Lemon Whey

Put half a pint of milk into a saucepan. When it boils, pour in a table-spoonful of lemon-juice; add more if this does not effectually turn the milk. Let it boil up, then put it into a bowl to settle; strain and sweeten, and add a little hot water if the whey is too acid to be aggreeable. This whey is excellent for inducing perspiration. Time, a few minutes. Probable cost, 3d. Sufficient for rather less than half a pint of whey.
