PREFACE.

Although in putting forth this little book we do not claim that we are
filling a "Long felt want," yet we do feel that its many tried and
true recipes from our own housekeepers will be very welcome.  We also
believe that it will not only be welcomed by those who recognize the
names and merits of the various contributors, but by all housekeepers,
young and old.  There can never be too many helps for those who, three
times a day, must meet and answer the imperative question, "What shall
we eat?"

To the many who have helped so willingly in the compilation of this
book, the Editorial Committee would extend a grateful acknowledgment.

For the literary part of the work, we would beg your indulgence, since
for each of us it is the first venture in the making of a book.
