dertake light Housekeeping,
either for herself alone or in
company with another girl. she

problem lis comparatively simple. In
this case it will be possible to have a
little greater variety without quite such
careful planning as is required of the
girl who depends entirely on small
electric grill It will pay any girl
make q small freless cooker. Indeed.
it would be worth it's weight in gold,
literally speaking, to the light house
keeper. Buy p small one, and do not
look at the first cost. but keep in mind
the many dollars that 1t will save you
during the course of a year. 1t will
also save time, labor and heat.
II you feel that you cannot buy one
at any price, go to the public library
and get directions for making a sim
pie one, OF write 10 tno department OF
agriculture and ask for copies of its
pamphlets containing directions for
making a f1reless cooker at home. Any
one can do it with these plain direc-
tions. / cannot conceive of any busi-
ness girl trying to do successful light
housekeeping without some sort of a
fireless cooker. With 1t you can have
q hot cereal for breakfast. which has
been cooking while you slept, ard hot
vegetables. meat stews, soups and pud-
dings that have been cooking gently
all day with no fear Of burning while
you worked at the Office.

ment will accomplish your purpose
