Excerpt from Household Discoveries: An Encyclopaedia of Practical Recipes and Processes The mam Object of this book is economy. If rightly used, it will save a great deal of money in every household. It Will also save time and labor, Which are the equivalent Of money. The publishers have long felt that there is a great need for a new book of this sort upon the market. TO be sure, there are a number Of standard dictionaries and encyclopedias Of applied science. But these cost from five to ten dollars and upward. And they contain a great deal Of information about commercial processes not suitable to household use. There are also a num ber Of popular books of recipes published. But most of these are Old books. Others are made up scrapbook fashion by the republication Of Old material Without proper editorial supervision. In the course Of the preparation Of this volume, our atten tion was necessarily called to the fact that a number Of so-called new books republish, word for word, recipes and processes that have been formerly published in six or eight other books, some of which appeared before the Civil War. Recent science has introduced many new substances and processes then unknown. All these have been availed of in the present volume. Moreover, the Old-fashioned popular book of recipes leaves something to be desired in its manner as well as its matter. The enormous sale and reputation of a number of Old books that contain some recipes of great practical value, but accompanied by commend: which no sane person can possibly read Without a sense Of humor or a feeling of disgust, is the strongest possible evi dence Of the value Of this kind of information. We believe that what has made these Old books popular is their practical part and not their Silly part. We believe that the public will approve a volume that sets forth What to do, how to do, and the reasons Why, in Simple, direct, and dignified language, and saves space for additional recipes and other information by omitting horse play and all unnecessary remarks and commentaries.
