Boring Rubber Corks.

To bore a hole in a rubber cork is
problem to anyone who does not
know the trick, but simple enough
when that is known. 1t is to moisten
the borer with little of fairly
strong (say 10 per cent? solution of
caustic soda or potash. 1t will then
cut the rubber with little more diff
Guilty than it will cut cork.

NTO MATTER how closely we may
~ have to economic, the Christmas
dinner Is always a special one,
and its cost must be planned for by
extra economy during the week pre-
ceding the holiday.
With this idea in mind the menus for
the coming week, while well balanced
cheaper food materials, and instead Of
costing from SIT to $18 (the usual
weekly f1gures) they may be purchased
for about $l4.
Meat is served only for three Of the
dinners during the week and the
varieties of fish are selected from those
Of the cheaper. grades. Cold storage
eggs are bought exclusively, the dairy
products are used with sparing hand
and both fruit and vegetables are pur-
chased with view to economy.
In preparing the corned beef hash a
small slice Of cooked beef is bought.
This finely chopped and combined with
chopped, cooked potatoes, cooked beets,
raw onion and a bit of minced green
pepper will, furnish a delicious luncheon
dish at very small cost.
Cook sufficient baked beans to allow
for enough to make the bean salad
for Saturdays luncheon This is true
economy of both time and money, as 1t
takes but few additional beans and
no more time in making the original
dish, while the leftovers will furnish
the basis of good salad that costs
practically only few cents
Plan the cereal for Mondays break
fast so that it can be used in making
the waffles for the following mornings
breakfast, and serve them with brown
sugar syrup, favored with vanilla ex-
tract and ground cinnamon.

which Immediately betrays the need
Of cleaning and also makes it easy.
One giant burner, three medium and

porcelain-handled, half-turn valves.
Beneath the cooking top is a pot
and pan shelf 21 by 21 inches and
6.5 inches high. A shelf rs inches
deep and 24.5 inches wide is placed
under the small hood and con-
venlently above the cooking top.
Abundant cheated table space" is
thus provided for handling all of
the courses of an elaborate meal.
Any cook will appreciate this point.
Furthermore, the two oven doors
drop down and are braced so that
they can be used as shelves, thus
increasing still further the capa-
clousness of the stove. The handles
remain cool at all heats and oper-
ate smoothly.
The oven is 1876 inches wide, 20
inches deep and IL inches high,
with eight grooved rests for the
support of the two trays at different

i A NY woman who has ever

baking of bread, an angel
cake, an apple pie or boiling ham,
7 making many inspections and lower
ing and raising the heat, will appre-
ciate the really practical advantage
given by the thermostatic control
! Of this oven. You set the heat
regulator (shown on the side Of the
oven) by merely placing the
pointer marked "Lorain" opposite
any desired temperature on the
wheel, and the oven will hold this
temperature as long as the gas is
+ on. 1t takes no scientific knowledge
or mechanical skill to do this-and
+ you can leave the food to the care
Of the regulator without any
anxiety.
+ Actual tests showed that the
regulator held the oven at the de-
sired temperature at every point,
varying 10 degrees at the most. A
very low temperature for simmer
ing, as in the case of the boiled
ham, is perfectly and safely main
tanned without watching. This
would be admirable also for cook
ing cereals over night. At any
time, for browning, the tempera-
ture can be raised merely by
changing the indicator and nothing

how many perfect recipes are

does not know that a slow oven Is
