It compares the body and its different organs with a house and its different parts. For example:— A telephone system illustrates the nerves
The kitchen 〃 the stomach
A pumping-engine 〃 the heart
A bath-room shows the work of the lungs
A music-room illustrates the voice
A gentle nurse 〃 sleep
The house-breaker or burglar 〃 tobacco
The murderer 〃 alcohol It is all told in a story by Mother to her three children, and while it does not so much as mention physiology by name, it teaches it clearly and accurately. Fully illustrated, 218 pages, attractively bound in durable cloth. The enormous increase throughout the country of a sentiment in favor of healthful habits of life, has resulted in a demand for a cook-book whose recipes are healthful as well as tasteful. In “A Friend in the Kitchen,” the art of cookery is treated from a standpoint of health. A scientific knowledge has been used in the selection of food materials and directions for their preparation, producing a bill of fare which will tell for health and strength as well as satisfy the palate of an epicure. The book contains over four hundred carefully tested recipes for the preparation of healthful dishes. There are also tables giving the nutritive value of foods, time required to digest various foods, proper food combinations, rules for dyspeptics, practical weights and measures for the kitchen, infant foods, etc. There are 130 pages, nicely illustrated and carefully indexed.
