 THE NEW DIET KITCHEN. An association has been formed here. among well known women for the establishment of diet kitchens throughout the poorer quarters of the city. These demonstrate to wives and mothers ho.- to market so that they can obtain the best value in foodstuffs. as well as how to prepare appetizing, nourishing dishes for their families.
