_Extract from Mrs. Partington's Introduction._
"Well, well," said Mrs. Partington, her spectacles beaming with delight as
she turned over the leaves of the new cookery book, "I declare it excites
my salivation glands even to read the names of these good things. It seems
as though the greatest epicac might find something among all these meats
and cosmetics to give a jest to appetite.... Now a book like this will come
into a house like an oasis in the desert of the great Sahara, and be a
quarantine of perpetual peace."
"Has the best characteristic of simplicity, variety, and
usefulness."--_Boston Journal._
"A thoroughly intelligible and practical guide for young
housekeepers."--_Boston Advertiser._
"The most sensible cook-book of the season."--_Journal of
Education._
"Numerous household hints in the book, which of themselves
make it valuable."--_Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph._
"The work will certainly commend itself to the
housekeeper."--_American Hebrew._
"To all in the culinary work this is a model guide."--_Ohio
State Journal._
"A formidable rival of the numerous works of its
kind."--_Christian Index._
