Uses of Confectioner's Paper

One of the cleanest and cheapest of money saving devices for housekeepers is confectioner’s paper. It Is thin, strong, amL flexible, and impervious to air and moisture. Housekeepers who bake only once a week will find it useful for wrapping up bread and cake to keep them from drying. It la especially useful tn the refrigerator. Instead of placing fresh meat or fish into a bowl or pan and covering with something about as large, wrap it In two thicknesses of this paper, prevent any absorption of moisture and any escape of odor, and save one-half as much spaoe as was required formerly. Leftovers of meat and the drier cooked vegetables can be kept in this way without losing thetr natural moisture. This paper is the only thing, except glass or porcelain, that will keep sandwiches and other picnic dishes fresh and modßt for several hours. . It always saves several times its cost In keeping food fresh and palatable.
