Democratic Sentinel, Volume 2, Number 40, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 15 November 1878 — Egg-Flip. [ARTICLE]

Egg-Flip.

Mr. Gladstone, the English statesman, has high appreciation of hen-fruit, as appears by the following, from his pen: “ When I have had very lengthened statements to make, I have used egg-flip—a glass of sherry beaten up with an egg. I thing it is excellent, but I have more faith in the egg than in the alcohol. I never think of employing it unless on the rare occasions when I have expected to go much beyond an hour.”
