VISIBLE COOKING.
OVENS WITH GLASS DOORS
Glass has gone on wonderfully during the last decade or so. says a writer to an English paper. While the designers have been busy the commodity has become less expensive, and we are now accustomed to employ glass in the home for many purposes which once we should not have dreamed of. We have unsplinterable and unbreakable and flexible and heat-resisting glass, and we use sheet glass on our walls and to cover our furniture.
A new triumph of the glass manufacturers is a gas oven which lias a transparent door made of what is called armour-plate glass. That is to say, it is as strong ns iron, but you can see through it. We all know wliat a nuisance it can he continually opening the door of an oven to see how the dinner is faring, besides which there is often a danger that the mere opening of the door, with the resultant mometary cooling, will come at the wrong moment for a rake or a souffle, with unfortunate results. The new visible cooking does away with this danger, as well ns saving many a burned finger and thumb.
Lend is an excellent lubricator. Try the tip of a lead pencil on a squeaking door hinge, and notice the _ result.
