Invalid Cookery.

Physicians agree that the proper
preparation of food for the sick is
often of more Importance than medi-
cines.
Arrange the tray as daintily as pos
sible, cover the tray with q spotless
cloth that just fits the tray. Select
the choicest china. making frequent
changes to avoid monotony. 1t is sur
prising what small things make or
mar the happiness of an invalid.
Arrange the tray as nearly as pos
sible as one does the table service.
II two or three courses may be served
to patient. have one removed before
the other is brought.
Avoid crowding the tray. Serve
small quantities Of food. 1t Is better
to send for more than to spoil the
appetite by serving too lavishly.
All foods which are intended to be
served hot, should be placed In heated
dishes and kept covered until the pa
tient Is reached.
Equal care should be observed with
cold dishes.
Never consult patient in regard to
his menu. He will inform you II there
is anything he especially desires. The
meal that is surprise is more apt to
create an appetite.
If liquid diet must be used, make
It as full of variety as possible. Often
milk is Objectionable and 1t forms the
chief food. Vary it by adding rennet
or making the milk into koumiss or
adding sparkling water like Apol-
linaris.
Barley and rice water are used to
reduce a laxative condition.
Toast water is used In extreme cases
of nausea,
Clam water may often be retained
when the stomach refuses to retain
other food.
Oatmeal water may be drunk on the
hottest days when Ice water would
be dangerous.
Fruit waters are refreshing. cooling
and stimulating and they are also val.
iuable in acids and salts.
Beef tea, II made from the fresh
beef, is more of stimulant than q
nutrient Beef essence is another food
both stimulating and nutritive.
Koumiss is prepared by warming a
quart of milk to blood heat. add one
and half tablespoonfuls of sugar, a
third of yeast cake dissolved in q
tablespoonful of lukewarm water. Fill
bottles within two inches of the top
tile down the corks and invert. Lei
stand over night at temperature OF
so degrees, Chill, and in another day
1t is ready to serve.

If the candy is boiled too long 1t will
be too brittle to handle.
The recipe for fondant is prepared

cream of tartar may be used instead
of the glucose. Boil until soft ball

ButtermIlk as Food.

Buttermilk is priced as a food and
medicine. AS all the properties of
skim milk are still in the milk, the
casein and mineral matter, which are
the valuable part of the milk are still
there. The Tactic acid In the butter
milk attacks and dissolves the earthly
deposits In the veins and arteries, SO
that there is no clogging. 1t is the
calcareous deposits in the veins and
joints which cause decay of the pow
ers, hardening of the arteries and stiff
fening of the joints. Buttermilk, II
freely drunk, postpones the infirmities
of age ten and twenty years. 1t is a
stimulation to the liver, skin and kid
neys. 1t tones the stomach and ia
changed into good rich red blood.
When feeling touch of rheumatism
drink buttermilk freely. Buttermilk
should be freshly churned to be whole
some.

bread with buttermilk which was
wholesome and of fine flavor. For a
quick bread the following Is q good
recipe:

fuls of -four half a teaspoonful of salt,
a teaspoonfuI of cream of tartar and
half teaspoonful of soda. Sift we'll
