EASE
BUT
WORK
ON.]
2292.
Lemon
and
Kali,
or
Sherbet.
Large
quantities
of
this
wholesome
and
refreshing
preparation
are
manufactured
and
consumed
every
summer;
it
is
sold
in
bottles,
and
also
as
a
beverage,
made
by
dissolving
a
large
teaspoonful
in
a
tumbler
two-thirds
filled
with
water.
The
ingredients
are--ground
white
sugar,
half
a
pound;
tartaric
acid
and
carbonate
of
soda,
of
each
a
quarter
of
a
pound;
essence
of
lemon,
forty
drops.
All
the
powders
should
be
well
dried;
add
the
essence
to
the
sugar,
then
the
other
powders;
stir
all
together,
and
mix
by
passing
twice
through
a
hair
sieve.
Must
be
kept
in
tightly-corked
bottles,
into
which
a
damp
spoon
must
not
be
inserted.
The
sugar
must
be
ground,
or
very
finely
pulverized,
in
a
pestle
and
mortar.
The
powdered
sugar
sold
for
icing
cakes
will
do.
2293.
Soda
Water
Powders.
One
pound
of
carbonate
of
soda,
and
thirteen
and
a
half
ounces
of
tartaric
acid,
supply
the
materials
for
256
powders
of
each
sort.
Put
into
blue
papers
thirty
grains
of
carbonate
of
soda,
and
into
white
papers
twenty-five
grains
of
tartaric
acid.
Directions.--Dissolve
the
contents
of
the
blue
paper
in
half
a
tumbler
of
water,
stir
in
the
other
powder,
and
drink
during
effervescence.
Soda
powders
furnish
a
saline
beverage
which
is
very
slightly
laxative,
and
well
calculated
to
allay
the
thirst
in
hot
weather.
2294.
Seidlitz
Powders.
Seidlitz
powders
are
usually
put
up
in
two
papers.
The
larger
blue
paper
contains
tartarized
soda
(also
called
Rochelle
salt)
two
drachms,
and
carbonate
of
soda
two
scruples;
in
practice
it
will
he
found
more
convenient
to
mix
the
two
materials
in
larger
quantity
by
passing
them
twice
through
a
sieve,
and
then
divide
the
mixture
either
by
weight
or
measure,
than
to
make
each
powder
separately.
One
pound
of
tartarized
soda,
and
five
ounces
and
a
half
of
carbonate
of
soda,
will
make
sixty
powders.
The
smaller
powder,
usually
placed
in
white
paper,
consists
of
tartaric
acid,
half
a
drachm.
