Why should we let them 80 to the other
sex?
OF course there will be sentimental
objections on the part Of those who
can afford to keep a chef. It is quite
the proper thing for a millionaire 80
have chef and so on, yet we have
overcome objections just as great in
other directions.
AS rule, chefs are foreigners-
French, Austrian German or Italian.
It is claimed that In this country we
cannot cook as they can abroad. It
may be admitted that there is truth
in this statement, but there is no rea-
son why we should not have q few ex-
perts to take the higher posts. Cook
ing can be studied and there are many
women who are excellent CULINARY
artistes." It is not every foreign cook
who can do well as chef at a large
hotel There are many women here
who can hold their own with some of
the best of the profession abroad. Then
let our women cooks see II they can
not win back the posts which now fail
to men, and foreigners too.
AS to the question of ATTRACTING the
public matter which hotel MANAGERS
and others viii regard as of the high
est importance-we venture To think
that the announcement of the appoint
ment Of lady chef. IL we may use
the term, VIII command attention and
attract custom to an extent that win
be gratifying.

WOMEN cHEFs-wHY MOTIF

A lady writes: At a time when wo-
men are eagerly seeking fresh fields
wherein they may earn a livelihood,
when they are invading those callings
which men Brightly or wrongly re-
gard as exclusively their own. it is
curious to note that women have been
ousted from positions which fall more
within their domain than almost any
others, those which are now occupied
by chefs or male cooks.
Cookery, as we are informed till we
grow tired Of hearing it. is an essen
tial part of woman's work. The ne
cessity of being able to cook well is
always forced upon our sex, and the
men are not worried about tin fact,
they worry US about it. Yet the head
cooks in all grand places are meni Why
is this2 How is it that we stand calmly
by and do nothing to regain that which
we have lost2
Is there any insuperable obstacle to a
woman holding such a position? See
ing that there are feminine cooks in
houses Of all sizes. it would seem as if
there should be absolutely no difficulty
for woman to hold the Office of chef
to big hotel or mansion These Pc
sitions are the cream Of the vocation

THREE KINDS OF BENEFAcTioNs

THREE KINDS OF BENEFACTioNS.
Some people when they have done

cal and exacting, but still they keep be

aided certain persons and, though they

Ancient Egypt

Since the earliest annals of Old
Egypt, wheat has been recognized
as the king of foods.
It has held its sway down to the
present day, Notwithstanding the
fact that in many forms of making
wheat into food products, some OF
the best elements are lost.
Bread has been aptly termed,
"the staff of life, as it alone OF
known foods has all the elements
that are needed to sustain life.
