Lime Water Recipe

Slack four ounces of quick lime with a little water, and

gradually add enough water to make a gallon in all; let it stand three

hours, then bottle it in glass-stoppered bottles, putting a portion of

the undissolved lime in each bottle; when you want to use some, pour off

the clear fluid from the top.



Children should never have tea, coffee, or liquor; all these drinks hurt

them; give them milk, or milk and water; or pure water, if you cannot

afford milk. But you had better scant their clothes than their supply of

milk. If you have to limit the supply of food, deny them something else,

but give them plenty of bread and scalded milk, and you can keep them

healthy.
