Preface To First Edition

"Still another!" cries a long-suffering public. True, but take courage! For, this time it is not a "complete manual" to supply "a want long felt." It is only a book of the favorite cooking recipes of those ladies of our Society who have long been recognized as authorities among us in all matters connected with housekeeping. The recipes are, all of them, among the things Tried and Proven. We have published them for the twofold purpose of binding them together into convenient form for reference and adding to the funds of our Society.

Thus we claim no place among the grand compendium of Housewifery; we have been humble gleaners in the field of culinary art. and we now lay our gathered sheaf at your feet, hoping you may deem it worthy of a place among your Household treasures.

Preface To Second Edition

The very flattering success of the first issue of "Still. Another" induced the ladies to issue the present revised and improved edition. Much care has been taken to eliminate all errors; many valuable and rare recipes have been added; and the general appearance of the book improved.

We trust our second edition will meet with as cordial a reception at the hands of a generous and considerate public as did our first.
