A Good Stimulant.

If you want something that will nourish your flagging powers, without overloading your stomach (says a writer In the " New Tork Tribune"), order a glass of milk, and order it hot, as hot as you can sip lt. Tou may not like it while you are drinking it, but, after you have once experienced the soothing effect it soon has on your nerves, and the added strength it seems almost Immediately to impart, you will not be deterred from using lt because of its peculiar taste. Sip it slowly. Take four minutes at least to finish a glassful, and don't take more than a good teaspoonful at one sip. When that milk goes Into the stomach lt is instantly curdled. If you drink a large quantity at once it is curdled into one big mass, on the out9ide of which only the juices of the stomach can work. If you drink it in little sips, each little sip ls curdled up by itself, and the whole glassful finally finds Itself in a loose lump made up of little lumps, through, around, and among which the stomach's juices may percolate and dissolve the whole speedllv and simultaneously. Many people who like milk, and know its value as a gtrength-giver, think they cannot use lt because lt gives them Indigestion. Most Df them could use it freely If they would anly drink it in the way I have described, or if they would, better still, drink it hot. Hot milk seems to lose a good deal of its density ; you would almost think It had been watered, and it also seems to lose much of its sweetness, which ia I cloying to aome appetites. Hot food generally is coming more and more into favour among sensible women, who are wide awake as to the effect on their beauty and good health. Tees and indigestion go hand In hand, and cold drinks and dyspepsia lie dpwn together.
