The Model Kitchen
The pride of every good housewife
should be her kitchen; but strange
as this may seem, this important
part of ihe home is often neglected,
not only from the standpoint of con
venience and appearance, but as re
gards hygiene and sanitation as well.
Since here it is that all the food is
prepared with which to nourish our
bodies, on which so much depends,
it would seem that sanitation should
be of paramount importance.
To insure absolute purity, all in
gredients to be used in the prepara
tion of a meal should be kept in re
ceptacles that are germ, fly, bug and
dust-proof, and for all those needing
just such articles, S. H. Thornton
has just what you are looking for.
Why not have your kitchen neat
and harmonious in furnishing as
well as the rest of the house?
Go down and see this most practi
cal and attractive kitchen cabinet,
and be sure and examine those beau
tiful and durable brass-bound ce
dar chests that stand in the show
window.—(Adv.)
