When summer came I got work milking cows for some neighbors, for which I got two dollars a month. In 1881 I came to Chicago and got a position at 77 Clark Street, where I remained for two years at a salary of ten dollars a week. The recipes given in the following pages represent the labor of years. If, when gathered around the festal board, in camp or by fireside, on train or ship, "trying out" the recipes, his friends will pause, retrospectively, and with kindly feelings think from whence some of the good things emanated, the author will feel amply compensated for the care, the thought, the labor he has expended in the preparation of the book; and to those friends, individually and collectively, it is therefore dedicated. If, however, you have potato soup, it would not be out of place to serve potatoes with your dinner. Place in a double boiler a cupful of milk or cream to each cupful of rice and add salt and pepper to taste.

The thing to remember is that the design essence isn't the little touches you add along the way, it's the warmth of wood, fire, leather, and wrought iron. The main goal of lighting design is to introduce varying degrees of light into a room, which are called layers. More importantly than anything though is the need to include a little bit of yourself in the design. These are the materials that will establish the cabin appeal more quickly than any of the little touches you can add along the way. There is a type of innocence about a cabin style home and the little touches such as that will leave a lasting impression. Yesterday's dinner perhaps consisted of roast turkey, beef or lamb, and there is some meat left over; then pick out one of my receipts calling for minced or creamed meats; baked or stuffed potatoes are always nice, or there may be cold potatoes left over that can be mashed, made into cakes and fried. Dinner-For a roast beef dinner serve vegetable soup as the first course, with a relish of vegetables in season and horseradish or chow-chow pickle, unless you serve salad.

When your breakfast gong is sounded put your biscuits, eggs, bread, etc., in the oven so that they may be ready to serve when the family have eaten their grapefruit and cereal. If the breakfast consists of grapefruit, cereals, etc., your cereal should be the next article prepared. One of the pleasures in life to the normal man is good eating, and if it be true that real happiness consists in making others happy, the author can at least feel a sense of gratification in the thought that his attempts to satisfy the cravings of the inner man have not been wholly unappreciated by the many that he has had the pleasure of serving-some of whom are now his stanchest friends. Two of my brothers were lost in the war, a fact that wrecked my mother's health somewhat and I thought I could be of better service to her and prolong her life by getting work. I remained in their service until 1897. During the time I was in their service some of the most prominent people in the world traveled in the car assigned to me, as I was selected to handle all special parties. If it becomes dry add a little milk from time to time.

It requires a little longer to cook than the ordinary rice, but must not be stirred. If quail or ducks are to be served for dinner, an old Indian dish, wild rice, is very desirable. By the time your house really begins to completely fall in on itself, however, you probably would have died of the damp collecting within your house -- or of old age. This book, the child of his brain, gas fireplace brands and experience, extending over a long period of time and varying environment, he frankly admits is not without its faults-is far from perfect; but he is satisfied that, notwithstanding its apparent shortcomings, it will serve in a humble way some useful purpose. For instance, if you have sliced tomatoes, do not serve tomato soup. Do not serve dishes at the same meal that conflict. Luncheon-This is the easiest meal of the three to prepare. I was given the name of my master, D. J. Estes, who owned my mother's family, consisting of seven boys and two girls, I being the youngest of the family. And, by the way, there is little danger of being supplied with too many clothes and wraps when motoring in Britain. In 1883 I entered the Pullman service, my first superintendent being J. P. Mehen.
