Penn Monthly.

The article in the August Penn Monthly
which WIN attract most attention, is that by
DR. Robt 7. Eals "On the Use of Alcohol in
Dict" The subject is treated with great sci
entifc thoroughncss and precision; and, while
the writer concludes that alcohol used in diet
is always poison, he We, says.
1t is to great extent question of quantity
of dilu,on and of time, and while It can he
shown that alcohol but slightly diluted IN the
form of distilled liquors is far from bcing IN
nocent hut is first an irritant and then mar
cotic poison, it may with equal truth be as
serted tina, diluted and with meals, especially
in the form of beer or light wines, alcohol is
one of the mildest of irritants and one of the
slowcst of poisons, and that the duration OF
time necessary for it TO produce fatal effects is
far in excess of any ordinary lifetime.
In the next article, Satan Anticipated" VIM.
W. Kinsley, proposes to show that God, after
having determined to create man, anticipated
Satan, 50 to speak, leaving man to work out
his own perfection in spite ofhim. 1t is very
curious bito metaphysical speculation.
