Pickles and Milk All Right in Combination Once upon a time there was a set theory that certain foods fought with one another -after they had been taken into the stomach. And when y.3 daughters of the family got to the "pickles and milk" age there was much anxiety and many commands on the part of mother, father, aunties and grandmothers. "Pickles and milk are a deadly combination," com-bination," they said. "You may drink milk and then at another meal eat pickles, but never, oh never, must they be brought together in the stomach. Your stomach won't stand for It. It must be pickles alone and milk alone." The daugjiters of that generation sighed and longed for milk while they ate pickles and longed for pickles while they drank milk; but as they didn't wish to "die In their tracks" they seldom dared brins the two things together. But this generation is eat-ing eat-ing the pickles ami drinking the milk i at the same time recklessly, for the theory has been proven a worthless one. And bow their mcv.hers who went ' either pickleless or milkless regret that the pickle-milk theory did not I explode many years ago. Springfield Cnion.
