A Kitchen Convenience.
A seat, somewhat high, is a veritable necessity in a kitchen. If it can roll in under the kitchen table when not in use,
BO much the better. Country Gentleman describes and illustrates a handy seat that can be made in the home workshop. The top can be raised, disclosing a receptacle for kitchen cloths, stove holders, iron lifters, etc. A draw below will also be found convenient. With this the housewife can be seated when engaged in many operations at the kitchen table, where with an ordinary low kitchen chair she would feel that she must stand in order to work comfortably. With a high seat one does not have to keep the arms constantly and tiresomely raised when paring apples or vegetables, mixing cake or puddings and performing numberless other duties. The occasional bit of resting on such a seat, while working, will well repay the effort required in making it.
