MY dear child" said the elder COM

vice. The chief aim of every sensible
woman to-day is to keep healthy. With

have no appetite. If you want some.

stomach. order a glass of milk and or
der it hot, as hot as YOU can sip it.
You may not like it while you are
drinking it. but after you have once ex-
perienced the soothing effect it soon
has on your nerves, and the added
strength it seems almost Immediately
to impart. you will not be deferred
from using it because of its peculiar
taste.
Now, don't swallow it so fast and
in such big gulps." she added as her
companion was drinking the hot milk
which had been ordered, just about as
one would toss off a glass of soda wa
ter before the etfervescence was all
over. Sip it slowly. Take four min.

when that milk goes into your
stomach it is instantly curdled. If you
drink Il large quantity at once it is
curdIed into one big mass. on the out
side of which only the juices of the
stomach can work. If you drink it
in little sips, each little sip is curdled
up by itself and the whole glassful
finally finds itself in loose lump made
up of little Jumps, through around,
and among which the stomach's juices
may percolate and dissolve the whole

MANY people who like milk and

think they can not use it because it
could use it freely if they would only
drink it in the way l have described,
or if they would, better still, drink it
hot. Hot milk seems to lose good
deal of its density; you would almost
think it had been watered. and it also
seems to lose much of its sweetness,
which is cloying to some appetites. Ii
the poor only knew and appreciated
the value of milk taken in this way,
am sure there would not be so much
beer-drinking among them. There are
thousands of Woodworking scrubwo-
men. washwomen, factory girls, and
even shop-girls in this city who drink
beer with their meals because it gives
a little Stimulant to their tired bodies,
and don't understand that it is only APP
plying whip to a weary horse instead
of giving him oats. If they only knew.
they would find in this simple draught
as much real strength rs in u barrel of
beer.
In fact, hot food generally is COM
ing more and more into favor among
sensible women who are wide-awake
as to the effects on their beauty of
good health. Ices and indigestion go
hand in hand, cold drinks and dyspep-
STA lie down together, and warm bouil-
lon is getting to be as common tea
at receptions, at home, and o'clock
