Kitchen Brush.

A wonderfully serviceable little
brush is one made for cleaning pots
and pans that have become blackened
from use on the stove. The thrifty
German hcusekeeper uses a similar
brush. 1t Is short and thick with
stout handle intended for energetic
use, and has short bristles of fine cop

ly stiff black bristles. The copper
wire is particularly useful for cleaning
metal cooking utensils that have be-

LARGE FREEZER NOT NEEDED
Indispensable Adjunct of the

Many women do without an ice
cream freezer during the summer be-
cause they consider it too expensive.
This is because most women do not
stop to consider that it is not neces-
sary to buy large freezer, especially
when small quart one will answer
the purpose. 1t is as handy as a meat
chopper in the home Seldom does
one wish more than a quart of cream
or pudding, or even frozen ices, for
the average family. and the work is
so easily done that any ices or pud-
dings can be made by merely doing
the work at the kitchen sink. 1t is SO
handy during the summer that those
who know of the many advantages Of
The toy freezer would not do without
one. The ice expense is not worth
mentioning. for it takes comparatively
little for such a freezer.
