BHIaHr's DISEASE AND Ice WATER "A Bal
timore druggist OF experience ana ample OPP
portunity for observation, has advanced the
idea that Brght's disease is attributable to the
immoderate use OF ice water and cold drinks.
He cites the fact that the people of this coun-
try use 80 per cent. more ice in their drinks
than the people OF any other country, Green
landers not excepted We have 70 pen cent.
moro OF Brght's disease. He cites that tue
wine drinking countries OF Europe are COM
parstivev free from the malady. Travellers
have observed and commented upon the preju =
dice which seems to exist against ice water and
iced drinks In all countries outside OF the Uni
ted States. The Englshman and the German
fairly shun ice, though placed in easy reach of
boundless quantities OF it. and the Frenchman
who sips the light wines would as soon think of
taking an emetic as of chilling his stomach
with an iced draft. Our drug friend points to
the fact that Bright's disease has kept pace in
this country with the increased consumption OF
Ice, and claims that before ice became com
mon household necessity the malady was
scarcely known among physicians. There m ay
be something in th. theory.-Baltimore Ga
