Ne VI APPLIANCE
FOR BREAKFAST
. K|TCHENET ETTING

Everyone who is kitchenetting
these days will welcome the advent
Of a new appliance that helps to
solve the morning meal problem.
1t is an electric stove rectangular
in shape with two open coll heat
ing units. 1t is specially designed
to be operated on a lamp socket.
At the right hand end are four
terminals and fitting the plug on
terminals one and two gives the
entire energy of $50 watts of cur
rent to boiling the kettle Of water
with which to make the morning
coffee.
When the water has boiled and
the coffee is made all that is nee
essary is to keep 1t hot so the cof-
fee pot stands over the still warm
unit while the current is trans
ferred to the other heating unit
through a simple adjustment of
the novel plug. Over this unit is
put the fry pan in which bacon
and eggs can be cooked, then by
another adjustment of the plug on
the terminals, the current Is divid-
ed so that $50 watts go to each
unit and toast is easily and quickly
made. Behold breakfast is ready!
But this handy little kitchenette
does not confine its field of useful
ness to breakfast for 1t will boil
water for the afternoon tea with
equal facility and make the toast,
it will warm baby's milk or 1t will
heat broth for the sick patient and
will lend its aid in multiplicity Of
ways, that become more apparent
with actual use.

door was not locked.
All Nurse Jane saw was a big
sprinkling can hanging high UP
on the side wall of the shed. And
from the sprinkling can there
dingled-dangled a short piece of
clothesline rope.
II wonder what would happen II
pulled that rope? ?" thought Nurse
Jane. "Tll do it." To pull the rope
she had to step in the box on the
floor. The box had some holes in
the bottom like a coffee strain
er, only not so many. And when
Nurse Jane was in the box and
took the rope. in her paw she was
right under the sprinkling can.
well, here goes!" said the musk :
rat lady. She gave ia hard pull, and
the next moment she thought she
was in the middle Of a heavy rain
storm! For water poured down all
over her. splashing her from head
to tail.

look like rain storm when / came
in. What in the world is this2"

WHEN THE MAN OF THE
HOUSE WASHES DISHES
1T is BY ELECTRICITY

''It's fine to entertain company on
Sunday, but the dishwashing was
always a problem. No one wanted
to do 1t but the maid has Sunday
afternoon and evening off, so we
solved the problem at our house
by installing an electric dishwash-
er. I did the dishes myself just to
prove few points for my own sat-
isfaction," said the man of the
house.
"Last Sunday we had ten peo-
pie to dinner. AS they were all
Interested in the operation of the
dishwasher, gave them a demon
stration. After the dishes were
ready for the washing, 1t took me
four minutes to place them prop
erly in the washer and three min
utes to do the actual washing, rims
ing and sterilizing. Within a few
minutes all the chinaware was
dried and ready to be taken out
and put away. 1t was only mat
ter of few more minutes to pol

the door and went out.
"All right" the muskrat lady
answered, but she didn't say she

But, no sooner had Uncle Wig

The woman of slightly full figure
usually has some difficulty in get
ting Just the frock or suit she
wants, for all designers do not take
the steps necessary to produce
slenderizing lines. This street frock
of navy serge, however. has been
made with the stout woman in
mind and is particularly suited for
her everyday needs.
1t is made on the popular coat
dress lines and this style is very
becoming to the larger women
Navy serge forms the coat part and
gray crepe forms the foundation
and narrow front panel. A con-
ventional design in gray forms a
yoke effect on the skirt. Square
buttons trim the front of the
bodice and the short sleeves. A
bit of ruching at the square neck
softens the severe line.
The dark woolen dress and felt
hat may seem to form an incon-
gruous combination with the para
sol, but Paris says it is all right
and so who will dare to say a word
against it?

Mary Pickford's first photograph
in 2 bathing suit.

Can 1t be that little Mary is 60
ing to help Mack Sennett out since
he has lost so many Of his famous
bathing beauties? These must be
some mysterious reason for her
donning a bathing suit. What?
She is merely ready for a swim in
her own private tank on the "Pick-
fair" estate.
No wonder I never thought OF
that, Who ever heard of motion
picture actress putting on a bath
ing suit for swim. Mary always
was different. however. and one
would expect her to do the unusual.
This is the first time Mary Pick
ford Fairbanks ever had her pic

that for a record in these days
since Mack Sennett doomed the

VACUUM WASHER FOR
CLOTHES Is LATEST
ELECTRIC APPLIANCE

The modern American woman
realizes by this time that it ism
rubbing that takes the dirt out OF
clothes. 1t is a process Of getting
soap and water through the fab
RIGS, dislodging the dirt. The cleo
trio washers offer a better method
of doing this than hand-rubbing.
A new electric vacuum clothes
washer turns out clean white
wash by air and water process.
When the washer is in operation,
the vacuum cups inside the tub
move up and down upon the
clothes. At the end of each up
ward stroke the cups rotate par
TALLY around the tub and come
down in a different position. Thus,
the wash is acted upon equally.
On the downward stroke as the
cups reach the water, they eptrap
the air and as the stroke continues
these air cushions press against
the clothes forcing the suds
through the pores of the fabrics
On the upward stroke a vacuum is
created which draws the soap So

ACE OF COOKING
BY ELECTRICITY
IS APPROACHING
Next Generation viii Con-
slider Electric Range a
Household Necessity;
MANY Are in Use Now.

Developments within less than
decade justify the conviction that
the day of electrical cookery in the
United States is drawing nearer
with every year that passes By
the time that the next generation
grows up, 1t is believed by trade
observers, the electric range will
have been established in countless
American homes.
Already there are 100000 cleo
trio ranges in use in practically
every section Of the country. 1t
has been noticed, however, that
the innovation--as it may still, per-
haps, be called--of cooking by
electricity has made rather more
striking progress in the west than
in the east.
Housewives had to be convinced
that it was more convenient and
especially that it was more
economical to cook by electricity
than by coal or gas range. But the
moment they began to try it, they
found it was so. They found espe-
cially that electrical cookery. is
clean, accurate and cool, as well as
convenient. They found that they
used every bit Of the heat which
they bought, wasting none OF It,
and that they need not have a bit
more of heat for cooking in the
kitchen than they needed.
Electric cookery has done much
to bring about special attention to
methods Of house wiring. The plan
of wiring a house for two circuits
has been advocated within the last
few years and has gained favor.
Under this method, one circuit is
used for the various electrical ap-
pliances that perform the work OF
tn house, including the electric
range, electric vacuum cleaner,
ironer. grill, toaster, clothes wash
er and others. Good results have
been obtained, it is declared, in
this direction. A still further ad-
vance is seen toward the much
discusse and all-electrical home
which il considered the inevitable
future abode of the modern Amer
tcan

UNCLE WIGGILYs SHOWER

BY Howard B. Garis

One day, when Nurse Jane Fuzzy
Wuzzy, the muskrat lady house,

hollow stump bungalow. she saw
Uncle Wiggily and Grandfather
Goosey Gander coming down the
path together.
"They're wonderful, Uncle Wig
silly! Simply wonderful" SAID
Grandpa Goosey. "You ought to get
one for yourself"
"I think I'll make one," said the
rabbit gentleman, as he twinkled
his pink nose to say "good-by!"

know, as Uncle Wiggily hoped up
the steps, while Grandpa Goosey
fluttered his wey back to his home
pen.
"Is supper ready?" asked the
rabbit gentleman, sniffing-like to
see If he could smell whether there
was going to be fried carrots or
broiled marmalade.

away" Nurse Jane answered. but
