IN PLANNING the weekly menus with
table allowance Of about SIG the caterer
must bear in mind that the expenses for
some weeks will be more than others, and ricc

the next will be likely 10 drop to a fraction
over SIS, and so an average can be maintained
On Monday morning the carcass OF the duck
will probably contain a few shredS OF meat.
These, if combined with little Of the giblet
gravy and a few chopped olives, viii furnish
an appetizing luncheon Spread the salml on
rounds of hot buttered toast and you will find
that a very little Of the meat will be sufficient.
In considering the butcher bill for the
week. one pound Of liver viii be required for
the boulettes, six pounds and half Of beef
for the rib roast, ten pounds Of stewing NUT

The fish used should include two pounds of

Sterling Vegetable Sliccr
Made By ~ r. Streeter Company, Rochester, T
Y. and 81 Walker Street, New York


Housewives who pride themselves upon their
marmalade, and who are veteran slicers of
grapefruit and oranges, usually look askance
at any fruit and vegetable slicer offered for
their consideration.
at is all very well for potatoes and apples
they say, "or for any firm fruit or vegetable
that hasn't much juice. But just put in nice
juicy orange, lemon or grapefruit and see it
decorate your kitchen walls
IN fact, the general consensus of opinion
derived from bitter experience. seems to be
that the only way to slice oranges lemons or
grapefruit with vegetable sicer is to de
post the latter in the bottom of the bathtub
and get in with it.
But there's hope for the marmalade maker
I'm the Tribune Institute we tested the Sterling
Vegetable Sliccr on both oranges and grape
fruit We cannot conscientiousy say that 1t
did not spatter at all. for there was small
but unr1stakable spray that spattered the
table top three or four inches from the sides
OF the slicer. But it was a very small spatter,
and the person at the handle of the scer gave
no evidence Of needing either rubber apron
or a bathing suit.
That is why We can give the Sterling Vege-

Made by the Standard Electric Stove Company,
17ls-172O North Twelfth Street, Toledo, Ohio.
uF THE manufacturers keep on improving
electric stoves, the chances are that some
L. day they will reach the point of planning
the menu and doing the marketing, as well as
managing the cooking, and that they will re-
sent interference as much as any other kitchen
queen.
A really good electric range requires some
little attention it is true, but little that ITS
performance indicates rather higher pitch OF
intelligence than that of the average cook At
least it does precisely what it is told.
The Standard Electric Range is made In
number of sizes and styles, but each one Of
these will live up to everything that can be
expected of a range, because it viii perform
most adequately every process OF cooking.
Probably the most convenient of all are the
models which have the fireless cooker compart-
ment built in, as these allow roasts, soups,
cereals. vegetables-in fact, everything that
requires long, slow cooking-to be done with
the minimum of attention and the lowest fuel
cost.
The model tested in the Tribune Institute
laboratory was No Go. This is a cabinet range,
with the oven set at height convenient for
the average-sized woman; that is, 1t IS not
quite so high as the ordinary elevated oven
nor so low as the side oven.
This oven is lined with sheet aluminium, and
has round corners and a sectional glass door,
which allows the cook to keep watch Of the
progress Of whatever is cooking, without hav-
ing to cool the oven by opening the door. This
oven is quite large enough for all ordinary pur-
noses. as it measures - inches wide, y inches
high and Ii inches deep. 1t is equipped with
two open coil heating units-one at the top for
broiling and the other at the bottom for bak-
ing. roasting, ETC. Each of these units has
three heats. and when both are turned on

placed that its top is
level with the cooking top of the range. The
hot plates are cast-iron disks, below which the
heating clements are imbedded in clay COM
position. Each one is equipped with three
heat indicating snap switch. One great adj
vantage Of this working top is that the hot
plates and the freless cooker are set in row,
doing away with the usual arrangement, by
which some Of the cooking utensils must be at
the back of the stove. behind the others.
The freless cooker "wel" has tight-fttng
cover with an automatic steam release valve.
It is lined with sheet aluminium and provided
with aluminium kettles which fit closely into
the cooker. One Of these kettles holds eight
quarts, the other three quarts Also there are
two sectional kettles, divided pie-wise so that
three different foods can be cooked at one
time. In the bottom of the cooker Is the heat
ing unit or coorator. which consumes $50
watts.
The really intelligent feature Of the range
is the automatic clock regulator which turns
off the heat at any given time. The clock Is
sunk into the metal wall at the side of the
oven. The numerals on the dial are divided
as in an ordinary clock, but extend only to
As minutes, the assumption being that any
thing which requires longer cooking would be
done in the fireess cooker or given little
more personal attention by having the clock
started after the cooking was partly done.
One turn of the knob controlling the master
switch Of the range turns on the oven neat at
any one of the three heats indicated. Two turns
connect the switch with the clock regulator,
previously started When the hand reaches
the prescribed time, the switch is tripped and
the heat is turned off from the whole range.
The clock and mechanism are very simple,
easy to operate and can be used or not as de-
sired. The single turn of the master switch
makes it possible to use all the burners IN the
range without the clock, which controls their
operation only by the second turn.
The use of the clock makes it possible to
measure the heat and automatically regulate
its consumption, thus preventing the waste OF

Jify Jelly Glass
Made by Loring Lane & Co. Al Harrison Street,
New York, NJ Y.

This jelly glass does not need cap of par.
ATTN. Instead, the melted paraffn is poured
into deep groove in the top of the glass, into
which the metal cover fits. Put the jelly in
the glass, cool it and cover with "round" Of
paper and put on the cover, then pour melted
parafin into the groove.
This makes a perfect seal, and is a great
economy Of parafiin, because the groove will
hold only about one-fourth Of the amount that
is required to cover the top Of the glass. Also,
as the paraffin does not touch the Jelly, it can
be remelted and used again.
The cover has small wire clip, which is
lifted to remove the top. As rule, the par
ATTN clings to the cover as it comes off, fact
which greatly simplifies the cleaning Of the
groove. If, however, any scraps OF paraiin re-
main. it is very easy to take them out.
The Jiffy Jelly Glass looks very much like
the ordinary jelly glass. IL is made OF white
flint glass, with tapering sides, and is dstin
gushed only by the features noted above.
Price, 90 cents per dozen.

The Ardmore Carnegie library, located
ON Stanley Boulevard, will have nearly
5000 volumes when the new shipment
which has been ordered is received.
Nearly 1000 government documents are
being kept at the library. Besides the
books and government documents a Sc
| lection of the most popular magazines
on current events, literary and scien-
tific subjects are always on hand, ac-
cording TO Mrs. Myrtle Jones, librarian.
An effort is being made by Mrs Jones
and the library board to build up a H.
brary that will be of service to the
greatest number Of people. Special at.
tention is being paid to the selection
of children's books and books for boys
and girls. Representative books dealing
with science, history, literature, travel,
religion and most other subjects of pop
ular interest are being placed on the
shelves as rapidly as the limited funds
will permit.
Children are especially fond of ma
ture books and books containing a sto.
ry whose foundation is laid in foreign
country Mrs. Jones said. Books of
this kind are 50 popular with the young
people that we have TO rebind some
Of them almost every year. Aesop's ia
bles also is one of the most read books.
Some of these books are I'm the library
only a short time until the pages are
completely worn and are broken by con-
stant turning.
Some Of the older readers have hob.
bies the same as the little ones, Mrs.
Jones said. She has one reader who
reads nothing but history. Many OF
the readers cannot understand why
other people do not read the same things
they do. Local and international hap
penings will cause a demand for certain
kinds Of books. Right now many peo-
Pile call at the library to find out what
there is to be had on the Healdton oil
field Most people. Mrs. Jones said,
read books for general information. A
set Of books on social etiquette Is as
much in demand as any other set. More
than 10000 books were checked out Of
the library during the past year.
There is distinct difference between
summer reading and winter reading, she
said. A great deal OF reference work
is done in the winter and practically
none in the summer. Fiction and light
literature make the reading matter for
this time Of the year. When asked
