'take a powder?' is the definition.
'stomach' can be an answer for 'take' (I've seen this before). I'm not certain of the 'a powder?' bit.

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for stomach that I've seen before include "Internal organ" , "Could Mac host this organ?" , "stand" , "Breadbasket (informal)" , "Appetite for food" .)
