Barley Water.
. Put 2 tablespoonfuls of pearl barley and water into a saucepan on the fire. When water boils pour it away. Add 1 pint of fresh cold water, bring it to the boil and then let simmer until the water looks milky. A bit of lemon rind peeled thinly kept in it for a while to extract the flavor is an improvement. Then strain and sweeten. . In cooking for invalids remember that milk which has been .standing any time in a jug should always be carefully poured into another, leaving a. little at the bottom, 'for this ' portion of the milk is injurious to health and has been often known to cause typhoid fever..
