Philadelphia Cook book, by
Mrs. S. I. Rorer, principal of
the Philadelphia Cooking
school; 5SI pages, bound in en-
ameled cloth; SI.25, by mail,
$I.4O,
The city, whose people
wherever they go never tire OF
comparing whatever viands the
fortune of travel sets before
them with Philadelphia cookery
of course expects the world
outside to hail the Philadelphia
Cook Book, especially with
Mrs. Rorer's name on the title
page; for isn't the book the
school iii print? and isn't the
school the product and central
Exchange Of Philadelphia cook
cry? As for the city itself there
isn't a domestic book shelf in
it too full to make room for
Mrs. Rorer's book.
Not every cook in the city
has the good fortune to test
and perfect her art in the cook
ing school. The book is the
school. But, it seems, we owe
the publication in part to the
scholars themselves. Mrs.
Rorer says: AN urgent call
comes from my pupils to put in
to permanent form the numer-
GUS wcll-tried and valuable re-
cipes collected and revised dur
ing the six successful seasons
of the Philadelphia Cooking
school, Which appears to us
the most effectual commehda-
ton the book could possibly
have. As much as to say:
I'VE want the book because
we know what is in it,.
Therefore every housekeep-
er wants it, who doesn't know
what is in it.
Any book got.-By the way
do you Know our monthly,
Book News? 1t not only
keeps you informed about
books as they come from the
press, bit helps you to get
them wherever you are almost
the same as if you were in the
liberal bookstore you know of.
