t'The Just-For-Two Cookery Book.’^By Jennie C. Williamfi. London: Header and Stoughton. Wellington: Whitcorabe and Tombs, Ltd. The special feature of this, the very' [latest cookery book, is that every one iof the recipes which it contains “has Ibeen. carefully estimated and tested—(the ingredients reduced so as to supply Ithe requirements of , two.” As the mifthor says, the young housewife is, often iapt to remark, when, speaking of the 'legion of cookery books already in. the market, . that the recipes they contain “are all prepared for'tamilies," and the necessity for proportionately reducing the quantities as often responsible for ’mistakes which mar the successful achievement of many a dainty dish. A lady critic to whom Miss Williams’s boot has been referred, has handed me in a verdict of "excellent.” A welcome innovation, is the provision of several blank pages at the end of each section upon which written additions can. be made, ior cuttings pasted. By a. young [housekeeper the "Ju.st-i'or-Two" Cookery Book” should be greatly appreciated.
