Action Of Coffee and Sugar on the
Stomach.

In a paper presented 10 the SOcieto
lie Biologie M. Leven states that coffee,

Grating the digestive process of the
stomach. rather tends To impede this.
When thirty grammes of coffee. diluted
in one hundred and fifty of water. is
hours and a half afterward. the stom-
ach is found pale, its mucous surface
being anrm.c, and the vessels Of its
external membrane contracted. The
whole organ exhibits n marked appear
ancc of an rmia. Coffee thus deter
mining IN rmia of the mucous men,
brane. preventing rather than favOring
vascular congestion, and OPP Osing rath-
er than facilitating the secretion of gas
trio juice, how comes it that the sense
Of comfort is procured for so many peo-

after a meal? A repast. in fact. pro-

tiers. as shown bv experiments with
casein. Coffee and tea, when taken in
excess, are a frequent cause of dyspep-
STA, for the anrmic condition of the mu-
cous membrane being periodically re-
newed. a permanent state of congestion
is ut last produced, which constitutes
dyspepsia. Sugar, which with many
doctors has a bad reputation, is m ex-
cellent aliment which assists digestion,
and should not be prescribed in dys-
pepsia- BY experiment, digestion Of
meat is found to take place much more
completely when sugar is added. COT

good effect by relieving the torpor after
meals. Its injurious action on diges-

sugar to coffee is not only a pleasant
practice, but one contributing to diges-

The Restorative Power In Nature.

Equally worthy of admiration, aud
all but equally complex, is the process
by which nature repairs a fractured
limb. especially when the injury is such
that the broken ends OF the bones can
not be brought exactly into their prop
er positions. 1t is remarkable, too.
how she adapts her process to the diff
ferent habits of her patients. In the
case of a simple fracture. # the parts
that have been d%isjointed are set close
together in their normal line. if it be
theJeg of a dog, for example, there is
first q hard sheath called q "callus."
formed round the fracture, and this
"callus' permits a restricted use of
the injured limb, even before the two
parts have grown together. 1t is, how
ever. only n temporary provision, ne
ceSsitated By the natural restlesSness of
the lower animals. After the fracture
has completely healed the "callus"
gradually disappears. A human case
is treated differently. Here, unless it
be a broken rib (Which requires the
provision in consequence of an ihces-
SAINT motion in respiratory, the healing
takes place ordinarily without the form,
alton of any outer "callus." Some
times the broken ends cannot be, or, at
all events, are not, brought into their
proper relative positions. Is il possible.
IT NAV be asked, that nature can pro-
vide the means for meeting such an
emergency when, that is to say, the
two portions of bones to be joined are
all awrv, and sometimes quite new-in
fact. a kind of bridge, and q bridge not
only serving the purpose of a solid
connection between opposite banks. but
like the bridges which carry the appli-
ances of modern civilization, connect
ing the nerves which answer to the
telegraph wires and the veins and arte-
ries corresponding to our water and
other condui's-has to be constructed?
Nature engineering is equal even to
task. Omitting anatomical de.
tails. we may simply say that she con-
q new and extraordinary piece
of bone. which serves to unite the
broken ends. the jagged and sharp pro-
of which she carefully rounds
of. But we must now take leave of
the subject and commend it to the
consideration of the reader.
who will recognize in all this the mar.
velous wisdom of our great Creator.
