Bill Of Fare
The following bill of fare pages will be very valuable to the young and inexperienced housekeeper. It has been our endeavor to cover as wide a range as good practical common sense would allow. Courses for dinner parties, hints for other parties, collations, church sociables, picnics, and children's parties, are given. These bills of fare are subject to endless variations.
