GAS COOKING SI OVES are growing in greater favour than ever, not only on account of their convenience and cleanliness, but because the public is alive to the fact that cooking by gas is cheaper than with coal, in addition to ensuring a greater simplicity in working, requiring less attention, and providing an unvarying heat. The great advantages of cooking by gas are still less understood and appreciated than they deserve to be. hood, especially meat, is often prepared in such a defective manner, that the only wonder is that dyspepsia is not much more common. Meat comes to the table which has been cooked in a closed oven with perhaps little or no ventilation, having a kind of grey-brown colour, with a half-burnt taste.
