900. The remaining increase
OF $780,, 304 is covered by a large
number of specific items, including
the increase in natural growth of the
state.
Figures on the proportion of the
ten year increase occasioned by new
commissions show that less than 20
per cent. of the items included in the
$4,000 increase were due to the ex-
penses of the railroad and tax commits
