That holds true for every purchase, in cluding ^Jhome items. One example set. Although began as a fad borrowed from abroad,, consumer interest indicates that it's here to stay. Pat Sullivan, McHenry^ county * Extension adviser, Home Economics, says two kinds of fondue pots are available-open-flame, and electric models. If you have a fondue pot already or will be purchasing one, be aware of these characteristics. The open-flame model sports a low price, usually less than ten dollars. However, it may be more dangerous than its electrical counterpart. The safety factor is closely related to its design and the type of fuel used. Too often the pot sits loosely in a metal ring held aloft by spindly legs which are unat tached to the base tray. One careless jostle of the handle, the pot tumbles, spilling sauce and fuel, and causing very painful burns and fires. The jellied alcohol fuel source is much safer because it can't spill, and it is safer to store. The open-flame model also allows very little control over the temperature of the liquid in the pot. Ms. Sullivan explains that the electric fondue pot consists of a container which sits on a controlled-heat base. In one model, the base and fondue pot are designed to be used only together for fondues. In others, the base and pot can be-used separately for other purposes. One of the biggest ad vantages of the electric fondue pot is its control of heat. The ^ temperature ranges from warm to 425 degrees F. On some models, a signal light glows during preheating and goes out when the desired temperature has been reached. The electrical model may have safety problems, too, unless you are careful in its use. It may have a more stable base than the non-electric fondue pot, but watch the electric cord! If someone trips over the cord, the pot may tip, spilling hot liquid. Place the fondue pot on a table against 1972 BY INTERNATIONAL PLAYTEX CORPORATION MELODY JOAN RUTH ENGAGED - Mr. and Mrs. Aubert C. Ruth of 1121 W.

Ms. Sullivan points out that a model hiying two small dies rati handle manage. Most fondue pots have a capacity of one and one-half to two quarts. They are usually made of heavy Teflon-lined aluminum, with ceramic ex terior finishes in decorator's colors. A metal pot is needed to withstand the high heat required for meat fondues. Some cheese fondue experts believe that only a wide ear thenware or shallow ceramic dish is suitable for cheese fondues to avoid burning. As a result, one manufacturer offers both a metal and stoneware pot. That brand of fondue pot can also be switched from electric to alcqhol-flame heating. \ When selecting a fondue pot, consider the safety factor in volved in the model you select. If you fondue frequently - especially with the deep-fry technique -- you Should really play it safe with an electric model that has a sturdy base and two small handles. However, if you decide upon an open-flame fondue pot, make sure that its stance is solid and that it's fueled with jellied alcohol.

I am a Baptist and have four children who are all married. I live by myself but I had a minor operation and after that I had a fall and broke my thigh. Although I walk with a cane I am able to do my own housework but I can't drive. I have a good place and I have a good in come but I need someone who could drive me places and be a companion for me. I am not looking for them to do any kind of work as I am not helpless. B.--N.C. * Answer: There are so many lonely widows in the world who need just what you are look ing for--companionship and a little help to get around to places. / I wis\) I could help you but there*are so many un scrupulous people in the world, who take advantage of widows, that we are not allowed to give names of our writers to anyone. However there axe probably people in your own community or near by whom you can investigate as to their dependence and honesty. Louisa. Address letters: Louisa, Box 532.
