Squeeze, free from pips the juice of two oranges and one lemon into a half-pint tumbler. Add one piece of lump sugar, and fill up with hot water. This is not a beverage for all occasions, but is particularly efficacious in warding off a severe cold. Persons feeling the premonitions of a cold should sip a tumblerful of this liquid, as hot as possible, upon retiring to bed, and, if warmly wrapped, will find in the morning that the cold has been averted. The stimulating and strengthening effect of orange juice in the case of influenza patients, has now been recognized for a considerable time. ,
