The reasons for the publication of this Volume-the First of a Series of Practical Manuals which were to be called the "All About It" Books-were thus explained in a Prospectus issued a few months ago, and approved by the late Mrs. S. O. Beeton:- Many wishes have been expressed to the Authoress of the "Book of Household Management" that a volume of Recipes in Cookery should be written which could be sold at a price somewhere between the seven-and-sixpenny "Household Management" and the Shilling Cookery Book.

The reasons for the publication of this Volume-the First of a Series of Practical Manuals which were to be called the "All About It" Books-were thus explained in a Prospectus issued a few months ago, and approved by the late Mrs. S.

No pains have been thought too great to make little things clearly understood. Trifles constitute perfection.
