NEW WORKS AND NEW EDITIONS

ACTON (MISS).--MODERN COOKERY, In all its Branches, reduced to a System of Easy Practice. For the use of Private Families.

Foolscap 8vo. with Plates and Woodcuts, 7_s._ 6_d._ cloth.

"_The whole of Miss Acton's recipes 'with a few trifling exceptions, which are scrupulously specified, are confined to such as may be perfectly depended on, from having been proved beneath our own roof, and under our own personal inspection.' We add, moreover, that the recipes are all reasonable, and never in any instance extravagant. They do not bid us sacrifice ten pounds of excellent meat, that we may get a couple of quarts of gravy from it; nor do they deal with butter and eggs as if they cost nothing. Miss Acton's book is a good book in every way; there is right-mindedness in every page of it, as well as thorough knowledge and experience of the subjects she handles._"--Medical Gazette.
