The Truth About
Electric Cool ing

For large families where
the average domestic help is
employed and a large
amount Of cooking done,
Electric Cooking will be
found more expensive, and
in most cases not advisable.
In small families, where
no help is employed, and
where nice equipment is de-
sired, Electric cooking will
be found many times more
convenient, more certain in
results and safer in opera
tion-as well as reasonable
in cost.
In every family a few
utensils for early breakfast,
emergency and special uses
and for cheering up cold
meals with a warm dish or
two--is highly advisable
from every standpoint, in
Guiding that of economy.
