are countless uses to which it can be put- ,

heating water for shaving or warming the
baby's milk in the stilly night watches. In
the laboratory, doctor’s or dentist's offices
too, it is just as handy.

I know of a home in which the device has
proved a veritable boon. A member of the

much sleeping, of Waking up of a morning
long before the rest of the household were
astir. The prospect of an enforced fast for
an hour or more each morning was depress-
ing, to say the least, until she hit upon the
happy idea of “doing for herself.” It was
not long before an immersion heater joined

which never left her side.

From her bed, then, she would prepare
her breakfast—-nothing lavish, certainly,
but sufficient for the needs of a sick-a-bed
person. By placing the heater in a bowl
of water she could make herself a cup of
tea, and with the remaining water boil
herself an egg in a very few minutes. A
cup of tea, a boiled egg, bread and butter to
hand, and the day's first lonely hours were
wonderfully lightened.

It was all tremendously simple, and this
system into the bargain, did away with a
vast quantity of unnecessary dishes.

EFFICIENCY, comfort and beauty are
synonymous nowadays, or at least,
we strive to make them so. And following
the trend of progress, the dowdy, common
or garden, nickel-plated iron is donning gala
attire.

Frequent overheating wreaks sad havoc
upon the ‘newly-shining surface of many

‘ irons, and tarnish soon imparts a very drab

appearance. The porcelain top found on
the new Majestic Por-cel-iron, combines a
high order of beauty and utility. It has
been perfected to withstand the constant
overheating to which irons are necessarily
subjected, with the result that its original
lustrous finish will last until the iron itself
dies from sheer decrepitude.

The Por-cel—iron top is furnished in three
colors, royal blue, green and brown. The
handle is supplied in ebonized finish in the
same color as the top—all of which adds to
the attractiveness of the iron, and allow!

color scheme of a kitchen, or selection to
suit the individual taste.

Art and practicability converge when the
scientific distribution of heat is taken into
consideration. Because the porcelain 3.09
remains cooler than nickel, additional heat
passes through the sole plate, where it it
required. .
