Dedication

" If I can put one touch of a rosy sunset into the life of any man or woman I shall feel I have worked with God."

— George MacDonald.

This book is the direct result of eleven years' lecturing on Home Economics, with requests from hundreds of women who have faithfully attended the lectures in Cleveland and other cities to put into book form my talks and demonstrations. The experience of teaching all grades from kindergarten through the academic departments in cooking has enabled me to interpret this study of foods and home making in terms which all women can understand and practice.
