COOKING TABLE ABsoLuTnv
THE BEsT or ITs KIND.
Especially to Those Whose Pantry 10
9 Cold One This Device VIII bs
Found to Make cor Economy
In steps, TlnN and Fuel.

Not long ago saw cooking table
or cabinet that would be appreciated
BY every housewife who has a cold
pantry opening out Of her kitchen.
1t is next to impossible to keep such
q pantry warm enough to be able to
handle the flour. eggs and dishes used
in cooking, with any degree OF com
fort
BY this device one can economiSe
steps, time and fuel.
The cabinet is nine feet long, two
fest and four inches wide. and two feet
eight inches high.
It Is divided into three compart-
ments Of three feet each. In the right
hand cupboard IL the -four barrel. The
cover to this section has hinges, 20
that Il may be raised TO reach the
hour. The bread board ID kept on top
Of the barrel, and there II space at the
sides for bread tins, mixing spoons,
and various small articles
In the left-hand cupboard or section
are kept food, mixing-milk, molasseS
and vinegar jugs. sugar box and tin
dishes.
In the center are four deep drawers
the upper one being made into two. In
these are kept eggs, spices. soda, and
whatever else Ii needed In the culS
nary department.
One drawer ID devoted to towels,
dischclcths, ETC., and another to such
things as are to be mended, together
with the necessary materials for do
ing the work speedily and well.
In small space, here. is found nearly
everything that il used every day In.
the pantry.
The housekeeper who owned 1t told
me that, having used the cabinet one
winter, she would not part with 1t for
many times its cost, II she could not
get another.
This one was made without any
floor, to save expense. OF course. one
must vary the size according to the
SPACE in which the cabinet 10 to bo

about his shoulders, fastened at the

TWO for a Quarter.


He was smoking fine, full-havored
Havana when he met his friend.
"Have a cigar?" he Inquired, very
politely.
Thanks" said the other, gratefully,
taking and lighting the proffered weed.
After q few experimental puffs, how
ever, the friend removed the cigar
from his lips and, looking at It doubt
fully. said, with q very evident abate-
ment Of gratitude in his tone:
'What do you pay for these cigars !"
'aTwo for q quarter" said the orig
inal proprietor Of both weeds, taking
his own cigar out Of his mouth and
looking at it with considerable salts
faction. 'This one cost me 30 cents
and that five"
The conversation languished at this
point.-Puck.

Former New Haven Head, Testifying
Before Commerce Commission
Says IL viii Solve Rail-
road Problem

Washington, May 22.-A monop-
oily OF transportation under govern
ment regulation and control was
suggested by Charles s. Mellen, for
mer president of the New Haven
railroad. to the interstate commerce
commission as the solution of the
American railroad problem.
ITO get efficiency and economy"
Mr.. Mellen said, there must be
monopoly. and that monopoly is GER
tain to be the United States gov
ernment."
A little later he remarked that
every time q railroad official
comes to Washington he has to take
off his hat to some government Of
ficial."
Mr.. Mellen told at length the
story Of his steamship transactions
with Charles w. Morse. Concerning
these Mr.. Mellen explained he felt
1t desirable to confer with Colonel
Roosevelt, who then was president
of the United States. Mr.. Roose-
welt, he said, apparently was anx-
ious that Morse should be checked
in his ambition to acquire monop-
oily of the steamship lines, and urg-
ed Mr.. Mellen not to sell.
Mr.. Mellen said he was apprehen-
sive at that time of the enactment
of law by congress to prevent rail-
roads from owning or controlling
water lines, but he was assured by
Mr.. Roosevelt that so long as the
law remained as it then was, the
New Haven need have no fear about
its water line holdings.
