PR IC E S R E A SO N A B L E WORK G U A RANTEED Much of th e im portant w ork a t the United States governm ent arsen al at Frankfort, Pa., is in th e hands of women who are as skilled at making deadly weapons as are th e ir sisters as nurses in arm y hospitals o r on the fields of battle. They a re regarded as more trustw orthy, proficient and conscientious th an men, and a re in such demand in many d epartm ents that they are worked in two shifts. Even In the fuse room, w here th e most dangerous w ork Is undertaken, wom en a re employed and accidents are few and far betw een, due in a large m easure, it is declared, to th e g reater care taken by th e fem ale em ployees. Most of th e work in th e hands of the women is regarded as skilled la bor, and it is stran g e to see such cap tions as "Mary M athews, skilled labor er.” Every precaution is taken to safeguard th e w orkers and no one is overworked, b ut th e governm ent has gained a hundredfold since th e wom en have entered the arsen al as w ork ers. Each cartrid g e inspector in th e ar- sonal inspects 31,500 cartrid g es a day, in average th a t has been m aintained for several years. T his work is very Im portant, for th e slig h test defect, one not even to be detected by th e experi enced eye, m ight mean a p rem ature explosion and th e loss of an eye, limb or life to a soldier. I t is in terestin g to w atch th e girls, most of them quite young, handling the big machines, som e autom atic and some hand-fed, in th e rooms w here the cartridges a re tapered and clipped. In th is work eight girls arc employed and each one handles 33,000 cartrid g es a day. T h e girls em ployed on th e gauger are especially expert, and have been In th e arsenal a num ber of years. One girl gauges th e cartrid g es and tw o In spect them. T he gauger is also an ex pert inspector, and when th e supply gets too large for th e girls to handle she assists them. T he cartridge passes from th e gaug er to a weighing machine, and if the powdey shot Is th e slig h test degree underweight th e m achine throw s it out. Every cartrid g e is w eighed a second tim e. It Is in te restin g to note that not an underw eight cartrid g e has reached th e P hiladelphia section of the arsen al in five months.

All Have Three Forms. W HY FAMOUS PASTRY COOKS USE IS© B aking P owder The patrons of our first class hotels and restaurants are exact ing—they demand the best. Women go where the pastry and cakes are noted for their excellence. Men arc attracted by hot bread and biscuits—when fresh and moist and light. The pastry cook with a reputation uses Iv C Baking Powder because he knows that results are certain; every time everything is as good as his best. Then, too, with K C Baking Powder he can mix the various kinds of batter before the rush of the meal begins and bake as needed so that every order goes to the table fresh and hot, yet th e last he bakes are just as good as the first. The reasons behind these reasons is that K C is really a blend of two baking powders. One commences to give off leavening gas as soon as moistened. The other requires both moisture and heat to make it active. Dough or batter will remain in a partially leavened condition for hours, and when put in the oven, will come up as light as if mixed a moment before. For cookies, pancakes, doughnuts and the like, which cannot all be baked at once, K C is indispensa ble. For all baking the double raise makes doubly certain. 53 Follow th e exa m p le o f th e professional cook a n d yo u r b a kin g w ill be equal to his. Brooklyn Navy Yard.
