Tea and Coffee are Injurious.
Questioh-Is the use of coffee an,

Question-ls the use OF coffee and
tea with our meals injurious2
Answer-They have been charged
with producing dyspepsias, neuralgias
and other injurious effects on the
stomach, bowels and nervous system
generally.
quote the opinions of the following
well-known authors upon this subject,
and would add that my own personal
and professional experience fully coin
cides with the views herein present
ed:
DR.. Johnson says: We are con-
WINGED by many years observation
that very macy of the diseases we are
called upon to treat, as dyspepsia,
nervous and sick headache, heart
diseases, paralysis, epilepsy, neuralgia,
etc, ARE the Legitimate and certain fruit
of these narcotic stimulauts.
Hannemann describes number of
diseases induced by these beverages,
and assures us "that they are most
insiduous and dangerous enemies,
which slowly and silently undermine
the citadel of life itself
DR.. Bell says, expressly, that coffee
mas "peruicious effect npon the stom-
ach, bowels and nervous system gener
ally.
DR.. Shurtlef, of Boston, says, ''ot
all the common beverages drank in
society, coffee is decidedly the worst.
DR.. Graham declares that "both tea
and coffee are among the most power
full poisoDs of the vegetable kingdom.
DR.. Combe observes, that ''tea and
coffee not only ruin the stomach, but
seriously Gerange the health OF the
BRAIN and the nervous system"
DR.. Teste says, that 'cotfee is re-
sponsibe for six or seven-tenths of the
neuralgia we have to treat daily"
Question-We often hear the term
'tea drunkard." Will you tell US wha,
class of people is meant by it?
Answer-Their number lis legion
they are of both sexes, but more OF
women than of men. Instead OF
using tea in moderation, or as an
occasional beverage, they swill it down
three or four times a day, in quantities
that are Incompatible with health
They are as much slaves to the teapot
as the drunkard is to his bottle. They
are tea-druukards. Tea, in anything
but great moderation, is poison capa
BILE of running the stomach, enteeblng
and disordering the hearts action, shat
te,ing the nerves and running the
health and happiness of the victim
In few words, without holding that
the use of tea is as bad as the use OF
alcoholic liquors, one may well believe
that the total abstinence retormers
have, in their red. zeal against rum
encouraged an indulgence in tea-drlnk
ing which will one day have to be
fought against with might aud main tc
prevent the whole sale ruin of multi
iudes. A tea .drunkard may be defined
as one who drinks strong tea severa
times a day, who depends on it instead
of food and rest for strength, and who
cannot go without it without bringing
on distressing symptoms.

Ladies moving in our best society speak

AN ENGLISH giEW or 1T

The London Economist of June Is has an
elaborate editorial on "The American Social
Z" lists" which is largely based upon the argti-
ment recently presented Ill The TRIBUNE ny
the Rev. Dir. Oerter. The Economist says:
THE Egw-YoRK TRIBUNE of LIST jane has devoted
nearly page it, valuable space TO paper read by
Pastor Oerier, OF the Reformed C6urch' 10
synod OF that body. and 1t Is quite evident that
this church. at least, regards the movement with
serious alarm Mr.. Oerter writes with singular
moderation aud appears 10 mdOrsc one main grievance
Of the Socialists the inadequate paid by capita-
lists TO workmen but lac drms that the party Is large
that It mcnuces all order and that ITS ideas are OF the
most arreaching, and. indeed, abOn nabe character
After a review of Mr.. 0erter's paper, and
quotation of some of the evidence presented
by him, The Economist says:
We do not Mt ali think that Socialism described by
its own leaders is likely to attract majority Of tho
American people, or even a minority strong
enough TO raise q rebellion against society. Too
large a majority OF Americans are religious
are property-owncrs and possessed by the worship
of the customary and tho accepted, for any dread oil
that kind But we do see some danger OF the
uprising In ev ~ great American city Of formidable
sect penetrated with a creed which make It's members
hostile to existing society, and willing to appeal t. IN
surrectIun whenever instruction seems to AFFORD
chance Of success. And serious danger iu-
deed that such creed may spread in the
Southern States full "a they OF unedue1ted
white men who labor under oppressive conditions
for very poor returns and OF negroes not satisfied WITH
their position, very ignorant and very likely to be per
suaded by white teachers who bring them uOpian doc
tr1nes which serve as n substitute FOR q creed.
Tho Economist makes q suggestion which
does not seem justified by any expert
ence in this country. The cOlOred hborers
of the South have not as yet manifested
any leaning toward Socialistic notions,
nor have those tendencies shown great
strength among Southern whites. The
latter are too much scattered, the former too
easy and careless by nature, and both we
think, TOO little accustomed TO thcoriZng
about their condition or its causes. Socialism
takes deep root in the crowded cities, and in
the manufacturing and mining regions
where workmen of certain classes are
brought together constantly and are readily
organized for hostility to employers or capt.
talists. In such localities the dangerous ele-
merit will make earliest and greatest display
of force, and it will probably meet such re-
buke as to check its growth elsewhere, long
before it has had time to gain much force
among the agricultural laborers OF the South
