WHY MEN BECOME DRUNK.
Philosophy of Inebriety Considered
by Learned Writer.

New York Evening Post: A paper
| just published by Sir Lauder Brunton
and Doctor Zunnicliffe upon Certain
Apparently Injurious Constituents OF
Potable Spirits goes a long way to-
ward explaining the reason for the va
rious physiological symptoms arising
from overindulgence in alcoholic liz
uors, particularly of whisky. Their re-
searches show that while intoXication
is undoubtedly caused by the ethyl al
cohol in the liquor. the actual way in
which inebriates get drunk, or get so
Der after being drunk, depends on the
quality of the liquor partaken of, and
that this quality is positively an i'm
purity called "furfural," which the
whisky contains. The source of furfural
in the manufacture OF whisky is a class
of substance known MS pentosans;
these are derived from the cellulose of
the grain husks. and under the intlu-
ence of that, in the presence of acids,
are. in the wash-still, converted into
| furfural.
This furfural in the body tends to
pass into its corresponding acid, thus
| diminishing the alkalinity of the

deposits in the joint The physiological
action of pure furfural on animals and
man was studied and led to interesting
! results. 1t gives rise. ii appears, to
| paralysis of the voluntary muscles and
to clonic and tonic commissions.
The odd point, however about these
symptoms is their transient nature;
Immediately after the injection of the
drug the animal would fall completely
paralyZcd commissions would ensue
ana the animal would then become
rapidly normal. The human subjects
who were brave enough to take this
active poison in the same dose suffered
from throbbing headaches, which last
ed for a day The result leads 20 the
most interesting point of the research
II will probably be generally admitted
that the Commouest results of too free
rotations on the human subject is a
bad, thruhbuE headache and this head
ache appears TO be directly caused by
the turfural impurity of the liquor.
The reason that old whisky Is less liza
