During my many years residence in

have always been opposed to an indi-

OVEN HEAT NOT THE BEST
Hot Water Should Be Employed When
Necessity Arises to Keep Pre-
pared Food Warm.

To keep food warm is very impor-
tant detail, to which sufficient atten-
ton is not paid. First of all, food
should never be put into the oven to
keep warm. This is a common prac-
tice and bad one. The kind of heat
to which the article of food is subject
ed tends to dry the surfaces, some
times to leather, sometimes to a
crisp. This spoils the flavor and
renders the dish unappetizing.
There is but one right way to keep
warm. Put it upon a dish, plate, or
bowl, according to its consistency;
cover it closely with an inverted bowl,
dish, or plate; make it as air-tlght as
possible. Half fill with boiling water
pot or saucepan. into the top OF
which the vessel containing the food
will fit; set it back on the stove where
the water will be kept at boiling point
place the dish or bowl under it, and
leave until required
If this suggestion is followed, 1t will
be found that most dishes can be kept
for while without losing caste.
Croquettes and all fried foods are
the exception. By standing they be.
come limp and soggy. If they cannot
be fried at the last moment, they may
be kept hot short time in the front
of an open oven.

BANISH 0D0RS FROM ICE BOX
Simple Precautions VIII Keep Food
Placed in Refrigerator Always
Dainty and Palatable.

1t was friendly grocery clerk who
suggested a remedy for the possible
odor in an ice box affecting prints
of butter. 1t so happened that the pur-
chaser had only an ice chest of rather
contracted proportions in which to
keep her provisions, and in order
to delay the melting OF the Ice (partly
owing to a piece of the valve having
;ome off) she used heavy brown paper
TO Keep the chilly block from touching
the sides of the box. So far, the idea
worked well, but 1t is hard to find pa
per that will be absolutely without
a refrigerator smell" when the con-
tact with the ice has made 1t damp
or a time this did not matter, as the
milk was in closed bottles and the but
ter she was used to buying came in
sanitary waxed pasteboard boxes. But
when she was no longer able to get
that brand and had to take ordinary
one pound prints. without other pro-
lection than waxed paper, the grocery
boy met her objections by suggesting
the use of the oblong tin boxes in
which half pounds of American teas
are packed. They are good teas, too,
but she did not even have to purchase
item, as he offered to save her box.
and into it the pound print fitted with
just the little margin to spare that
would make 1t easy to slide the butter
out when wanted. Since then she has
also learned that good lump of char
ccal in the corner of the ice box helps
to keep the air in 1t sweet-auite as
much as it keeps fresh and odorless
the water in which cut flowers are
placed in vases or other receptacles.
