Paper Bag Cookery, which has
become so popular in Europe, has
now been introduced into America,
and may be secured in ST. Johns.
The bags do away with pots and
pans, the food being prepared and
put into the bag without any dish
or other receptacle. This means
no greasy cooking dishes to wash.
Those who have tried them claim
the bags are a great success. Thirty
assorted bags cost about so cents,
