CURATIVE FRUIT JUICES.


In Riley NJ. Fletcher Berry's work
on Fruit Juices" there are some de-
licious recipes for the use of fruits
and at this season OF the year when
the blood needs toning after the win
ter 1t will be well to observe some OF
the good uses to which the juices of
fruits may be put.
Baked Lemon or Orange Bake a
lemon or an orange in the oven until
soft and eat 1t hot with or without
sugar Just before retiring. Skip the
evening meal and follow the fruit
treatment with good drink of water.
This should be followed up for several
nights in succession. This Is an ex-
cellent remedy for colds.
Cider Egg Nosg - To one egg
whipped and sweetened slightly with
sugar add glass Of cider. sprinkle
with grated nutmeg and serve with
shaved ice or serve hot.
Flaxsecd lemonade--An old-fash-
toned and effective remedy for cold Is
this laxative drink. Pour quart of
boiling water over cupful Of flax
seed. Add the Juice OF two lemons
and sugar as required Let steep in a
covered jar for several hours and
drink hot. thinned with boiling water
II so desired, just before retiring.
italian Cure for Malarla--Slice thin
one lemon. rind and all. and place in
a saucepan Over this pour one and
half rintc ~ nrId xvota,- ara ,,,,ot, y7<.u,x,
to half pint. then strain through
coarse cloth. so that some OF the pulp
goes through Let stand until cool and
drink fasting This should be kept UP
for several days
Lemon for Headache---The Juice OF
large lemon squeezed into a small
cup OF strong black coffee with no
sugar will often prevent or cure
headache.
Using lemon with tea is not fad or
fancy, but wise combination as the
citric acid of the lemon offsets the tan
nic acid in the tea, rendering it re-
freshing and wholesome.
The lemon is valuable for purifying
the blood and toning the system 1t
acts directly on the liver, cools the
blood and some physicians claim 1t
drives away typhoid germs.
Next to the citrus fruits the pine
apple is found to be most beneficial In
its effects on the human system. 1t
is rich in mineral salts and contains
an active substance which has the
power Of digesting proteids.

PAsTEuRlzlNc MILK.


While there are some objections to
pasturized milk for infants, the adj
vantages of intelligently pasteurized
milk where the source of supply is not
safe, are very great and the death rate
In cities where this milk is sold, has
been most wonderfully reduced. The
object of this treatment is to kill or
render harmless the germs In unclean
milk by the application OF heat.
Too high heat used on milk will
make It constipating and II really ster-
ilized as would be the case with boiled
milk. the properties are so changed as
well as the taste that 1t lis not only
distasteful to most babies but is con-
stipating to nearly all. Boiled milk Is
not a suitable food for any one unless
there is constipator needed Too lit
tie heat will not kill germs and so the
method which gives the best results
is used
The right heat is from $50 to 1856
degrees some say 1866 Is The best tenn
perature- keeping the milk at this tenn
perature for 20 to 80 minutes and then
quickly cooling II and keeping 1t cool
until needed.
The reprehensible habit OF some
mothers In keeping milk warm for an
indefinite period is most dangerous for
the warm milk II not completely ster-
lie, tan almost impossible thing) Is a
fne field In which bacteria may grow.
Pasteurized milk should not be used
older than two days and any one with
a little care may prepare the milk
safely.
There Is no process OF purifying
milk from injurious bacteria SO good
as that of positively clean and healthy
milk. Such milk because of the cost
OF production puts 1t beyond the reach
of the poor and SO II seems necessary
that each mother should have the
knowledge to prepare milk and keep
1t from danger
certain amount of bacteria In milk
is necessary for it's value and of course
by killing bad bacteria the good are
also destroyed Infants fed exclusive
ly on sterile milk are said to lose after
a while so that Il is necessary to try
other milk A high grade Of eyapo-
rated milk in emergency as we'll as
condensed milk may be used with good
results as most OF the brands of such
milk are carefully prepared from good
clean milk and are considered quite
safe.

thing, either work or fun.
There was scarcely anything

Florida's Valuable Springs.

The great development of under
ground drainage in many parts of Flor
ida has given rise TO many springs at
places where streams emerge from
subterannean channels. The number
of such springs is very great In size
they vary from mere seeps TO dis
charges which give rise to creeks and
rivers large enough to float good-sized
passenger and freight steamers. The
best-known and largest is the Silver
spring, in Marion county. which gives
rise to large stream Of remarkable
