The Australian lady of; station who does
not know how to cook, one rime almost say ,
does not exist, Every detail of the cuisine,.
she 1B acquainted with. A story is told by :
'Austrian ladies a another who, having nea
'elected 'her education, 'allowed, at it great
dinner party she gave, two dishes of the
. ta.me 'color to be served in succession, a fault
for which she. was hardly tole forgiven.
'The Priecesses of the Royal houteholds at.
tend a course of le/Antes from a chief entire-
ly upon the order of serving. Young ladle's •
• do not learn the art of cooking at cooking
clubs, or fried public lessons as hoe Ain -
erica, mid they rarely learn in their own
-kitchens. It is the enstem togo to some .
- great house, the house eta Princess, or At a
eery rich hanker'e, svhere there are famous
chefs, front whoni they learn. When, a
chef engages to cook Mr a -great houise he
stipulates that he is -to have the privilege Of *.
teaching as manjettouneladies'es he chooses. "
These yeeng ladies need not even know the
Mistress of the house, end they make their
, arrangements with the cook only: For' a
Mune of lessons lasting through the winter
each pupil pays the cock 30 .gulden, about
$15. :This includes instil:Schen in every
particular. .1f a banquet is to be given, a
grand breakfast, or an elaborate supper,
the young ladies are potifiede and are •there
to see the dishes decimated and to learn the
order of serving. They watch every pro -

girls suffused- with blushes e for these les-
sons always foretell marriage, and are the
last and finishing touches of a maiden's edu-
cation. But it would be a breach of etiquette

.in that department, which_ belongs to the '

very much as if the cooks of the Asters hind
Vanderbilts were permitted to receive a half

the occasion of a very grand dinner party
and exhla,in to them the rnysteries• of each
