MILK AND SODA-WATER
Into a glass half full of fresh milk put an equal quantity of soda-water. Use at once. This is an agreeable way to take milk, and is a nutritious and refreshing drink.
TOAST-WATER
Cut three slices of bread each a third of an inch thick, and toast them slowly until very brown and dry throughout; break them into small pieces, put them into a bowl with a pint of cold water, and set aside to soak for an hour; at the end of that time turn it into a strainer or napkin, and squeeze out the liquid with the back of a spoon. To the water thus obtained add a little cream and sugar, and serve it cold in a tumbler. It may also be served without the cream.
BARLEY-WATER
1 Tablespoon of barley flour.
1 Teaspoon of sugar.
1 Teaspoon of lemon-juice.
1 Quart of water.
Boil the flour, water, and sugar together fifteen minutes, then add the lemon-juice, and strain.
