DINNER Il..'KED wITHOtT TIRE. Before dinner is announced, a maid enters w itb a tray for the afternoon cup of tea. She places It before ler mistress, and after adjusting the plug attached to a flexible cord leading from the water kettle into • socket in the wall near by, departs. The water is soon boiling furi- ously, and by the time the cups are ar- ranged, the tea is ready for serving. Soon the completed dinner is announced, and the writer is ushered out to a meal cooked, and well cooked, but not by coals of fire. There are no burned spots on the meat, nothing scorched and no- thing underdone, but the crooking is rather of the order of perfection of a dinner prepared in the old, evenly heat- ed brick evens. The electrical baking. oven, in which this meat has been so perfectly prepared, is heated entirely from the inside, and by asbe.tos packing and burnished external surfaces all ra- diation to the outside air is checked, .o that the heat generated is entirely used in the operation of cooking. External vessels seated on the top of the stove are not generally used in cook- ing by electricity, but each saucepan, kettle. fryinpan, griddle, or 'broiler is provided withits own electrical heater, and only while cooking is being done is any current used to a particular utensil. age My guest was teal:: years of age. the daughter of retined parents the father, • judg: 01 great reputation iu his men State ; the mother, thoroughly domestic, but • wise ruler in her own home, its I learned bo- fore seeing thedaurbter. flu the day ot her arrival, my young trend showed mea Ions list of purchases ber mamma had given her to make. 1 sighed inwardly an 1 danced over it, think- ing That means • day s shopping for me - and sur!: • responsibility.

Another simple drink is made by dropping a quantity of fresh leuinc peel into wide-mouthed bottles of good vine- gar.
