HANDY TABLE FOR KITCHEN
Having Everything Handy for ths Cook Saves Many Steps In the Course of a Day,. First off if there are no shelves above the kitchen table she has some built, also a lower shelf on the table Itself. There she stands all mixing bowls for bread and cake; the rolling pin and board stand on the table shelf also. On the shelves above the table are all necessary provisions for the preparation of meals. There are jar* of flour, rice,*Bugars, spices; there are bottles of olive oil, vinegar, etc., for salads. * Then, hanging from little hooks screwed into the edge of these upper ehelves are all the instruments of preparation which will not fit into the table drawer. There are can opener, corkscrew, potato masher and many others. One well-known housewife invented an excellent device- to save work. Every cook knows how many dishes are dirtied in paring potatoes, fruits and vegetables. This wcman had a nice, new,, clean refuse pail put on the lower shelf of her kitchen table and directly above it she had a circle of wood cut out of the upper shelf, so that it opened right down into the top of the pail.—Exchange.
