The
Reason
/
t
In the ordinary heater the draft enters the front, passes
up through the fire and out the flue at the top. In
this way only about 60 per cent of the burnable proper-
ties of your fuel are consumed, the rest passes up the
flue unburned in the form of gases and smoke. In the
WILSON HEATER
the Hot Blast Down-Draft enters from the top,
circulates throughout and over the fire and produces
perfect combustion, which consumes all of the
burnable elements in your fuel ; thus the Wilson will
give you 40 per cent more heat with a given amount
of soft coal than any other heater, or in other words,
your fuel bill will be reduced 40 per cent.
Is this worth considering?

"What does cookery mean?"
It means the knowledge of all fruits and herbs and balms and spices —
it means carefulness, and inventiveness, and watchfulness, and willing-
ness, and readiness of appliance. It means the economy of your great
grandmothers and the science of modern chemists — it means much tast-
ing and no wasting. — Buskin.

SOUPS.
"Soup rejoices the stomach and disposes it to receive other
food."— Sel.
Consomme. — Into a frying pan put two tablespoons butter and
add four spoons minced onion, two tablespoons each of minced
carrot and minced celery; cook slowly twenty minutes, draw
over to a hotter part of the stove, and stir till a light brown.
Add to this two and one-half quarts hot water in which a fowl
has been boiled. Tie in a netting bag half teaspoon of whole
black pepper, one bay leaf, one leaf of sage, one sprig of
parsley, two whole cloves, one small stick of cinnamon, tiny
bit of mace, and put it in the boiling soup. Boil slowly for
one hour, then add tablespoon of salt, strain through a cloth and
set away to cool. When cold skim off all fat and the soup
will be ready to be heated to the boiling iDoint and served as
a simple consomme, or it may have any kind of garnish added
to it.
White Soup. — Three pounds chicken, three quarts cold water,
or one quart to one pound; one tablespoon of salt, one table-
spoon chopped onion, two tablespoons chopped celery, or one
of seed; cut chicken into joints and put into three quarts
of cold water and boil for one-half hour; add seasoning
and simmer gently until the meat leaves the bone; strain,
and when cold remove the fat; this jelly that is left is
the stock. For this stock allow one heavy pint of milk; put
stock on to boil and milk to heat; melt one tablespoon butter,
add tablespoon flour and stir till smooth; pour on this slowly
the stock, then add the milk slowly, stirring till smooth, and
cook till slightly thickened; season with salt and pepper; into
