lWVH CASSEROLE large enough to
YAH serve four to six persons will
81 cost 81 or more, but when you
examine them at the dealers
you can probably tell which one will
suit you best. 1 am describing the
one I own. The casserole method OF
cooking does not call for high de-
gree of heat, as do other methods of
boiling, broiling or roasting, but is
process of long, slow cooking at
moderate heat, which does not destroy
fiavors of the food that are generally
lost in the escaping steam where other
methods are used. Thus is developed
a delicious blending of 1avors which
surpasses any other known method
of cooking If you will use this para
graph as the foundation or your cas-
serole cooking you will get along all
right. Casserole cooking Will never
do for the housekeeper who rushes
home about Is minutes before the
meal is to be prepared. This is my
original way of using chicken. IL can
be varied to suit taste We are 1our
in family, so my recipe will be gov
erned accordingly:
Have a 41a-pound fowl cut up in
pieces for serving. Tell the butcher 10
do it. Then, when ready TO prepare,
1 lay aside wings, neck and glbIets,
and use only large pieces in casserole.
I wipe with cloth, then roll each piece
in beaten egg (one) and lay in casse-
role dish. Dust -four over all and add
salt and pepper and about one tea
spoonful of cider vinegar. then nearly
cover with boiling water, put on cover
OF dish and place in moderate oven. If
L want chicken for o'clock dinner /
try to have it in oven about 1890. be-
cause unless you are a pretty good
judge OF fowl, you can never tell how
tender it is going to be, SO l would
rather give it longer time in oven
and be very sure, as it will not
make any difference if it is ready an
hour too soon. You can keep it hot
and the flavor does not suffer any.
Don't add any more water to 1t (have
enough for sauce, thought, and if it
is browning too quickly just turn
pieces of chicken over or around.
When it is tender enough you can
easily pull it away from the bones,
and it is nearly ready to serve.
II the sauce is not thick enough to
suit lake up chicken on a platter.

My answer is an unqualified "Decid-
eddy wrong for young and irresponsi-
bic people, particularly girls, when it
is a question of whether or not they
should frequent cafes unchaperoned.
This. however. does not privilege the
more level-headed lass to have her
fling" for although it is not really
wrong" 1t is certainly indiscreet and
most unconventional. Besides, II
makes her the subject of more or less
unjust criticism; 1t is often the foe
to an otherwise unsullied reputation.
And taking things at their true value,
the heeting pleasure, more often i'm
aginary than real, of the night lights
is hardly worth the risk. If she must
dine "out," why not in a charming lit

the reason that the heat is in

scquently it only rubs off again ard

The best cleanser IS rag dipped in

while the stove is still warm. II the
burners are red from constant use an
oily rag will correct this, but backing
must never be used upon the perfor-
ated top. damp cloth will wipe off
any dust that may lodge there, but it
is good idea to cover the range with
a newspaper when walls or floor in the
kitchen are being swept The racks
in the oven should be removed at least
once week and be thoroughly scour-
ed with hot water containing common
soda applied with a stiff brush. Other
days a sheet of newspaper crushed and
rubbed over the bars will be sufficient.
You see. unless the grease is removed
frequently 1t will accumulate, and
some time when the oven is very hot
the fat will catch on fire, so there is
danger in neglect.
The drip trays need washing after
each using. These. too, need strong
soda water. Incidentally-whenb roil-

ter into the pan first as this will cool
the fat as it falls from the meat. If
one wants to broil very quickly and
SO uses the upper rack, the door
should always be left slightly ajar.
This will prevent the meat from catch
ing on fire as it is SO apt to do. When
cooking meat so close to the light it is
well to remove any surplus fat, also

There are still some women who
need reminding that the oven door
should always be opened before the
gas is lighted otherwise there may be
a small explosion. Just the smallest
leakage of gas will so result. The alb

is to first open the door, then turn on

to put out the pilot. Lastly close the
