A CIP OF RITTERS.

Thoughtless people would have the world
made up of sweets; they would expunge
bitter substances as useless. When, how
ever, we look into ~nature's laboratory, We
see that bitters have net been made in vain.
The consumption of bitter substances by
the human family is 80 great that 1t can on
~ be compared to the demand for sweets -
Bitter substances, like sweets, can be ex-
tracted from a great variety Of plants growing
10 different parts vt the earth.
The purest bitter principle is yielded by
the %ouassia tree, so called after a negro
named Quassi, who used it with remarkable
succ ess 10 csriug a malignant fever which
prevailed at Surinam. Nearly ell the bit
ter plants are called E6rituge from their
power to cure fever. 1t is not, however, in
i'll health that bitters are solely used, but
in ordinary beverages. which are not abso-
lutely essential to support life. The priDci-
pal bitter used 10 England is we'll known to
be derived from the hop plant; in Germany
it is from wormwood; in Italy it is from ab.
sintb. In the later country we zee men
smoking their cigars, and if l~eisurely con
yersing, they drink "bottled atsiDth," which
to an English palate, is so bitter as to be
perfectly nauseous. In the Levant they eat
u eUTt vi RpuTu vi DittSi OuSuihoS'' SA
of the Biblical interpreters think that this Is
the plant spoken of in the second book of
Kings, chap. 5, yer. 39-4l, Oh tasting which
for the first time the people exclaimed to
Elisha, "tbere is death in the pot but on
being mixed with meal there was mo harm
10 it," In Scotland they dry and chew the
roots of the bitter vetoh; these roots are also
put into their whiskey. The bitter vetch IS
reputed to have the power Of sllaying hunger
and thirst for a heightened period; but IN
London the "evening topers" drink b'tters
in the morning to stimulate the appetite.
There are a great many other bitter
plants used in various parts Of the world
In Sweden the marsh sedum, or wild rose
mary, takes the place of the hop; aud IN
North America they have a plant called Lab
