Congress Lake, Ohio. 
Are You Satisfied 
With Your Kitchen Range? 
Does the fire start quickly and burn evenly? Is the 
heat distributed equally on all sides of the oven, insuring 
uniformly cooked and appetizing looking food? Is your 
range easy to clean and does it give you satisfactory re¬ 
sults at a low fuel cost? 
does not look like the ordinary kitchen range. It gives distinction 
to your kitchen. It has no needless fancy work that takes valuable 
time to clean. Refuse cannot gather under the range for the angle 
base rests squarely on the hearth and stray drafts cannot cool the 
ovens. A Deane Range requires a surprisingly small amount of 
fuel. This saving alone soon helps to pay for it. 
Deane Ranges are designed specially to meet your personal 
requirements. The number of persons to be served, the fuels most 
easily obtainable and the space available all are considered. The 
ranges are sturdily built of Armco rust-resisting iron in a manner 
to insure the longest possible, useful career. If they cost more 
they are easily worth the difference. 
These features are to be found in all Deane Ranges whether they 
are heated by coal, wood, electricity, gas, natural gas, gasolene gas, 
or any combination of these fuels. 
Stop to consider how much more home comfort you would enjoy 
if you had the right kitchen range. Outline your requirements and 
we will gladly make recommendations and will send you our book¬

Furnishing Your Kitchen

and shelves and closets. It signifies the 
demand of the modern housewife for a 
shipshape tool chest with all the ma¬ 
terials ready to her hand, so that there 
may be no reaching, stretching, or re¬ 
lay races around the kitchen in the 
preparation of the recurring daily meals. 
For the most part these cabinets are 
movable. That is, they are not built 
into the walls of the room. At present, 
however, architects are planning for 
them as stationary and essential parts 
of the kitchen equipment. 
Materials 
Steel and wood are the materials out 
of which the cabinet is made. The 
steel ones are better in many ways than 
the wooden types because they are 
easier to clean and are more protected 
against vermin. However, the wooden 
cabinets which are built with rounded 
corners are a close second to the steel 
cabinet, since these corners cannot be¬ 
come a receptacle for food waste and 
are practically vermin proof. Wooden 
cabinets are finished in a hard enamel 
paint and can be washed with impunity. 
Some kitchen cabinets are equipped 
with a rolling door which folds up¬ 
wards ; others have swinging doors. The 
swinging door, although it extends into 
the room a few inches, has the con¬ 
venience of being able to hold extra 
little racks for extra little things, such 
as small bottles, market lists, and the 
like. 
Never fill your cabinet too full of 
things, as they are prone to fall down 
and jangle the nerves of the worker, 
thus really defeating the purpose for 
which the cabinet is built, which is 
maximum convenience. 
In the illustration you can see the 
arrangement of one kitchen cabinet, 
which will give you a general idea of 
their general scope. 
Besides the table top, which is used 
as a moulding board, there are places 
for the flour bin, sugar container, bread, 
cake, pots, pans, rolling pin, cutlery, 
jars, dishes, marketing slips, and even 
the favorite cook book. 
The kitchen cabinet is a boon to the 
small housekeeper and is becoming so 
appreciated for its concentration of work 
and saving of steps that even the owners 
of large homes insist on installing it. 
That is why architects are including 
the kitchen cabinet in their plans. It 
means a saving of 75% of toil and 
thus becomes a factor in making ser¬ 
vants willing to stay with you. Where 
there are no servants employed Mrs. 
Wife gets the benefit! 
There are many smaller cabinets on 
the market. The sink closet, which 
contains all the sink soap, swabs and 
brushes, a real convenience indeed, as 
is the long and narrow broom closet, 
for brooms and cleaning materials. Un¬ 
til the housewife has her brooms prop¬ 
erly garaged her nerves never will be 
entirely rested. 
Dealers and manufactures are ready, 
in fact, to make any sort of cabinet for 
you if they are not in stock. Don’t be 
bashful, get what you need for your 
kitchen—but never get more than you 
can use. 
Small neat white cabinets are made, 
to fit corners as well as flat spaces, and 
give the kitchen the efficient, clean 
look of the laboratory. 
Shelving Units 
Steel shelving and built-in kitchen 
cabinets are growing more and more 
popular. Stationary shelves, built once 
and for all, can be installed, or you 
can begin with a few units and as you 
require more they can be bolted on to 
what you have, just like sectional book 
cases. 
These shelves are covered with three
