BRO|LED BY ELECTRIC HEAT
 BROWN AND JUICY

A beefsteak broiled over the live coals of dying wood fire is consid- cred a most appetizing treat for the family table. The broiling process seals the pores of the meat ard retains most of the juices and the flavor which are the secrets of an appetizing dish. When the meat is placed on a heated platter and cut for serving the rich juices run out and make delicious gravy for potatoes or bread.
 But. there are many annoying de-
 tails attendant on such a method of cooking the steak and not the least of these is the fact that kitchens now adays especially in towns and cities. are not equipped with the open coal fire or the dying wood fire. And even IT they were, the cook would not find it very pleasant to hold the steak in a broiler over the scorching fire for several minutes. There is however an electrical appliance which supplies heated coils of wire to take the place or the live coals or the dying wood fire.
 It takes only few minutes time and perhaps two cents worth of eIec- tricity to brown the steak beautifully without any of the discomforts of inc hot coal fire and in doing this the mother may sit at the table. with the iamiiy- and serve the steak hot from the glowing coils instead of rushing aDout the kitchen and keeping the meal waiting in order to have inc steak done just right. One of the many advantages of the electrical appliances ,s tnal they are not only practical but handsome enough to adorn the table.
