If you use n Tireless cooker, you will save time, for the food can be cooking while you are doing some other work about the house. If you usc a tireless cooker, you will be able to serve better food. Many foods cooked at h low temperature for a long time have a much better flavor, and breakfast cereals so cooked are often considered more wholesomeIf you use a fireiess cooker you will save fuel and your kitchen will be a much more comfortable place in which to work, especially in hot weather. Materials You Will Need. J These materials plus a few hours' work plus ordinary common sense will produce the tireless cooker you want and need in your kitchen: t tightly-built wooden box or lard firkin, large enough to allow at least four inches packing: around the "well" or inside pail 10c to I3c 1 metal pail without handles and with tisht-flttinar rover.

The duplicate or triplicate kettles purchased to fit the well of your cooker are not absolutely necessary if you own other pans which fit, but they are much more convenient and aid in making the cooker more efficient. If it is necessary that the cooker he moved, casters will make this easily done. The following directions for making a cooker are given by the states rela tions service.

Construction on Same Principle as Refrigerator. When Used to Keep Food Cool It Must Be Chilled to Desired' Temperature Is Convenient to Make Many Cold Drinks. CPrepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Tlie fireiess cooker can be used to keep food cold as well as hot. because heat cannot pass In to warm the eontents any more than It can pass out and cool them. In this respect It works very much like a refrigerator. In .fact, both the cooking box find the ice box are constructed cm th same principle supplying a constant-temperature chamber with non-conducting walls. Well-constructed Ice boxes are made with some Insulating material or dead air space between the Inner f.n.I outer walls, end the covers and floors close In such a way as to- prevent test passing In or out. Of course, tlie acre often the Coors are opened, the more best passes ia end the mors Quickly the ice rtelts and the temperature rises.

Try it and see. How to Make the Cooker. Scour firkin, let- it dry thoroughly, and put in casters. Line with several thicknesses of newspaper tacked to sides. Put in solid layer of excelsior about 2 inches thick. This should be at least 2 inches thick, but might well be more If the firkin is deep enough to perm'it. Fit asbestos around pail and wire or tie it firmly. Cut circle of asbestos a little larger than the size of the pail and place on top of the 2-inch layer of excelsior. Set pail on top of this and weight before starting to pack around it in order to avoid having the pail move out of place. Put in small amount of excelsior around pail, distributing it evenly. Pound down with handle of hammer or something else heavy. Continue packing excelsior and pounding down until It is about onehalf inch from rim of bucket. The more solidly the excelsior Is packed, the more efficient will be the fireiess cooker. Cut cardboard collar to fit between Inside well (or pall) and outside the wood container and set in place. Cover this with mixture of plaster paris 1 part plaster parls to 2 parts of water. In putting on mixture avoid having layer come up above rim of pail. If not thin enough to put on smoothly, rub down with fingers or with knife blade. Paint after plaster of paris has dried thoroughly. Fill pillow full enough to make it fit snugly between well top and lid. Fasten lid with hinges if box is used. Definite directions for using the fireless cooker and some recipes for dishes which can be successfully cooked In it can be procured from your state agricultural college or your home demonstration agent. Have your cooker ready for the recipes they will send you on request. a fireiess cooker rather than In a freezer because there Is less danger of them becomlntr too cold and hard. It is often convenient to make cold drinks, like lemonade or fruit punch, some hours before they are used. By chillin,; them and placing In the cooker they can be kept cool without Ice. Sometimes a little ice is put into th box with the food to make It cooler, just as hot soapstones or bricks are put In to make it hotter. Because there is less space to keep cool, much less ice needed than In the chamber of an Icebox. The ice in the cooker melts slowly and so keeps the temperature down much longer than if It were used in an open pitcher.

Diisfgns Which Almost Cover Surface.

Vidt and Bouffant Skirts With Rather Tir.ht Bodices Are In Evidence Silken Gowns Are Bcruffled. After all is said and done, for the perfect summer wardrobe no gown ever gives quite as much satisfaction as dies the one of some soft and clinging wilkiof a quiet color which permits it to be worn on any and all occasions. For this reason, observes a prominent fashion correspondent, the lovely foulards never seem to lostheir popularity and year after year find their faithful friends who exploit them 'with undying devotion. The newest weaves and designs in this sort of silk are resplendent in their huge sprawling effects which almost entirely cover the silken suface of the blue. White is usually preferred to all other tones though the sand and champagne shades are coming a good deal into favor especially for a combination of foulard and georgef e. One of the most satisfactory combinations, indeed, is achieved when these two fabrics are placed together. Since the, smock is so important this summer and the chemise blouse is

equally as much in demand, some excellent results are obtained by combining a georgette jacket with short French sleeves tipped with foulard !ind a belt of the silk slipped over a Skirt of the foulard silk. To further enhance the beauty of the simple Jacket or overblouse a deep hem of the foulard may be placed along the bottom edge. One of the happiest results in summer thing is the effect of smart simplicity for one wants to get away from the heavier and elaborate affairs of other seasons the sort of dress just described is enchanting because of Its extreme simplicity. It has been well developed In a gray foulard with a round cherry colored figure scattered Over the surface, the silk being used for the skirt and a gray georgette Of the exact shade being employed for the .ofr loose blouse. A preference for very narrow belts is noted and In this instance a mere ribbon string of cherry color is entwined about the waist with one of grny. The Spanish Vo jue. Just who Is responsible for the Spanish vogue no one seems to know, but that there is such a vogue no one can deny. Even In the matter of skirts one finds again and again the wide and bouffant models with rather tight bodices which are so often observed in Spanish paintings. The effect is achieved often by the addition of wide, ar.d very full ruffles placed rdong the bottom of the skirt which standing out give the desired effect of extra fullness. Black taffetas and henna-colored hiffoa have been happily placed together in a dress of the Spanish type. The taffeta is embroidered in henns. silk and used to form a rather tight petticoat, over which fall wide side draperies from under a long pointed "basque." Down the front of the petticoat are placed henna silk tassels, which give a most unusual effect. wlrJe. the crossed pieces of the waist, rr d li t.,e b p r 'rt In fr. ait, lecnll 1 rrtrrilf cf Irr.g r.co.

The tiny sleeves of ehiffoa are edsred with the bright blue feather trimming placed almost like a fringe around the armhole and down the front of the bodice also. This Is intended to illustrate the novel way in which the feather trimming can be employed, for the result is certainly striking enough for only the most daring to adopt. The summer silken gown Is finding itself bernffled in a way we have not seen in many yea'fs. A particularly youthful model in n ruif.ed skirt is a black taffeta with the same tight little narrow skirt women have been wearing for - some time. Tiny frills of black net placed very close and from the top to the bottom of the skirt relieve the effect of skimpine-: and make the whole very soft ait'.', sight. We need not attempt to deny the fashion of the black taffetas gown everything that clever nwikers and designers can do to take away its old and stiff look has been done as is seen in this charming model. The bodice is not quite so hefrilled as the skirt, but reproduces the tiny net frills in small clusters down the front iu a vestee shape. The sleeves are likewise finished with the frills and a wide flowing sash of the net finishes the dress prettily. Of course. In the demand for a dress of service for summer wear, such as a shopping expedition into the city from one's country place may demand, the darker tones are given preference and the tricolette, georgette and voile rank in favor with the foulards. We see less of the veiled foulards than last season displayed though they were such pleasing frocks with the big sprawling surfaces softly hidden under voile or georgette that possibly there may be a revival later on. Chaliia Popular. Strange to say, challis Is having a rage such "as no other fabric, not even tricolette can boast. The soft woolen material is esteemed for the utility dress as developed ia the silks. The darker tones are likewise chosen In this, and collars, cuffs and sashes of crisp white organdie added for morning wear. Challis were popular 25 years ago, but for some reason they hare not been much" used except for little girls dresses and dainty boudoir gowns. Now, however, one's possession of a challis frock stamps one as being well aware of fashion's latest whim. Hats and parasols made of the same material as the dress are much seen. The challis hats, like the dresses, have organdie trimmings put on either in little fluting along the edge or that are tied in a wide bow ia front. The psrasols also repeat the organdie raffles. ' Tlipre Is a certain deraureness and qaaiatness cboat this old-time material which suggests quiet country towns End restful rural life, for though people ia large cities have for so long forgotten chains, those who live in less hurried and crowded places seem always to keep a 'best challis for "occasions."
