A good deal has been said through the papers about the healthfulncss of lemons. The latest advice Is bow to uso them so they will do the most good, as follows i Most people know tho benefit of lemonndo before breakfast, but few know that It Is more than doubled by taking another nt lght also. Tho way to get tho better of the bilious system without blue pills or iilnlne, Is to tnke the Juice of one, two or three lemons, ns appetite craves, inasmuch Ico water as makes it pleasant to drink without sugar, before going to bed. In Hie morning, on rising, at least a half hour beforo breakfast, tnko the Juice of ono lem on In a coblct of water. This will clear the system of a humor nnd bllo with cfllca cy, without any of the weakening effects of calomel or congress water. People should not Irritate tho stomach by eating lemons clear, the powerful acid of thu nice, which is almost corrosive, Invariably produces Inflammation nfter a while, but properly diluted so that It docs not burn or draw the throat, it does its medical work without harm, and when tho stomach is clear of food, has abundant opportunity to work over tho system thoroughly, says n medical authority.

This is necessary for thu fol lowing reasons t f irst, cxposuro to pure air prevents tho formation of acid in milk, It is known that milk will sour very rapid' ly In the close atmosphere of a cellar which tho air has been deoxidized by means of decaying vegetable matter, or in which tho posts or beams arc affected by dry rot, bccondly, we know that this first souring is duo to a change of the milk sugar into lactic ncld, a spontaneous change In which no alteration of the elements has occurrer and which requires nothing more than tho mcru absence of oxygen to affect it 'I Ids change will take placu very quick ly, ns many milk dairymen find to their surprise nnd cost when milk is canned tightly beforo it lias been cooled and aired siilllclently. Thirdly, wo know that this needed airing simply affects tho oxidation of the milk required to destroy tho germ present lu It, and by tlio operation of which tlio change of thu milk sugar to milk acid Is produced. Fourthly, it is known that exposures to nir, und necessarily to oxygen which Is tho only active element lu thu air, develops a high flavor in tlio cream and In thu butter mado from It, and that cream so exposed to the air, or, as wu term It In common pailance, ripened, churns moro easily than any other cream, and produces the very best quality of butter us regards color and flavor. Tho fact Is, tho flavor of butter, and of cheese as well, is developed only by n process of oxidation, airing or ripening, for all theso terms mean tho samo thing, and If tho dairy or cheese-room Is not well ventilated and provided with nn abundance of fiesli, pure, moving air, good bultcr or cheese cannot bo made.
