The nominations Of a temporary

were nominated. The vote for tenn

\ smooth, Plain Range for the Kitchen

The modern idea in the work of the home as well as in business is economy of time and labor as well as economy of money, and for the up-to-date nome kitchen furniture must be wholly pIac- tical-free from useless features. Take for example the kitchen range. -
 Manufacturers for years .vied Wltn each other in covering thelr "rooucl with rosettes and flligree in the ran, cied belief that a showy range WouIo please the housewife best.
 But what a mistake! Ask any house keeper today and she will say; me Kitchen is the chief workroop n ycHhf home; its fixtures should be~neaF plain and sanitary. The cooking g/range should be in keeping with thiY idea--outside finish smooth and plaiR You know q smooth casting is always easy to clean" Range should be given chief credit for the modern plain fange It is in their modelling departments and pattern shops that the graceful, pleasing lines of the preseht-day plain range have been carefully worked out.
 But remember-it is one thing to make a plain range and quite another to make 1t smooth. plain casting shows all imperfections. If the iron is poor or the workman careless, the In- ish will be coarse and rough, not inc and smooth like Glenwood, For right here Is where Glenwoods excel thev are smooth as well as plain.
