Of interest to the manufacturer of articles for the household are the for mulas for Table Sauces — these are actual working formulas, no guess work but do it just so. The Sauce that's just as good, on page 314, has a fine aromatic ?avor and is a pungent appetizer. The Croft's Sauce, page 91, is a sauce of high grade quality. The Delmonico Sauce, page 92, is a second qual ity sauce in which the pressed marc from the Croft's Sauce may be used to ads vantage.
