Our Cook Book (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Our Cook Book This book is gotten out by the ladies aid society of the Fifth Street Baptist Church of Lowell. Our object has been the old one - to make some money. We have recarpeted our Church, and by this means have tried to help pay for it. We are gratified at our success. Our task has been arduous, for it has involved hard work, but it has been a pleasant one. We have made many acquaintances and have been treated with almost uniform courtesy. We thank our advertisers for their generous response to our call. We sincerely hope their invest ment will be profitable. We are sure it will, if they let their wives have a copy of this book, for men, we are told, do like a good dinner. For ourselves, we know better than ever whom to patronize, and to whom to refer our husbands and friends. We also thank the friends who buy the book. May it enlarge their culinery vision! And so we launch our little book upon the sea, hoping its esculent suggestions may find safe harbor in many a larder, and gather smiles and benedictions around many a well filled board.
