LONDON has school Of popular cookery, in
f,II opcration. In attendance daily may be
seen fashionable ladies, sweetly surprised at
discovering that grdiron is quite dltfent from
irving pan, side by side with stout middle
class housckecperS, whose shrcwd, anxious
ylapces belray their painful familiarity with
the ways of plain cooks Behind the counter
stands venerable chef de cuisine, clad in viii te
and assisted by four buxom kitchen maids, be.
comingy arrayed in brown Holland costumes
and coquettish mob caps. Nor is the sight
which meets the eye less attractive than the
odor appealing to the appetite. Each week
the programme is varied to suit the palates and
purses of the million. During one week mac
caroDi is prepared in different ways during the
morning lecture, while the pot-au-feu aud 9TH
er dishes form.the subject of the afternoons
Discourse. None of those who attend the lee
lures can any longer excuse their ignorance OF
cookery, for the various processes for serving
up savory dishes are so thoroughly explained
by the lecturer and SO practically demonstrated
ly the chief cook that the matter is put beyond
mistake. The difference between the pre-
paraton of French peasants dinner and that
of the British workingman is also explained.
In the former case long before the dinner hour
a couple Of ounces of meat, some crusts OF bread,
a few sayory herbs aud onions had been SIM
mcrug 10 little earhenware pipkln over a
handful Of charcoal. and the result Is nourlsh-
ing and palatable mess. On the other hand, the
wife of the English laborer thought herself III
luck if she could rush out and buy, perhaps,
double as much meat or bacon few minutes
before j. o'clock She would then hastily
place her purchase, supplemented by an onion
in greasy frying pan, and serve up to her
hungry husband black, burnt chunk of half
raw and wholly iDdigestible mcat.-BaH. Am
AMERICAN TREES AND SHRUBS. DIR. Hook
er having expressed his surprise at the neglect
with which American arboricuturistS treat the
mauy beautiful trees and shrubs of America,
the editor of the Gardeners Monthly writes in
explanation. that nurseryuen in this country
are mostly very Ignorant of their business. Mr.
Meehau asserts that there are not IN the whole
United States "a score of nursery firms which
could take in hand general assortment of
plants, as au European nursery would, and go
through with their successful propagation.
But another hindrance to the development Of
this branch of the nursery business here is the
high price Of skilled labor, such as would be
required for collecting aud managing stock of
this kind. Then the mode Of communication
between the nursery and the public is faulty.
lhe bulk Of the business is done by agents,
who 20 through the country, carrying with
them lew specimens, and these are trees IN
most demand, i. c., common kinds. Theagent
will not cumber himself with variety. il few
kind will sell just as readily. The public are
coutent to learn of the agent, at second hand,
what the nurseries contain, rather than go and
see for themselves
