A Happy New Year
"A Happy New Year. Haddocks. Come to your milk now."
A Victorian-era New Year calling or greeting card with a hand-drawn sketch.
"Come to your milk" seems to have had a specific meaning in the nineteenth century beyond pulling on a calf's tail to try to get it to drink out of a milk bucket. Besides a few hits on the phrase in Google Books, however, I haven't uncovered any source that reveals what that meaning might have been.
