Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Century Cook Book: With a New Supplement of One Hundred Receipts of Especial Excellence Although definite honors are not conferred on cooks else where, good cooking is everywhere appreciated, and there is no reason why it should not be the rule instead of the exception. In large establishments it may be said to prevail, but in many moderate households the daily fare is of a quality which satis fies no other sense than that of hunger, the hygienic require ments and esthetic possibilities being quite unknown or dis regarded. This is what Savarin designates as feeding, in contradistinction to dining. The author believes that the women of to-day, because of their higher education, have a better understanding of domes tic duties; that hygiene, economy, system, and method are better understood and more generally practised. Children are not only more sensibly clothed, but they are more wholesomely fed, and households are directed with more intelligent care.
