The woman who can bring smiles of satâ€" isfaction to the face of her husband and family as they see what she is offering them for dinner, who can watch stronger and sturdier and bounei with health, and who, finally, ;: keep her food costs within he alâ€" lotted budget, that woman, I say, is a woman to admire and respect.

But reason his dishes are such miracles of success is that although he is behind the scenes in a la restaurant, he brings to the u.'K vidual order the same personal care as if he were in a small home kitchâ€" en with only three or four persons to cook for. $ es That is the secret of successful eookingâ€"individual care, not mass prod n.
