This anecdote leads to athought for the kitchen. The maid, as a usual thing, hasno access to the family library, and the few dilapidatedcook-books are stored away in a corner of the pantry shelveswith the pans and bowls and spices. Why should not thekitchen literature have the dignity of literature ? It will behandy to place it on a hanging shelf, on the top of which canstand the clock; then the covers of the volumes will be heldin place, and the titles will be at a readable angle. A scrap-book for clippings from the domestic departments of mag-azines and papers, and a book on hygiene, may occupy aplace along with the ordinary cook-books. The volumes most frequently stolen from the Spring-field city library are cook-books, says the librarian. Idont know whether it speaks well for the town or not,he says. It shows that the women have an ambition tolearn to be good cooks, and that our cook-books are morefascinating than fiction.—Scrap-hook. ^^^/Sri ofdyimn
