An Energy Saver.

PAPER bag cookery is exceedingly
simple, and the cook who only has one
of two people to prepare fot finds this
method a great saving in time, mate
rial and energy.
In cooking with the paper bag there
is no smell and no waste Portions
for one or two people can he put into
the bag and cooked without loss by
evaporation.
A great many people have thought
that any kind of paper bag would
do and have tried cooking in paper
bags which once contained sugar or
coffee. But the results we're quite dis
astrous. The bag burned up or the
food spilled out and there was a dis
tinctly papery taste to anything that
was left.
You must have a bag made Of mate
rals that are absolutely pure and
odorless. and it must be a bag that
doesn't leak Choose your bag accord
ing to the amount of food to be cooked.
and don't put a small quantity i'm a
big bag The bag should be placed in
the oven. ANY oven will do. If YOU
are using a gas stove, don't place the
bag nera the gas jet. II should be at
