<P>y Mrs. Sarah Tyson Rorer
Philadelphia Cooking Expert
14 T PREFER oil stoves to any other
I kind. I speak from the fullness
of 30 years’ experience with
them. Oil is clean, economical,
and dependable. It saves a
world of work. No coal or wood to carry
in, no ashes to carry out. And no dust.
“I have just completed a special experiment
on the 1926 model Perfection Oil Stove, test
ing it under all possible cooking conditions.
1 cooked many meals in my own kitchen.
Every dish was deliciously cooked.
Immediate Cooking
“Steak began to broil and my molasses cake
began to rise almost as soon as I lighted the
burners. There was no waiting for the heat
to ‘come up.’
“The bottom of every utensil used in the
experiment was as clean as a
china dish. No scouring was
necessary. Those long Perfec
tion chimneys certainly are in
surance against sooty kettles.
All at the Same Time
“I cooked many things at once.
For boiling beef I used a very
low flame. I French-fried po
tatoes over a hot flame with
yellow tips about 1% inches
high above the blue area. I
cooked white sauce over a
medium flame.
“I used all grades of heat at
the same time satisfactorily.
All flames remained steady
and even. They d:d not creep
or‘craw l.’This is a real blessing
to the cook. She can forget her stove and
keep her mind on her cooking
• ‘ Very Well Satisfied’'
“Altogether I was very well satisfied with
the Perfection Stove. And, my good opinion
of oil stoves has increased, if that is possible. ”

siastic about the 1926 Perfection, too. And

Clean. Even
Cooking Heat
The long chimneys of the Per
fection burn every drop of the oil
before it reaches the kettle. Thus
you get clean, even cooking heat
tree from soot and smoke.
You can be doubly sure of this
sort of heat when you use a pure
water-white Kerosene that burns
cleanly, evenly and without odor
— “Standard" Kerosene. It is
• pecialiy refined.
All impurities that might cause
smoke or leave deposits of soot
ire removed. This assures the
maximum amount of heat. By
sticking to "Standard” Kerosene
you are sure of best results from,
your Perfection. Insist on it.
You can buy it anywhere.

ought to.

Easy Bran Muffing
Mrs. Rorer, the Philadelphia cook
ing expert, recommends her bran
muffins for breakfast. "They are
very nutritious and healthful." she
says. "One might paraphrase the
old saying into 'a bran muffin a day
keeps the doctor away.’ It would
hold just as true.
“These muffins are easily made,”
she affirms. “Beat one egg, add a
cup of milk, a half teaspoon salt,
one tablespoonful sufear, and one
tablespoonful melted butter. Sift
one cupful four with three level tea
spoons baking powder, and bake in
a hot oven, in greased gem pans for
SO minutes."

Nuts for Nourishment
Mrs. Roror has a very appetizing?
and nourishing nut bread, too.
Here’s how to make it:
Chop enough pecans to make a
half cupful. Put two cupfuls flour
In a bowl, add four level teaspoons
of baking powder, half a teaspoon
salt, and two tablespoonfuls of
eugar, and sift. Mix in the nuts.
Beat one egg, add one cupful of
milk, mix and add the flour. Beat
well, and turn at once into a greased
bread pan.
Let stand 10 minutes. Light oven
3 minutes before bread is light.
Bake half an hour at medium heat.
Raisins may be substituted for nuts.
Nut bread makes very good sand
wiches if spread with butter. Cream
cheese may also be used for a simple,
delicious filling.
