Example: "A little knowledge of cookery is a wonderful thing. In a bachelor, it's added glamor. For the poor fellow married to a shrew, it means rescue when everything, nutritionally, begins to go black. For the man happy in harness whose Mrs. is away, it's assurance he can go on munching. To the host, when the boys drop in for poker, it means ability to stir up something in a jiffy with resultant beaming at compliments."
