Excerpt from Recipes by Ladies of St. Paul's P. E. Church, Akron, Ohio We may live without poetry, music, or art; We may live without conscience, live without heart; We may live without friends; may live without books ; But civilized men cannot live without cooks. and, though it is asserted that, like poets, cooks are born, not made, good cooking is largely the result of practical experience. It is the truest economy to concoct the given materials into dishes so palatable and so daintily served that waste shall be reduced to a minimum. Since, "in the multitude of councilors there is wisdom," may we be pardoned if we add another to the number of cook books already flooding the land, as all the formulae given in this compilation are obtained from ladies whose dainties are acknowledged to be most toothsome, and who, by this method, furnish the recipes for which they have often been importuned. The editors were troubled with un embarras des riches, and, perhaps the selections are not the most felictitous, but "to err is human." We tender our sincere thanks to the ladies of our town, and especially to those of other congregations who have responded to our requests generously.
