THE KINGSWOOD COOKERY BOOK.

We have received from Messrs. Angue and Robertson, of Sydney the hingveood Coohenj Book by 11. F. Wicken, M.C.A. Then- is no dearth of this clasa of literature, bur, as moat of the cookery books for sale here are compiled p incipally for the people oi the United Kingdom, the necessity of one dealing solely with the conditions of life which prevail in the*e CoL-mea is apparent, and this the volume before uh fills. A great number of the Home books relating to the culinary art devote a great part of their hpace to recipes for dishes to suit the fastidious taste* of epicure--, but in this instance we have directions maiuly for cooking for middlt-c'ass people, who have neither the tastes nor the purses of millionaires Ttiat th» Kingsuood Coohiry Booh has found favor already with the housewives of Australia i* evidenced by the fa-t that it i* in its fifth edition. As it is sold at the moderate price of one '•hilling, and runs close on to 400 page*, it is luedle.-s to Bay that it is good value, e-peciaUy when we take into account that it contains fully (on a rough calculation) 1000 recipes, besides a very useful introduction. The youngest and most inexperienced housewife cannot fail to produce a palatable and well-cooked meal if she follows carefully the instructions, and these are so clear and simple that it is almost impossible to make a mistake,
