Alcohol and Tuberculosis.


DR.. s. A. Knopf, the eminent New
York physician who has given a great
deal OF attention to the subject of
tuberculosis, took occasion not long
since in a scientific paper to condemn
the popular notion that alcohol is a
remedy for consumption. He says:
There is an idea that alcohol is a
remedy or even a specific remedy for
consumption. There has never been
greater mistake made. Alcohol has
never cured and never will cure
tuberculosis. 1t will either prevent or
retard recovery. 1t is like a two
edged weapon; on one side it poi
sons the system, and on the other side
it ruins the stomach and thus prevents
this organ from properly digesting the
necessary food. Truly pathetic are
the results of this erroneous doctrine
in the families of the poor, where, in
stead of procuring good nourshment
for the invalid, liquor has been bought
in far too large quantities, so that
often there was not enough money left
for food for the sufferer nor for the
other members of the family"
