GOD sends meat ana the Devil sends cooks"
Rays proverhs

when he gets up from a badly prepared
breakfast; when the oatmeal is scorched,
potatoes half done, the eggs boiled like
rocks. and the coffee bitter and brackish.
The meal has been swallowed in haste
the cook mathematical; he goes moodily
to business, not recovering his wonted
cheeriness for day or two, during which
time wife, children, pet dogs and cats,
manservant maidservant, business asso-
ciates and all who meet him are driven to
kindred desperation. The coming of a
mother-in-law to spend the winter would
be a relief and blessing
Because Of a badly cooked breakfast!
How could he have avoided that bad
ly cooked breakfast with its train of con-
sequent evils?
By having good cook.
How are good cooks made?
Like skilled workmen in any other
capacity.
How is that?
By practical experience, supplemented
by the study Of standard cook books. A
good cook is as impossible without the
study of the art Of cooking as a good doc
tor is without the study of medicine, or
a good lawyer without the study OF law.
Cooks, male or female, wife or servant,
who cook only by the light of their own
experience are dismal failures, and the
consequences Of one bad meal may
change the map of the earth!
Now, THEM the way to avoid all
these possible evils is to get your wife
cook book, and Of course she wants the
best, which, in strict confidence, is the
Home Queen Worlds Fair Souvenir
Cook Book.
How, THEN, can this prize be secured,

be mine in future? By a special arrange
