On behalf of the Bazaar Committee we also desire to express our gratitude to the advertisers and others who have aided in the publication of this work by contributing funds. It is not claimed that this work exhausts the subject of cookery, but we have aimed to touch the most important lines by including practical and tested recipes in all the various branches of the cullinary art. We have aimed to admit nothing to these pages that is not both practical and excellent. The ladies whose names are attached to recipes do not claim to have originated them, but have gathered them from many sources. The ladies have tested them and can vouch for them. This applies both to the signed and unsigned recipes. Feeling that we can safely commend this volume to your taste and judgment, we are * Sincerely yours, Mrs. Geo. A. Ogle, Chairman, Mrs. S. C. Haughey, Mrs. H. N. Mudge, Mrs. E. A. Stearns, Wesley Hospital Cook Book Committee. Mrs. B. F. Head, Chairman Wesley Hospital Bazaar Committee. ^ CONTENTS ** 1' fx H f> fx * V *> -^^j^^-, ff\r»\ /|\ /fv ff\/f\/f\ /|\(f\ — ••I||(^)HMM>— — Page THE STAFF OF LIFE. 5 Bread 5 Biscuit ..... 19 Brown Bread 7 Buckwheat Cakes 22 Buns IS Corn Bread 10 Corn Gems _ 13 Currant Bread 12 French Rolls ..." 17 Fritters 21 Gems 13 Graham Bread •.. ... . . 12 Graham Gems - 13 Muffins 15 Oatmeal Gems 14 Pan Cakes 21 Pop Overs 14 Potato Rolls 17 Rice Gems 14 Rolls 17 Salt Rising Bread 6 Twist . , 6 Wafers .... 20 Waffles , 16 FIRST ON THE BILL 52 Bouillon . 32 Celery Soup 27 Chicken Broth 29 Codfish 39 Consomme - 31 Corn Soup. . 30 Corncob Soup 29 Cream Fish 40 Fish 35 Fish Croquettes 40 Julienne 31 Lobster Chowder 31 Mock Bisque Soup 30 VI CONTENTS.
