The Kitchen Leaven Is Working.

The Peoplo's Kitchen, recently established in Vienna, is an amplification of the kitchens already in successful operation in America, on tho model of the famous New England Kitchen of Boston. The Viennese have taken so kindly to tho palatablo cooking and wholesome menus provided for them that their kitchen is furnishing fifty thousand meals daily. The prices, of course, are soaled down to the minimum, and permit a porson to dine comfortably for seven cents. For this sum ho may huve soup, moat, vegetables, pudding and coffee, with fruit or cheese by way of an appetizing finish. A supper of hold moat, vegetables, pudding, with tea or ooffoe, also costs seven cents, but it is possiblo to breakfast on coffee, soup, hapi and eggs and bread for four cents. Greater, oven than tho low prions, is the advantage to the ignorant classes of good food prepared in an appetizing way. It is this enlightenment which it is hoped in all such enterprises will prove the thin edge of tho wedge that shall drive asunder the rock of stupidity upon which more than tho ignorant classes have gone to pieces in the cooking lino. Scientific cooking is no longer a name; it is a recognized necessity, and its dyspeptic substitute is not to be longer put up with.
