Mrs. Rorep w ill Deliver "a
Series Of Cooking
Lectures.

Wearing dainty lace cap and broad
folds of muslin pinned gracefully across
her bosom in true eighteenth century
fashion. Mrs. S. T. Rorer. as she APP
peared before the ladies' of her coo king
class yesterday afternoon, might hav
been taken readily for an ARTISTIC re-
production of Martha ashington. Nor
were her manners less charming. Ger
tainly she is, as she herself claims, the
best monument to the success of her
hygienic system of cookery. Over a
hundred ladies of the leading circles
were gathered in one end of the old
Mannheimer building. corner of Third
and Minnesota, and from their evident
qualification and frequent smiles of APP
prevail it was clear that they thoroughly
understood the different ways in which
eggs should be manipulated in order to
secure the best edible results. The re-
porter saw and admired the results. and
would have liked to eat them all.
Being, however. mere male, there
0were many parts of the lecture which
presented dark and insidious aspect.
"Beauregard" eggs. doubtless. are
productive of internal rebellion; but
.'shirred" eggs, whipped" eggs, ONE
let and omelet "souffle' appear to differ
only when they are ready to eat. How
ever, there was no difficulty in under
standing the fair lecturer when she
stated that woman who had merely to
cook for dozen people had her lot cast
in pleasant places; that cooking was,
properly speaking, delight, almost
relaxation; that one of the many svi.
dences of woman's superiority lies in
her being able to do in four hours work
that would occupy a man for full
day; and

of the muscles would make any girl
find more pleasure in beating eggs than
in playing tennis.
Among the audience were observed
Mesdames William Robertson, William

The large stOreroom which formerly
contained so many dainties appealing
to the external pleasures of wives aud
daughters is now filled with numerous
booths, whose contents appeal with
equal force to their internal gratitica-
ton. There are foods enough on eXhi-
bition to make even an alderman hum
gry. In fact. G. E. Robb was unable to
resist the bait. but when lie got inside
made dignified pretense of wishing to
hear the lecture. However, the frequent
references to sugar in various forms so
touched his senatorial sensibiities that
he quickly retired to the seclusion of the
