FOOTNOTES:[25]Formerly called Graham meal.[26]I shall use these terms indiscriminately, as they mean in practice the same thing.[27]Both these processes are patented in Great Britain. The bread thus retains its sweetness—no waste of its saccharine matter, and no residuum except muriate of soda or common salt. Sesquicarbonate of soda is made of three parts or atoms of the carbonic acid, and two of the soda.[28]Keep butter and all greasy substances away from every preparation of food which belongs to this division—especially from green peas, beans, corn, etc.[29]Some prepare them, and soak them in water over the night.[30]In general, the appetites of the sick are taken away by design. In such cases there should be none of the usual forms of indulgence. A little bread—the crust is best—is the most proper indulgence. If, however, the appetite is raging, as in a convalescent state it sometimes is, puddings and even gruel may be proper, because they busy the stomach without giving it any considerable return for its labor.
