Alcohol is Not Medicine.

Is alcohol a medicine? In this
question we have a more difficult,
problem, for some have asserted that
1t is impossible to practice medicine
without it, while extremists on the
never be used. Let us look at the
matter in its true light: Belladona,
nux vomica. quinine and calomel are
drugs which could not be dispensed
with, and it is possibly true that we
could not find a substitute for alco-
hol, although at the present time
some drugs are being prepared with
out it. What is the position 1t should
occupy in medicine? Should 1t be
used for it's stimulating effects, and
In large quantities? Has 1t any use
except as a stimulant? Close inves-
tigation and extensive experience
have demonstrated that, constantly
used for its stimulating effects. it Is
positively injurious: and why? Every
drug has a primary and secondary
action, and the secondary is just b
opposite Of the primary: hence, II we
use a substance which is very stimu-
lating, it will be followed by a Sec
ondary effect, which is n OF depres-
sion. Alcohol has these effects. Is
there any field for alcohol except as
3 stimulant? This question we may
answer in the affirmative, and In do
ing so we place alcohol in its proper
position. It's use SHOULD be confined
to the preparation Of drugs and The
preservation of perishable articles.
It was used largely in pneumonia,
typhoid fever and surgical shock. But
what are its effects? In pneumonia
It simply whips the heart which is ri.
ready deteriorated by overwork. In
surgical shock it increases to greater
activity a heart which has already
lost a portion of its nervous control.
Actual experiments and experiences
have demonstrated beyond a doubt
that it's use in disease is productive
Of more harm than good. In regard
% it's use in surgical shock, Professor
r. C.. Wood, Of the University OF
Pennsylvania, said, in 1884: when
[ was a student in the hospitaf we
used to have cases Of shock IN abun.
dance, and we would pour alcohol
into the patients, and wonder why we
got no more effect. It seemed like
pouring water into a rat hole. Alco-
hol is of no value whatever IN shock;
nay, I am perfectly sure that IT. only
puts one more nail in the coffin OF
the patient. If you want your pa
tient to come out OF shock'you will be
very careful in giving alcohol"
This war against alcohol has not
ell been inaugurated in the twentieth
century, for it started in the seven.
teenth century, and at different pc.
RODS since then scientific mea nave
taken a stand against it. Early in
the eighteenth century DR.. BedoWs
pointed out the fact that it was in.
furious to health. Did space permit
we could add testimony upon testi-
mony to the same effect. We believe
we have shown that alcohol 3s a food
is a poor one, because Of its deleter.
ious effects. We have shown that 1t
Is a poison in everysense of the word,
and while it may have a use in medi.
cine, such use is limited and. much
less than was formerly supposed.-H.

Mrs. Wright, and shook hands silent
ly with her and Lena. He was un-
usually awkward that morning, and
looked very large and out OF place in
the dainty, womanly room. He
stroked his chin with his strong
brown hand almost nervously.
Il am glad" he said at length. Il
am glad!"
Then he looked round the room
rather helplessly.. The chairs were
r%idiculously small and frail compared
to his huge frame, and he made no
attempt to sit down.
II have just bought a very good
saddle" he said, suddenly, and with
out any sequence of thought. The
man is altering it for me. l suppose
l can countermand it now
He smiled a little, and the ladies
smiled sympathetically. The two
elder women took an ardent interest
in that saddle just as they would
have taken an interest in digestive
bread or the death Of Alcibiades, If
Charlie had brought the subject I'M
der their notice.
Then they talked Of Vienna and
the journey there, praising the gifted
Mr.. Bradshaw, and abusing the Ger
man railways, until Charles Mistley
took his temporary leave.
He wandered down Seymour street
in an absent-minded manner. Pres
emily he came upon a little black-and-
tan terrier sitting upon a doorstep,
with its q~uiyering spine pressed
against the immovable door. He
stopped before it, and the dog raised
one paw as if to beg him to ring the
bell, setting back its head, and look
ing up at him with pretty canine
c~oquetry. Without thinking much
of what he was doing, the sailor
raised his hand and rang the bell;
then he strobe on.
Il am glad" he murmured. Yes,
II am glad! BY George!" he ex-
