THE DELMONICO COOK-BOOK. How to Buy Food, how to Cook it, and how to 
Serve it. By Alexandro Filippini (for twenty-five years Chef at Delmonico’s, 
New York). Large 8m, pp. 438, strongly bound in white American cloth , 12 s. 
This work is designed not only for Clubs, Hotels and Restaurants, but more especially 
for Private Families. In it will be found Menus for Breakfast, Luncheon and Dinner for 
every day in the year, beside Menus for Celebrated Dinners which have been given at 
Delmonico’s from time to time. 
The most valuable portion of the work is the collection of 1,394 recipes, which occupy 
242 pages. 
A complete Index is to be found at the end. 
A special feature is the binding in American cloth, which can be washed when greased 
in the kitchen. 
“ There are few people to whom the name of Delmonico is unknown. . . . that a cookery book pre- 
pared by a chef of that famous establishment should excite some interest in the world of dinners even over 
here, is only natural. To begin at the beginning, or rather the outside of B'ilippini’s volume, a word of praise 
is due to Brentano’s, the publishers, for the particularly appropriate and convenient binding of white American 
cloth, which as long as there is a soft damp duster anywhere handy, can always be kept up to its pristine 
daintiness— no small recommendation to A BOOK WHICH IS SURE TO FIND ITS WAY TO ANY 
KITCHEN RULED BY A COOK WORTHY OF THE NAME.”— Queen. 
“ We can strongly recommend the work.” — Field. 
“ Every one, it may be presumed, has heard of Delmonico’s, the famous New York Restaurant ; a happy 
minority have been privileged to dine there.” — Spectator. 
11 There are good things in Filippini.” — Sat ui day Review. 
STATESMEN’S DISHES AND HOW TO COOK THEM. Practical Autographic 
Recipes by Two Hundred Women, prominent in official and social life at the National 
Capital. 
This collection of recipes is of unprecedented interest and value. Nothing approaching 
it has ever before been offered to the public. All the ladies who have kindly contributed, are 
noted in Washington circles, and far beyond these confines, as hostesses and housekeepers. 
They are universally recognised as leaders, and the excellence of their entertainments has 
done very much toward building up the reputation of the Capital for refined hospitality. 8vo,

THE BERKSHIRE COMIC COOK-BOOK AND DYSPEPTIC’S GUIDE 
TO THE GRAVE. By F. H. Curtis. Paper , ir. 6 d. 
“ This is not a book to be read through at a single reading. It is a volume to be perused between meals 
and at odd times. Do not ruin your constitution by endeavouring to memorise its contents all at once.” — 
A uthors Preface. 
MARGERY DAW’S HOME CONFECTIONERY. By Lucy W. Bostwick, 
12 mo, 2 s. 6d. 
“ A charming little manual as dainty in appearance as its contents seem enticing ; it cannot fail in delight- 
ing every household which includes one sweet tooth among its number.” — The Queen. 
“SHORT SIXES. 5 ’ By H. C. Bunner. 4s. 
“This little volume on the whole well deserves a place in that rapidly growing collection of American 
short stories which find their way across the Atlantic.” — The Queen. 
“Under this title Messrs. Brentano publish a volume of delightful ‘stories to be read while the candle 
burns,’ by Mr. H. C. Bunner, editor of ‘ Puck.’ They all have a quite original humour of their own with which 
the illustrating artists, Mr. C. Jay Taylor, Mr. F. Opper, and Mr. S. B. Griffin are much in sympathy. Ex- 
pectation is keenly aroused by the opening tale ‘ The Tenor,’ yet there is not a disappointing story in the 
whole thirteen. All the plots are laid in the States; but their interest is by no means purely local. No one 
will regret having sought amusement in ‘ Short Sixes.’ It is to be found there.” — Graphic.
