OVER THE COFFEE CUPS

Coffee from a Medical Standpoint
as an Aid to the Sick or

BY g. F. ~BLANKE.

There was time wher there was
difference OF. opinion amongst the med
ical profession as to the aid of coffee to
the sick or convalescent. In fact there
was a doubt expressed as to whether
coffee was a wholesome beverage to the
we'll or: sick, but it is now generally
agreed by the medical profession that
in many cases there is nothing better
as diet for the convalescent, and in
cup Of good coffee made by the drip
process. -s- ~ =. g. ~ s--
Boiling coffee brings out the tannin.
The drip process extracts all the. viz
tues in coffee, but none of its injurious
properties. When one considers the
.benefcial properties of coffee it is
strange that there should ever have ex-
listed any enemy Of coffee amongst the
medical fraternity. Had they. investi-
critics Of coffee they would have discov-
cred long ago that there is much. differ
ence between cup Of boiled coffee and
cup Of drip coffee. Boiling coffee
extracts the tannin, and this is what
may prove Injurious to the sick or even
one in perfect health. The dyspeptic
who is still under the impression that
coffee is injurious has never tried cup
of properly prepared drip coffee, made
from a good quality of coffee.
It has long been an admitted fact
that one Of the. greatest antidotes to
chills and fever is good cup OF coffee

fever that was entirely cured by drink.

day issued the following proclamation:
!: . Information of an official character

been compelled to abandon their homes
and great suffering has been and is
being endured. The people Of the flood
ed district are now in thoroly desti-
tute condition, and from present i'ndica-
river gets back to it's normal condition,
and when they are enabled to return to
their homes the flooded district will be
barren waste, incapable Of producing
anything to sustain the people OF that
vicinity. The people thus afflicted. are
in need Of food, of clothing, of shelter,
and in fact everything that makes ,ex-
istence possible. This disaster must
appeal to the heart Of generous impulse,
