But Just as Emancipation Has Come
Frem Many Other Things, Se
Has It Come Frem Kitchen Drudgery
And the new kitchen is a cool, comfortable place te be. Housekeeping is
the greatest business in the world and the kitchen that reflects the progress
of the age is organized as the main producing part of any great business ought
te be organized.
Fresh and sweet and with the means te keep it that way. Coel, pleasant,
cpngenial with the things with which te work right at the finger tips and the
never failing mechanical helps that banish drudgery.

JJfew Many Hours a Day De
-" Yeu Spend in Your Kitchen?
If you de your own work, a moderate estimate is
two hours three times a day total, six hours, during
which, if net actually in the kitchen every moment, you
are liable te be there at ANY moment, looking after
things.
Yeu ewe yourself every Summer comfort avail-
.able, te counteract the inevitable discomforts attending
the preparatibn of warm meals in warm weather.
Possibly you reckon the time you spend daily in
; your kitchen in minutes, in place of hours.
This means that somebody else spends her day

serving for you. Gracious, that somebody is valuable

Fer years, home managers from miles around
Philadelphia have looked te the Wanamaker
Heusefurnishirtg Stere for the newest, best, most
practical things for the kitchen.
The confidence that has been theirs through all
the years can be mere complete than ever today.
Net only are the geed things first at Wana
maker's, but they are best here.
Cheaper things, by the score, a woman can buy,
but utensils that are as solid and geed as her home,
make up this helpful company at Wanamaker's,
and years of service will prove them the most
economical.

Se, while buying the new perch rugs and the fine
perch furniture, and hanging the bedrooms with the
pretty Summer draperies, don't forget te attend te the

YJLThat's the Week's
" V Warmest Day ?
Tuesday!
the day when the iron is plying in laun
dry or kitchen.
Monday may be blue, but Tuesday 's
liable Je be red-het!
First see that that iron is an
electric one, if you've net done se al
ready. Were one te wire the whole
house for the sake of having that single
household convenience, it would pay in
lightened laundry labor and lessened
cost of fuel.
And were one te come te Wanamak-
ier's solely for the sake of getting the
WVanamaker Electric Iren, if would be a
aying trip.
This iron, which is triple-plated with
fine, polished nickel, weight six pounds
(the average family size), has a 'new,
handy feature this year, in the form of
a little projection which acts as the iron
stand, and it is only SIX DOLLARS
complete, with cord and plug.
We knew of no better electric iron
for the money.
But if you'll come te the
Fourth Fleer (Central), we will
show you something that is" better
than ANY electric iron, and that
is the "Utence" ironing machine.
The "Utence" is net a mere mangle,
like many se-called electric ironers, but
an efficient, all but intelligent machine,
which really irons, and which irons ALL
of the clothes net just some of them, or
the majority of them, but 100 per cent
of them !

that can set pleats, iron cellars, cuffs,

cylinder) ; a machine at which the opera

Its new low price, including a heat
gauge and attached rack, is $145 for a
machine heating by gas; $170, one heat

by electricity.
Something Else Yeu Can

is te install in the kitchen your, or your
cook's or laundress' workroom what
your husband, as a matter of course, in
stalls in his business office for his own
or his stenographer's comfort an elec
tric fan.
The ether days when the kitchen
needs a fan in Summer are Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and
Monday.
Call it luxury if you will, or call it
downright necessity (the stenographer
usually does), what spot needs it mere,
or better deserves it?
Just new we have assembled in the
Heusefurnishings Stere a group of effi
cient electric fans at unusually low
prices.
An eight-inch fan, with brass blades,
running by either alternating or direct
current, is only $10.50.
Hew little te pay for the assurance of
a tolerable atmosphere in the kitchen,
even en baking day or canning day !
In the same group are larger fans,
which also represent high value at their
prices; 10 inches, three degrees of speed,
both currents, $12.50; 12 inches, three
speeds, alternating current only, $23.25,
and with oscillating movement, $29.
But, geed as this fan suggestion is,

Many women have the old-fashioned
idea that all that a fireless coekstove
can de is te boil and stew.
That's net true of the modern "fire

many exclusive features, including the
"waterseal" top that prevents any less
of heat while cooking.

petizingly tender; pies, cake, biscuits
and bread light and crisp; vegetables
with every natural flavor retained.
Even the single-compartment size
will cook four different things at the
same time your meat and three vege
tables when desired.
A single-compartment Demestic
Science cooker is only $25; two-compartment
size, $36 -and $40; three-compartment,
$56. All complete with equipment,
