Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smiley's Manual of Practical Information and Standard Household Guide: A Book Adapted to the Every-Day Use of the People, Comprising a Treasury of Domestic Recipes, and Being a Reliable Guide for Conducting the Various Departments of Household Work Within the last few years much excellent work has been done by the scientists who have been investigating the chemistry of cooking and the chemical com position and nutritive value of the different foods. We have endeavored to clearly present to our readers the most important results of their labors, for we believe the time has come for housekeepers to understand both the composition of foods and their nutritive value, as well as the chemical changes produced in them by the various operations of cooking. For years we have been gathering material for this book, resulting in the accumulation of a great mass of recipes. These have been culled and tested, and in making selections our rule has been to choose those which were most sima ple and economical, because the book is primarily designed for the use of the masses, whose means are always limited, and we aim to meet their every day wants, although we present also an ample number of more elaborate recipes suitable for special occasions. Our endeavor has been to make the collection. As complete and comprehensive as possible, and to give new, choice and well-tested recipes in every department of household cookery.
