PETROLEUM AND DRUNKENNESS.
Heavy Doses After a Spree Said to Cure
All Its Bad Effects.

Lancet.1
The number of remedies-not to say nos
trums-which have from time to time been
vaunted as specifics for alcoholism is legion,
some of the latest being red cinchona,
strychnine, ichthyol, phosphorus, hydrobro-
mate of hyoscine, and hydras-
tis The most recently suggested
remedy is petroleum, or orparofine oil, to which
the attention of the st Petersburg medical
authorities was called by an accident. 1t
appears that a laboring man, who had been
drinking heavily for four days and nights,
entered in complete state of intoxication in
grocer's shop, without being conscious of
where he was or what he was doing
Unnoticed by the shopkeeper, he stag
gered up to an open cask of petroleum and
began drinking from it. With difficulty he
was dragged away from the cask, and, see
ing the large quantity of petroleum he had
imbibed, it was expected he would fall down
sehseless and be seriously i'll. Instead of
this, however, it is related that the petro--
leum had cured him of all the i'll effects of
overdrinking, the nausea, unsteadiness of
gait, and headache disappearing as if by
magic In fact, it is stated he left the shop
sober and quite another man as compared
with what he was before he took the draught
of petroleum!

These two qualities are, indeed, very fire.
quently combined, and in all diseases That
depend on malnutr1t1on the remedies OF this
class are now very generally used where
formerly reliance was placed on medicines
that but relieved the more obvious symp-
toms.
There is q familiar example of this in the
popular use of the Malt Extract with which
the name of Johann Hof is associated. The
nutritive value of this admirable prepara-
tion has long been recognized in all en-
feebled cOnditionS-in cOnvaleSence, during
nursing and other periods of exhaustion, in
fnl observation, in the laboratory as well as
in actual practice, has shown that the Malt
Extract has an actual nutritive value not
possessed by alcoholic or matted liquors,
and also most important influence in facil-
itating the digestion of ordinary food. Thus
its systematic use is followed by the relief
OF indigestion, the natural building up Of
the tissues and rapid Improvement of the
general condition.
And this accounts for the great value Of
Johann Hoffs Malt Extract in phthisis, in
bronchitis and other pulmonary complaints,
always associated with imperfect assimila-
ton. Its action in these cases. however, is
not confined to its tonic or nutritive effect.
1t belongs also to the class of eXpectorants,
and in Germany it has almost driven out Of
use the nauSeating cough mixtureS-of squill,
ipecac and opium-which, long continued,
offend the delicate stomach and impair di-
gestion- For this purpose, in all chronic
coughs, including those of childhood, it iS
given at night in a hot, spiced drink, with
the most gratifying results-reheving the
cough, promoting sleep and improving the
general condition.
JOHANN HoFF AND HIS MEDALS.
Johann Hoff has been manufacturing the
Malt Extract since 1s47, and in Berlin since
1860. 1t has won him honors at home and
carried his name all over the world. The

Perfect Development Depends
Upon Perfect Nutrition.
THE INCREASING USE OF FNUTRITIVES

Among the most important characteristics
of modern scientific medicine is the extent
to which restorative and nutritive sub
stances have replaced the old-fashioned
drugs, not merely as general tonies, but as
actual remedies. Whether this is the result
of the prevailing conditions of life, under
which the larger number of cases that come
to physicians notice are the result of an
exhausted or depressed vitality, or because
of the widening belief that the primary
function OF medicine is to restore those
normal physiological conditions whose dis
turbance constitutes disease, it is fact not
only that the remedies most constantly pre-
scribed are those belonging to the class Of
tonics, but that among these what may be
described as food-tonics gain every year q
more important place.

Mining is reckoned as Chile's most i'm
portant industry, and agriculture next.
Among the articles of export, wheat and
-four figure prominently; also barley, pota-
toes, corn, wool, hides, dried and salted
beef, honey, bees-wax, beans, hay, butter
and cheese. Most of these, however, go no
farther than Bolivia and Peru, the countries
Immediately to the northward. Chilean
wines are also highly esteemed, and have
not only very large consumption at home,
but millions ofgallons are annually exported.
In South America, as in Europe, every
body drinks wine, and water on the dinner
table would be considered such mark of
barbarism that even TERRA del Fuegoan
would not indulge in it if he became suffi-
ciently civilized to own table. Yet there
is little drunkenness here, and what there is
is mostly among foreigners who have learned
whisky -guzzling at home, and los pobres
who are obliged to confine themselves to
chicha. The latter beverage in Chile is not
all like the corn-chicha of the northern
countries, this being sort of raw cider dis
titled from the grape.

The Ferocious Endeavor of a Jockey.
Not a few, however, are too lazy to en-
dure such fatigue, and resort by preference,
wherever it is practicable, to Turkish baths.
These baths are frequently visited by
jockeys, who remain in them continually
from to IA hours, and in that time get rid
of from to II pounds of their weight. It
is affirmed that one well-known jockey en-
dured two days and nights of the hot room
in Turkish bath in New York without in
all that while going farther from it than the
anteroom where the scales stood.
He drank water copiously to force per-
spiration, at first; then from time to time
had himself vigorously scrubbed with hot
water to fully open the pores; sat for hours
on a stool in the very hottest chamber,
where few venture for more than a minute
at time; and could actually be seen grow
ing thinner and more "peaked" under his
most feroeious endeayor to reach his mimi
num- Finally, when the attendants were
thoroughly alarmed by his having fallen in
a faint through sheer weakness, he decided
that he had got down to the desired point,
sent for carriage and went away. He had
reduced his weight 25 pounds from what it
was when he entered upon the hideous ex-
perience. And all his suffering was in vain.
When he reached the course where he was
to ride the race for which he made such
cruel preparation, he was too weak to sit on
the horse. CELIA LOGAN.

RE.GREEN1NG OF VEGETABLES.

Newcastle, Eng, Chronicle.l
1t may be superhuous task to paint the
lily or to gild refined gold, but the re-green-

tions of gigantic industry, which has its
headquarters in France, gives employment
to 20, 900 persons, and represents a business
of 40, 900 900 francs Nine-tenths at least of
the green preserved vegetables sold in
France or abroad are said to be re-greened
with sulphate of copper to give them the
appearance of freshness.
According to the British Medical Journal
the Glasgow Health Committee have de-

peas at Christmas such as it gets from the

manufacturer makes them to suit his whim.
The consequence is that it eats stale peas

round" A curious fact is said to be that
the largest sale. of preserved peas takes
place in that period of the year when fresh
peas are in season.

this preparation, and has been appointed
Purveyor to the Courts of Austria, Prussia,
England and of other European sovereign
ties. The extent of the use of the Malt Ex-
tract IN the United States may be inferred
from the fact that the importations through
Eisner & Mendelson, the agents here, amount
to half a million of bottles annually. 1t is
standard preparation in all the leading hos
pitfalls of the country.
The popularity of Johann Hoff's malt
preparations is especially great in Germany.
The old Kaiser, who retained such wonder
full vitality in advanced age, was one OF their
most enthusiastic patrons, and two others
are his famous associates, the VeneraoIe
General Won Moltke, now in his n1nty-nrse
year, and the still vigorous Prince Won Bis
mark. The present Empress, too, Is De-
lever in the Malt Extract, and her blooming
health is certificate to its virtues. IN Eng
land, also the Malt Extract is high in favor
at Court, and it is largely employed In tnas
country, as on the continent, by al tne lead
ing physicians.
The Malt Extract has more than all the nu-
tritive value of ale or beer without It's alco-
holic effects, and by it's tonic influence upon
corrective of the various forms of dyspepsia
so prevalent in modern life, while at the
same time it directly aids in building up the
system. 1t is, in fact, true 1000 tonic, and
thus deserves to be ranked among the most
important additions to the armament Of
modern restorative medicines.
Naturally such great success has stfmu-
lated mutations Some Of these are even
sold as "Hoff's Extract, showing an evident
intention to deceive, that is itself sufficient
to condemn the article so named Such inn
itations of standard preparations are al
ways to be avoided. The genuine Johann
Hoffis Malt Extract, it may be remarked here,
ALWAYS has the signatures of Johann Hofr
and of Moritz Eisner, sole agent, on the neck
of the bottle, and purchasers must take care
not to be imposed upon by INSCRIPTIONS
dealers who try to palm of the inferior inn
itation for the sake of a larger profit which
