Though in the near future dairy products may be largely superseded by those of the nut family, there are still many who will prefer ordinary cow’s milk, if only that can be obtained pure, free from germs, and unadulterated.  Such is to be found, we are glad to learn, in the Sterile Dry Milk supplied by the

West Surrey Dairy Co.,

who have succeeded, after much careful experiment and testing, in producing milk which in the process of preparation has been deprived of no element save germs and water.  The simple addition of warm water, therefore, is all that is needed to restore it to the condition of new milk.  Having lost nothing of its nutritive value, grape sugar, or organic salts, it forms a safe and valuable food for infants, and should do much to lessen the dangers of feeding by hand.  It may be had Full cream, Half-cream, or “Separated,” so that the most delicate digestion can be suited.  Besides its use for infants and invalids, it can enter into the composition of any food where milk is ordinarily used, or where additional nutriment is desired.  It may be added either dry or diluted—­as most convenient.  One strong point in its favour is that there is no danger of its turning sour or going bad in any way—­the constant danger with fresh milk; but, of course, only the quantity required for immediate use should be diluted at one time.  This Milk Powder, also compressed Tablets, can be got from all Health Food Stores, as also from most grocers and warehousemen.  If any difficulty, it can be had from Headquarters, in small packets at a trifling extra cost, and in larger quantities carriage paid.

“Wallacite Reg.  ‘P.R.’  Specialties.”

In various parts of book, readers will have noticed commendatory reference to several “Wallacite” goods, and I would here urge that all seeking a pure, wholesome dietary in health or sickness, should give them a trial.  The range of foods is practically unlimited, every requirement of health or palate being suited, but all alike composed of pure, wholesome ingredients, guaranteed free from such deleterious substances or adulterants as yeast, chemicals, artificial colouring matter, mineral salt, &c.  The variety of biscuits and cakes ranges from the plainest sorts, to suit the dyspeptic or ascetic, to the most delectable dainties for afternoon tea, not forgetting Oaten Shortcakes to specially delight the “Canny Scot.”  Nor need any one be at a loss to obtain supplies, for, besides the various Health Food Depots mentioned (see inside front cover), customers can obtain 5s. worth of cakes and biscuits carriage paid to any part of the United Kingdom, direct from headquarters, 466 Battersea Park Road, London.

Besides the “Bakery” products there are many additions to one’s resources generally.  There is “Stamina” Food for infants invalids, and, curiously enough, athletes.  It is exceedingly palatable for general use in puddings, pancakes, &e., while gruel can be prepared in a few minutes.  Use one part “Stamina” Meal to four parts of fast-boiling liquid, stock, milk and water, &c.; simmer five minutes, and it is ready.
