The illustration shows a style of a cupboard in which kitchen utensils can be kept in an orderly manner without taking up a great deal of space. The cupboard is tall and narrow, and the interior face of each side is scored at even intervals with saw cuts, ¹⁄₄ in. deep. In the grooves are placed shelves, which are merely squares of galvanized iron. By placing the shelf in the proper grooves the space is adapted to the size of the utensil. The small floor space occupied allows the cupboard to be placed in the part of the kitchen that is most convenient.

Reducing the Size of a Playing Card While Holding It in One Hand
A clever diminishing card trick may be played with a piece of paper made up as shown in the illustration. Show the audience the whole card, Fig. 1, then fold it halfway and show again, Fig. 2, then again, Fig. 3. If this is done quickly it will not be noticed. A piece of paper is used the size of a regular playing card, and an ace is made on one side. When it is folded over one side of the reduced size is made to show the same ace, then another fold is made and the smaller ace is made.—Contributed by Louis Waherer, Tiffin, Ohio.
