Buttermilk.
Hallis Journal of Health. A physician once said that if everyone knew the value of buttermilk as a drink it would be more freely partaken of by persons who drink so excessively of other beverages, and further compared its effect on the system to the cleaning out of a cook stove that has been clogged up with ashes that have sifted through, - filii ng - every crevice and crack, saying that the human system is like the stove, and collects and gathers refuse matter that can in no way be exterminated from the system so effectually as by drinking buttermilk. It is also a remedy for indigestion, soothes and quiets the nerves and is very somnolent to those who are troubled with sleeplessness. Its medical properties cannot be overrated, and it should be freely used by all who can get it. Every one who values good health Bhould drink buttermilk every day, and let tea, coffee, and water alone. For the benefit of those who are not already aware of it, I may add that in the churning the first process of digestion is gone through, making it one of the easiest and quickest of all things to digest. It makes gastric juice, and contains properties that readily assimilate with it, with very little wear upon the digestive organs. F. J. Cheney A Co,, proprietor!
