On my journey to England oue day formed an agreea

"Asyou succeeded in doing this, dear Doctor said
perhaps You can help also" And complained 10
him that for long time, bad suffered from dorderei

tween the and the abuse of thing"
by all means my fellow cOuntr ymlnn returned he;
the use OF oxcsng drinks much frequent
than the called abuse But they both, this account
do not to manifest their injurious scts on the hu
system, you yourself have already experienced
Intoxicating liquor is in All circumstances poison Mark

the contrary iDcrt it, 1t does not afford noursnmen
for II has nourshng properties in IT, On the contrary
il evidently eskens the stomach and bowels. Ii cord

health but helps TO destroy IT, The history OF drinkers

Doctor" said l. you almost make me afraid of my
pretty face Of opinion that the injury resulting from
wine and brandy arises from the abuse OF them and to this
adhere Ii the abuse Of them only that converts them
into poison
no my fellow cOuntryman not that sOne cried the
Doctor but the alcohol is the poison With from one TO
two glasses full Of pure alcohol you can almost instantly
kill sound healthy person who is not accustomed TO
strong drink Even when mixed with other substances
alcohol fsstens itself upon the seeds Of disease in the sys
tenn and them gradually to produce their dreful
effects Wine and beer, when very moderately taken are
less injurious than pure brandy because they less
per cent alcohol and in good German wine from four
eight per Good French wines contain frem ten to
nineteen per cent OF this poison and Spanish and Port
wines from nineteen to twenty-five per cent. Brandy
cherry bounce whisky, and other liquors no Eeyer
contain from twenty four to fifty three per ceai OF alcohol
This makes a difference"
"You believe, then Doctor, in reality that the alcohol
is the destructive poisonous principle And yet il is
used FOR medicinal purposes y
Most certainly just "a use quicksilver or mercuryas
smecicne but never 50 SnOJrshaient or for daily
Alcohol is and remains poison, much 80 as mercury
Like mercury penrtraes the blood and bones is cast of

in part passes Of the system unchanged and in part
remains in Il unchanged
