Titled Hemp Eaters IIS "The electrical kitchen is not only admirable, it is ideal in its application of heat. It does not steal oxygen; it does not foul the air. It is steady; it can be directed to the top, bottom and sides of the thing to be cooked, for it does not depend upon the combustion of fuel or the connection of hot air, but upon the resistance of iron to electrical current. Instead of having to plan so that the cooking be done when the fire is in the range, the electrical kitchen is ready at any hour of the day or night to bake or broil. set the stewpun to sizzling or the hot water urn to bubbling, to brew the 50'clock tea or to disconnect the midnight Welsh rabbit from the fear that the alcohol bottle is empty and all the drug stores shut up; to temper the chill of the spare bed or to warm the toes under the desk; to heat the curling iron or the smoothing iron, all these appliances being connected by a flexible wire cord to asocket in the wall whence comes the energy. It is an exemplificatiun of the wholesale principle; instead of a thousand chimneys smoking at a tremendous sacrifice of cool, there need be but one big fire, whose heat is turned into motion, that into electricity, and that, In turn, back to heat again."

The oven that will not come up to the right temperature, or that will not bake on the bottom, the chimney that draws the wrong way when the wind is from the northwest, the dampers that refuse to do as they are bid, the kindling that burns out without lighting the coal, all tend to make cooks the most ill-tempered of mortals, The gas range is admirable in that it supplies a heat that can be tempered at will, but it fouls the air. It burns up the oxygen and leaves carbonic acid gas, and if there is agas stove [connection that does not leak alittle I have yet to see it.
