Coffee and Wine

Brillat-Savarin long ago stated that
the great Frenchmen Button and Vol
taire drank enormous quantities of
coffee, to their deadly hurt; and he
declared that a person might take two
bottles of wine Il day without injury
during a long life, but that by a similar
Indulgence in coffee he would become
an Idiot or die Of consumption. The
Lnordinate use of tea and coffee is now
well-known, and is admitted. even by
temperance physicians, to be more dan
gerous than that Of alcohol. DR.. Al
