live in a community that offers a
special electrical cooking rate would
not think of doing her cooking by
any other method.
The electric range has had long,
uphill road to travel in order to
attain recognition. Now that more
and more women are coming to
appreciate its manifold achieve.
tnents, 1T is daily becoming more
popular. Yet for the last fifteen
years the electric range has been
endeavoring to impress a wholly in
different public, and only today is
1t becoming at all successful in
these attempts.
The most healthful and efficient
way to cook is indisputably the
electrical way. This was diScov.
cred to be true with the advent of
the percolator, the toaster, grill and
waffle iron, which only paved the
way for the larger and more com.
prehensive device that could do
the whole bag of tricks"-the
electric range.
1t does away with standing over
blazing stove; it can practically
cook the meals for you while you
are out of the house, if need be,
and it is a cool, practical, health.
full way to cater to the culinary
demands OF your family. The heat
in an electric range is properly con.
trolled. Your foods do not tougher
over a too-slow fire or scorch on
too-hot one. There are three
degrees of heat-low, medium and
high-which give ample opportunity
for your quickest, surest and best
means Of capably performing very
necessary household duty and is
far from being luxury" as il
was at first considered.
AS matter of fact, the electric
range has proved its worth, both
from the standpoints of saving time,
labor and energy as well as the
conservation OF food. There is SO
much less shrinkage Of meats thar
are cooked electrically that this
one fact alone merits your consid-
Grafton.
The electric range stands ready
to be your faithful and competent
servant, if you will give it a
chance.

Husband Cleans Car
With His Wife's
Electric"

Transpose "What is sauce for
the gander. is sauce for the
goose" and you have the opin-
ion in a nutshell of at least one
husband. Viewing with envy
his wife's accomplishments with
their electric cleaner through
out their home, he decided he
should be able to put said
cleaner to uses peculiarly his
own. To his delight he discov-
cred it was a marvel ct 1lcaIi-
ing the inside of their smartly
upholstered car. Now he is one
of the strongest advocates of
Doing it electrically"
Moreover" adds friend wife,
che has a convenience outlet in
the garage to which he attaches
a heater to keep the engine from
freezing in the winter time. He
also has battery charger which
he attaches to this outlet and
which charges the storage bat
terry without Juggling it out, as
heretofore. The joke of it is
that he's now so enthusiastic he
has converted all the car owners
in our neighborhood to these
electrical practices and short
cuts"

ELECTRIC TRUCK
FAVORED BY :.
EXPRESS CO.
1t Cuts the Cost OF Short
HauIs, Says Robert
z. ~. Cowie.

The American Express places its
approval upon the electric truck.
Watch us grow!' cried Robert z.
M. Cowie defiantly to the skeptics
in the big audience at the 1922 con-
vention of the National Electric
Light Association, and as Mr.. Cowie
happens to be the vice president OF
the American Railway Express, the
largest users Of electric trucks in
the world, his words carry weight.
With the marked growth Of his
company came the necessary addi-
ton of hundreds Of electric trucks,
which replaced gasoline trucks and
horse-drawn delivery wagons.
Business men the world over
watch the growth or retardation OF
express companies closely, for they
act as business barometers to the
mercantile world, being just as cs-
sential as is the parcel post de-
partment to the post office. They

tions over the sections of the coun-
try in which they operate. With

spots of the Nation.
The American Express has been
asked why it did not operate at
low rates as does the parcel post
department.. In his speech Mr.
Cowie replied to this query wittily,
to the effect that the American Elk
press had mo loving Uncle Sam to
pay the taxes, rents, insurance
| rates, and SO forth, on the various
properties of the company" Every
thing must be paid for. He might
have added, truthfully too, that the
| lowest insurance rate paid on any
of the express company's property
! was the rate paid on electric trucks
and their garages.

truck in the seriously congested

to Mr.. Cowie, factors in the rise
in popularity of the electric truck.
A comparison of the three
methods Of trucking in the garage
and stabling department of the
American Railway Express on Forty
second street, New York, will con
vince any remaining skeptics that
this great business concern has
! found the correct answer to the
question: What is the best method
of urban vehicular transportation?
When one considers that a huge
growing concern in which executives
are especially employed to study
the most economical methods OF
transportation and maintenance OF
deliveries has placed its stamp OF
approval upon the electric truck
further argument seems futile
These men are ina position to know
the truth.
I'm the long run electric trucks

says the electrician, who is thor.
| oughly conversant with all angles
of the hauling problem and who
knows by experience that he has
fewer complaints to handle from the
! electric repairing department than
would be reported in a gasoline
truck department.

CRISP, GOLDEN
TOAST MADE
ON GRILL
Some Advice on How to Select
Electric Devices for
Light Cooking.

Some folks find crisp, golden
brown toast as necessary to Their
breakfast satisfaction as clear, am
Der coffee. So prevalent has this
taste become that you will often
hear people saying that. in their
particular homes, especially in the
summer time, toast has become
virtually their breakfast food.
Now the cooking of toast is an
art, and an art, by the way, that
Is well nigh impossible of execu-
ton unless it is accomplished on
an electric toaster. No other means
of cooking gives that even, crisp
brown without burning or drying
up the bread.
If your family is fond Of toast
it is absolutely essential, however,
that you have one of the standard
correctly designed electric coasters.
A recent survey Of the electric ap-
pliance field showed that there are
some coasters on the market that
will not give satisfaction and it is
therefore up to the purchaser to
buy the type that will do the work
correctly.
A toaster that supplies too intense
heat will burn the bread before it
| is toasted. Or it may be so con-
structed that it will leave blank
strip quarter of an inch wide
| along the bottom of the slice of
bread. Some coasters will not take
the bakers standard size twenty,
four ounce loaf. Or, again, If the
| bread is toasted evenly but slowly
| it will dry out before it is toasted.
But the manufacturers of the
| better American made coasters have
| overcome the aforesaid difficulties
so that on any quality appliance
you can make toast that will be as
| ambrosia for the gods.

The electric range, like the motor

fact If one has taken pains to

We do not mean to say that cook

that are unique. So unusual arc

IF RHEUMATIC
EAT NO SWEETS.
Says Glass of Salts Helps to over
come Rheumatism
Acid.

rheumatism is easier to avoid tnaI
to cure, states well-known author
ity. We are advised to dress warmly
keep the feet dry, avoid exposure, ana
above all, drink plenty of good water
and avoid eating sweets of all kind.
Rheumatism is caused by body
waste and acids resulting from 1000
fermentation. 1t is the function OF
the kidneys to filter this poison from
the blood and cast it out in the urine;
the pores of the skin are also a means
of freeing the blood of this impurfty.
In damp and chilly cold weather the
skin pores are closed, thus forcing
the kidneys to do double work; they,
become weak and sluggish and fall
to eliminate this waste and acids,
which keeps accommodating and. circu-
lating through the system, eventually
settling in the joints and muscles,
causing stiffness, soreness and PAIN
called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon
full in glass of water and drink for
week. This is helpful to neutralize
acidity, remove waste matter, also TO
stimulate the kidneys, thus often rid
ding the blood of rheumatic poison.
