[Illustration: Wagner Cast Aluminum utensils are cast, not stamped.
Being in one solid piece there are no rivets to loosen, no seams to
break, no welded parts. Wagner Cast Aluminum Ware wears longer and cooks
better. The thickness of the metal is the reason--heat is retained and
evenly distributed--food does not scorch or burn as is liable in stamped
sheet utensils.
Wagner Ware combines durability and superior cooking quality with the
most beautiful designs and finish. At best dealer's.

="Household Helpers"=
If you could engage an expert cook and an expert housekeeper for only 10
cents a week, with no board or room, you would do it, wouldn't you? Of
course you would! Well, that is all our "TWO HOUSEHOLD HELPERS" will
cost you the first year--nothing thereafter, for the rest of your life.
Have you ever considered how much an hour a day, 7 days a week, 365 days
a year is worth to you? Many workmen get $1 an hour--surely your time is
worth 30 cents an hour. We guarantee these "Helpers" to save you _at
least_ an hour a day, worth say $2.10 a week. Will you invest the 10
cents a week to gain $2 weekly? _Send the coupon._
And the value our "Helpers" give you in courage and inspiration, in
peace of mind, in the satisfaction of progress, in health, happiness and
the joy of living,--_is above price_. In mere dollars and cents, they
will save their cost twelve times a year or more. _Send the coupon._
These helpers, "Lessons in Cooking" and "Household Engineering," were
both prepared as home-study courses, and as such have been tried out and
approved by thousands of our members. Thus they have the very highest
recommendation. Nevertheless we are willing to send them in book form,
on a week's free trial in your own home. _Send the coupon._
In these difficult days you really cannot afford to be without our
"Helpers." You owe it to yourself and family to give them a fair trial.
You cannot realize what great help they will give you till you try
them--and the trial costs you nothing! _Send no money--send the coupon._

Should be in every home. It treats in detail the three meals a day, in
their several varieties, from the light family affair to the formal and
company function. Appropriate menus are given for each occasion. The
well-balanced diet is kept constantly in view. Table china, glass and
silver, and table linen, all are described and illustrated. In short,
how to plan, how to serve and how to behave at these meals, is the
author's motive in writing the book. This motive has been clearly and
admirably well carried out. Table etiquette might well be the subtitle
of the volume.

=JELL-O
In Whipped Form=
Of all forms of whipped Jell-O the Bavarian creams are most popular, and
they may well be, for in no other way can these favorite dishes be made
so easily and cheaply. Jell-O is whipped with an egg-beater just as
cream is, and does not require the addition of cream, eggs, sugar or any
of the expensive ingredients used in making old-style Bavarian creams.
Begin to whip the jelly when it is cool and still liquid--before it
begins to congeal--and whip till it is of the consistency of whipped
cream. Use a Ladd egg-beater and keep the Jell-O cold while whipping by
setting the dish in cracked ice, ice water or very cold water. A tin or
aluminum quart measure is an ideal utensil for the purpose. Its depth
prevents spattering, and tin and aluminum admit quickly the chill of the
ice or cold water.
PINEAPPLE BAVARIAN CREAM
Dissolve a package of Lemon Jell-O in half a pint of boiling water and
add half a pint of juice from a can of pineapple. When cold and still
liquid whip to consistency of whipped cream. Add a cup of the shredded
pineapple. Pour into mould and set in a cold place to harden. Turn from
mould and garnish with sliced pineapple, cherries or grapes.
