CASTOR OIL—MAKING IT EASY TO TAKE

Castor oil may be taken with ease if its taste be disguised. One way is

to put a tablespoonful of orange juice in a glass, pour the castor oil

into the center of the juice, where it will stay without mixing, and

then squeeze a few drops of lemon juice upon the top of the oil, rubbing

some of the same juice on the edge of the glass. The person who drinks

the dose without delay will find the nauseous flavor completely covered.

The French administer castor oil to children in a novel way. They pour

the oil into a pan over the fire, break an egg into it and “scramble”

them together. When it is cooked they add a little salt or sugar or some

jelly, and the sick child eats it agreeably without discovering the

disguise.

Castor oil may be beaten with the white of an egg until they are

thoroughly mixed and not difficult to take.
