191 PASTRY-SCHOOL. I had the curiofity to en- quire into the defign of this extraordinary Aca- demy, and found it was calculated to inftruft young ladies in the art and myftery of tarts and cheefe-cakes. The fcholars were, indeed, chiefly of the lower clafs, except a few notable young girls from the city, with two or three parfons daughters, out of the country, intended for fer- vice. As houfewifely accomplifhments are now quite out of date among the polite world, it is no wonder that Mr. Kiddt...r has no fliare in the education of our young ladies of quality : and I appeal to any woman of fafhion, whether flic would not as foon put her daughter apprentice to a wafher- woman, to learn to clear-ftarch and get up fine linen, as fend her to the Paftry- School to be inftru&ed in raifed cruft and puff pafte. The good dames of old, indeed, were not afhamed to make thefe arts their ftudy : but in this refined age we might fooner expect to fee a kitchen-wench thumbing Hoylis Treatife on Whift, than a fine lady collecting receipts for making puddings, or poring over the Complete Art of Cookery.
