from the cruel love pirate?
Ever see her win out finally after

A Queen of Importance.

Rosa Lewis. queen of cooking,
reached America the other day. One
columnist remarked that she, being
the queen of all queens. should he
given the keys of the city by the
mayor Of New York.
Mrs. Lewis thinks that the Amerf.
cans dress their dishes with too many
rich sauces; that drowning a veal chop
in brown gravy makes it taste like a
country sausage. Her opinion is
worth listening to from both a dietetic
and gourmetic standpoint.
From a gourmetic standpoint, she
knows what she is talking about. For
she has risen from rags to riches by
her art As a young girl she started
out as a helper i'm hotel kitchen To
day she owns a string of hotels in
England and is immensely wealthy.
Edward VII so loved her cooking
that when he was to be a dinner guest

please him had Rosa Lewis come to
the house and prepare the viands in
order to tickle his n1ajesty's palate.

fortune did the art Of cooking bring
