and the number of eggs 2, given raw. It is served iced, and with a
teaspoon. When the sugar is added it is beaten up with the eggs (20
gm.). The milk and eggs are divided into separate feedings and given

give the amounts called for in the Lenhartz diet after the sixth day,

amount ordered than men.
