(_By Mr. Punch's Food Specialist_.)
Mr. Punch considers it to be his duty at the present time to show how
an abundance of excellent and nourishing food may be obtained from the
most unlikely materials. In doing this he is aware that he is merely
following the example set him by countless culinary experts, who have
communicated their ideas to the daily press; but Mr. Punch is not to
be deterred from doing a helpful action by any paltry jealousy as to
precedence. His readers, he knows, will be grateful to him for his
generosity.
