USEFUL FOR KITCHEN
ZiNC-TOPPED TABLE 10 A GREAT
CONVENIENCE.
Ingenious Bride Contrlves Home
Made Affair That 10 Constant De-
lights Wonderful Saver of
Time and Labor.

A homemade zipc-topped table Is
q convenience that Is a constant de-
light In the home OF an ingenious
bride She carried out the idea very
inexpensively, after admiring a cost
ly metal-topped table with raised
edge to keep small objects from roll
ing off when the surface was wet
and slippery. She had noticed in her
girlhood home that the kitchen table
in constant use caused considerable
annoyance in keeping 1t clean and
slightly after hard service. In spite
OF constant care, grease spots fire.
quently penetrated the wooden sur
face and refused to be removed. Dish
washing stains from pots and pans re-
suited from mishaps when the dish
washer was too busy to take the usual
precautions. Stains and marks from
canning and preserving, knife-marks
from careless bread cutting, meat
stains and evidences of various forms
of cookery left their mark, until 1t
seemed almost impossible to keep
the table presentable while in con-
slant use.
The metaltopped tables ESPECIALLY
the desirable zilc.topped tabies)
proved out OF the reach Of the mod
crate pocketbook of the bride in
search Of novelties and convenient
devices In kitchen furnishings. She
determined. however, to improve on
the old methods In furnishing her
new kitchen, and to consider first OF
all every possible method of labor
saving. She avoided the usual stumb-
ling block of considering anything
good enough for tho kitchon-the cast
offs from other parts OF the house
usually relegated to Kitchen limbo
and studied the developments OF the
lever science In housekeeping dis
played in the attention paid to the
construction OF kitchen furniture and
furnishings.
In her browning achieVement--or
developing homemade 2inc-topped
table--she chose the smallest OF her
kitchen tables, without drop leaves:
and purchased piece of zinc to ex-
actly cover 1t. giving the dimensions
of the table top, without allowing an
edge for turning under. Then to give
smooth finish and prevent the slip
perry edge that tuIned-under zinc
would give. and also to avoid the
rough sharp edge. she nailed secure
ly all around the edge OF the zinc
flush with the extreme edge OF the
tablo--a bit of wooden beading well
rounded and smoothed.
