The quinine firms in Philadelphia
made large fortunes by the old tax On
the drug. When their monopoly was
partly broken by the free quinine bill OF
1879. they threatened 10 shut up their
factories. They did not do so.
and although quinine was reduced from
So 40 to So 40 an ounce by foreign
competition. they continued their bust
ness, apparently with profit. In spite
oi the millions they have made out of
their monopoly in The past, these firms
now demand restoration OF the tax on
fuinine. The only reason advanced is
that the tax makes them richer, They
do not add that it makes poorer all
citizens who are suffering with tsver
and ague.

DR.. Book, OF Leipsic, is responsible
for the following note on the relation
between morals and what people eat and
drink; The nervousness and peevish-
ness Of our times are chiefly attributed
to tea and coffee; the digestive organs
of confirmed cofiee-drinkers are in q
state of chronic arrangement which re-
acts upon the brain, producing fretful
and lachrymoSe moods Fine ladies adj
dicted to strong coffee have a character
istic temper, which | might describe as
mania for acting the prosecuted saint
Chocolate is neutral in It's psyehical eff
fects, and is really the most harmless of
our fashionable drinks The snappish,
petulant humor OF the Chinese is GER
tainly to be ascnbed TO their immoder-
ate fondness for tea. Beer brutali2es,
wine impressions, whisky infurates, but
eventually humans, Alcoholic drinks
combined with flesh and fat diet sub
jugate the moral man, unless their indu-
ence be counteracted by violent exer-
else"

eighteen, and now divide them your
selves" The consequence was, each
brother got from one-eighth to one-hali
Of q camel more than he was entitled to,
