1917 The Reminder by Jacob A. Didier (5th edition)

PREFACE

The principal aim in preparing this book has been to give an accu rate collection of approved recipes for general purposes. The work is essentially what it claims to be— Reminder. All historical details have been omitted, and popular and simple descriptions have, wherever possible, been preferred to technical and scientific language. These direc tions can be relied upon as accurate, as they have been thoroughly exam ined by your humble servant and practically tested by me and other competent men before being given to the public. There are many new recipes con tained in this book never before pub lished, and all are up-to-date. You will also find a few blank pages in the back of this book to write in any new concoction that you may learn. I remain, Yours respectfully, JAKE DIDIER:
