Daily Telegraph: "Rude and rugged these old bush songs are, but they carry in their vigorous lines the very impress of their origin and of their genuineness…Mr. Paterson has done his work like an artist."}}


COOKERY BOOK OF GOOD AND TRIED RECEIPTS.

Compiled for the Presbyterian Women's Missionary Association.

Twelfth edition, enlarged, completing 145,000 copies. Crown 8vo., cloth, 1s. (postage 1d.)

Extract from Preface: "The young and inexperienced housekeeper need have no fear of failure provided she follows carefully the directions given, as the aim of this book has always been, not only to provide wholesome and economical receipes for capable housewives, but to help those who have not had the benefit of maternal guidance and home training. It is significant that many discerning women have made a habit of giving a copy of the 'Presbyterian Cookery Book' to every new bride of their acquaintance."
