MANY WAYS TO SERVE EGGS

Albumen Water, for One Thing, Is Palatable and Highly Beneficial for Children.

After a bilious attack or any other kind of stomach trouble when a child cannot digest the yolk of the egg, it is possible to make the needed albumen more palatable by poaching just the white, removing the yolk before the white is dropped into the poacher. Of course this can only be done In the transition period after the albumen water (raw white shaken up In water) Is no longer strong enough. Those who have babies generally know how to make albumen water, but for the benefit of those who do not know, the proportion depends upon the age of the child. The usual formula for older children Is the white of one egg shaken up in a glass of water, put on ice or served with ice chopped with a little orange juice for flavoring, If the doctor will allow it. A refreshing drink for a sick person Is the white of egg shaken up in twothirds of a glass of water, mixed with the juice of a whole orange and half a lemon, with a little cracked ice. The add cuts the albumen and prevents the stringlness besides adding a delicious flavor, cooling to a fevered throat.
