WHY MEN MAKE GOOD rHEEs
More Thorough in Little Details
Which Are Necessary to Make
Up a Perfect Dish.

Why are men chosen as chefs in al
of the chief hotels and restaurants?
It is not, as many contend, on account
of physical stamina. as the finest chefs
only direct and taste, and yer seldom
do any OF the actual work. 1t is not
because a man is more epicurcan than
woman, for this, though maintained by
woman, is not a fact. Woman is
quite as fastidious over her food as
the ordinary man, and bestows as
much thought yer her meals as he
does. 1t is simply, explains the Los
Angeles Herald, that mar is more
thorough III little details which are
necessary to make up a really per.
feet dish
Take tor an example an Indian curr,
containing so many little triGin- in
gradients, ali Of which are equally in
pOrtant TO make q perfect dish when
finished. The loss OF one would mean
the spelling Of the others, and he
complete ruin OF the flavor of he
curry. The man viii carefully meas
ure each ingredient and have the dish
in its perfection. None is too unim.
pOrtant for his consideration. A WON
an, on the other hand, viii manaec
with what she has got handy. This
is nice and obiiging of her, no doubt
but it eventually spells her cooking,
and the dish is not a success, Even
IN the case Of amateurs a man is
more successful than a woman for
these reasons, ana also because ne
takes more pride in his work Of pre-.
pairing a tempting repast.
A great many people think that n
one can cook who happens to possess
a cookery book and d few pots and
pans. What a tallacy. A great chef
is born, like any other great artist.
Of course. he must learn his art, as
they do theirs, but he has a natural
gift for his work Ven before he
starts it.
To the chef his work is a Joy for
ever" and he invents new dishes with
as much pride and care as a modiste
or a m~illiner creates some new gown
or bonnet, and he carefully studies the
trifling details Of each separate fla
vor before he sends his new master
piece OF culinary art before his pa.
irons.

In planning a house there is one
consideration hat often is lost sight
OF, and that is the choice of materials.
Too often the purpose is simply to
have a habitation that is convenient
and attractive. More important than
any other consideration is the fire
reslstive quality. 1t is now possible
TO have a fireprOof house at little ad-
d%ltiional cost over the price of a fire
trap. Brick fills the bill in a measure,
but there is nothing especially at
tractive about brick. A plain or
or reinforced concrete house is much
stronger in every way han a brick
