Why Are Marbles Placed Inside Boil
Ing kettlesf

In these days of gas stoves and rapid
heating the old fashioned kettle of
hot water has almost passed out of
existence, though il still survives in
many rural communities as well as
in homes which cling to the old way
of doing things. Here 1t is that we
will almost invariably find a marble
at the bottom of each kettle, placed
there by the careful housewife who
knows that it will prove of material
assistance in aiding her to keep the
inside of the utensil clean and spot
less.
While this might, at first glance,
appear to SAVIOR of superstition, the
practice is founded upon certain
definite natural laws. the principle of
which is that the boiling water re-
leases some of the acids and minerals
in the water and these would nat
urally have some effect upon the in
terror of the kettle, either coating it
with an encrustation Of salts or eat
ing away part of the metal. The
marble. however, serves to attract
these foreign elements. the acids sink
ing into the porous substance and
the salts gathering easily upon its
roughened surface, thus saving the
kettle and prolonging it's life.
