“This volume is dedicated to the busy American housewife, in the hope that its use will lighten her toil and prove to be a trusted helper in the numerous duties which she so nobly undertakes. We believe that the pages of this book… will be welcomed as a great boon by many thousands of women, whether they do the work themselves or merely supervise it. The many recipes here compiled cover every variety of food and are easy to follow in practical us ; the lists of ready-made menus for various kinds of meals will often be referred to, and this department will be found to contain valuable household recipes, and many general hints on serving and table-setting which distinguish this part of the work from the ordinary cook book.
