For many years the standard work
in Germany on things culinary has
been Henriette Daridis' Practical Cook
Book, and now, from the thirty-ffth
German edition of this popular work
has been made an English translation,
which is published by Messrs. Caspar
& Zahn, Of Milwaukee, for the bene-
fit of that large number of Americans
and German-AmeTicans who enjoy Ger
man cookery. San appendix Of re
ceipts for dishes prepared in styles pc
culiar to cookery as done in this coun-
try is added. There are certainly
some very toothsome recipes for dain-
ties in the line Of German cookies. and
coffee cakes, and the chapters on, the
cooking of meat recommend them
selves to one of nearly any nationality.
The work, as whole, seems to be
practical and economical-good things
in cook book. It can be had, bound
in either cloth or oil cloth.
