Irritation di rected to the stove Is finite fre quently directed towards other things, and there Is ample ground for a chronic Ki'ouch.

It Is a wisp htishand who sees to It that this inoHt important of kitchen tools 1m the best one tho purse, can buy.

Is Hi mil insurance for fmnily con tentment. lu order to set into the satisfac tory elass. the rane must fust of all have an uvea which hakes evenly.

Another requisite for the satis factory ratine. Is cleanliness. A stove (hat burns a dirty, ash-pro. duelntf fuel meets with scant favor in these days of immaculate kitch ens and white hands.

The con ference decided that Its campaign against Hoover would taKe ' the form of a personal canvas-of the i I oover delegates In aii effort to turn them away from their candi date, v." Queen Anne front and Mary Ann hack! Koine one has said, "What doth It profit a family to have n clean parlor ff they have n dirty well?' - or mayhap, the most modern of living rooms with the gleam of rare mahogany, a. glow of lovely old andirons. Looks, a radio, deep cushiony chairs, colorful drapes, oriental rugs and a kitchen that hangs Its head lu shame; you know what I mean dilapidated stove, calico-curtained cupboards und a motley collection of mops and brooms and tnilk bottles at the hack door a typical Mary Ann back! Now. our idea of kitchens Is changed from the old days, when the ugly coal range was the altar of the home: when cooking meant dragging til ed feet over a cold kitchen floor In an endless round of preparation, and u sink was an unknown quantity. We persist that we need hyacinths to feed the kouI, and where better Uian In Hie kitch en the working living-room of the home-maker. If we Heein to philosophize it's because it's In the average American kitchen. Trtie, we've cajoled Aineihan builders into planning for us smaller kitchens. Whenever we can by similar measures, or other wise, get American plumbers to adjust the sink for the conveni ence of the height of the user and not the thirty inches of the plum ber'a religion, truly Utopia for womankind will have come! The kitchen Is primarily a place for the preparation of food and in order to do it hiost -efficiently it should he divided into four units, so to speak nothing more than routing the equipment in a step simeu, so that there is not enough living order ami the utilization of waste space in the kitchen to, as Mark Twain said, swing a -cat by the tail provided you 'have the eat, of course! Speaking of units, there should he first : The cooking center, in volving the pi-npM- placing of the stove where it will be convenient to the kitchen cabinet or work table ami sink. The second unit includes the cooler or refrigerator In which perishable supplies are kept, and a cabinet in which uten sils are conveniently nrrnnged and on which vegetables and fruit are prepared for cooking. Tho third unit is the serving center, located near the rouge and dining room. Finished dishes would then he set on the service wagon (they do save so many step) and taken to the dining table. The fourth unit then Is the dishwashing center and from the range It should he just a step to the sink to wash cooking utensils with cupboard close by for stowing them away. 4 The Dictator Stranger So, you are the post master, storekeeper, justice of the peace ami constable of this town? Native Vassir! You might say I'm the Mussolini of lluckeye Cor tu r. Hven the most experienced cook admits that it is impossible to Judge oven temperatures acrttrate 1;, and the poor little novice h:.s a dreadful time of it. The time mtiyt vary if the heat is not exoct, and it seldom Is exact hy guess. When a group of women begin to talk about cooking, one word which romes into frequent use is "luck." Strange to say this is sel dom applied to foods cooked on the lop burners, hut to cakes and pies and the various dishes which the oven produces. When the same ingredients and the same method of mixing give different results, manifestly the recipe Is not to blame. 77 'is the time and temperature which make baking uncertain. To take the "lurk" nut of bak ing, or rather to keep It there, stove manufacturers have devised an automatic heat control of ovens. The temperature indicator may he set for any heat, which is speci fied in netual degrees, and the gas flow automatically adjusts to maintain it. It is never necessary to guess how hot the oven should he for cup cakes, and the results will he just as unwavering as the heat. The oven does not become hotter with stored heat, as is the case with a steady flame, as the I la me cuts down to maintain iho designated temperature. ' Oven heal control is a boon to the Inexperienced cook, for when used in connection with n reliable reel ie It gives u ecu rale results every time. For. the piatced cook it means no more guessing, at oven temperatures, no more peeking in the oven to see if the flame should he turned up or down. The most delicate of cakes may he safely in trusted to the oven regulator and are perfectly raised ami browned" at the appointed time. Tiny I lame Sufficient Whole meals, cooked in the oven with no watching, are easily pos- Sill s Painting breakfast furniture io harmonize with ihe kitchtn interior is popular these days. Unpainted fiinture may be purchased at .'urni ture stores and an easy and uick application of "Lacq" will do the vrick. , siblu with the oven regulator. A I meal that is to cook all afternoon ! while the housewife Is away or 'busy in another part of the house, 'requires a very low heat. liven a tiny me. In the ordinary oven, I will gradually raise the tcmpera ' ture so that at the end of the j afternoon the oven is hotter than j should he. Then, loo, the houxe ! wife is loath to go away and leave a very, low fire burning, for fear that It will go out, if. for iii.tnre, a sudden draft should sir ike it . i With the heat control a tiny pilot flame, fully capable of relighting I I he burner, stands guard :ig lini iany such happening. If the oven becomes too hot the burner goes jou' entirely leavm,? lb.- pilot stilt burning. When the own co.ds b.--; low the staled temperature, aulo jmatlcally the gas romes on, to be lighted by the pilot. Bride Today Has An Easy Time Doing Cooking I Keys with tops notched to form a convenient bottle opener have 'been placed on the market, lil.mks j of this pattern are available so ' that smiths may fashion a key of i any desired form from them. 1 We still smile sympathetically at the recollection of lite little bride of a generation ago whose progress 1 .along the culinary path was mark- ed by scorched pies, burned fin eis 'aod tears, but We aec- pt a dinner ' invitation from the modern novice cook without hesitat Ion. This state of affairs is not due to any change in women them selves, but to a change 'in comti .tiotis. Twenty year a&o a gtil went to housekeeping with a note. : l k full of rules. The modern bride advises us to send our sympathy where It is : needed, not to waste it on her. I'or !a cookbook she selects the tested recipe of a food authority, gets a ( good stove and cooks without nsted effort. 1 Qfou are Invited to attend as our Guest a4da, P S0 c - JaM SAN FItANCISCO.

June ol'i hi view of some special dispatches from Tientsin, published In Tokyo, inti mating strained relations between the American und Japanese garri sons, the war office stated today that It has received official report from Tientsin declaring that tho friendliest rotation existed. Evaporation of greases while frying is unnecessary. If you have ever noticed a yellow flame arising from '.he skillet lu which you are fiying, just remember that this is caused by the . evaporation of grease's, been use they are volatile. However, if you fry too quickly j there will, of course, be grease j evaporated.
