The Chicago papers tell Of a recent
experience where Judge lands, the
noted United States j%urist, settled a
question Of whether beer was beer by
ordering corks pulled, and passing out
some Of the fluid to newspaper report
ers and others for expert testimony.
The papers state that this is probably
the only case where a judge had corks
pulled in court. This is a mistake

ago in trying a blind pig case in one

and witnesses squabbling whether
bottles contained beer or something
else. whereat the nudge ordered a bot
tie presented to the court and taking
a cork screw pulled the cork. and
while he only smelled the bottle, he
settled the controversy that lawyers
and witnesses could not settle and
pronounced the beer to be beer. The

ATTITUDE OF MEDICAL MEN
Use Of Alcohol for Medicinal Purposes
Rapidly DimInishlng-Does Not
Stimulate Heart.

DR.. Richard c. Cabot contributes the
following explanation as to the pres
ent day attitude Of physicians towards
alcohol,
THE use Of alcohol as a medicine
Is steadily and rapidly diminishing.
II Is true that the use Of all drugs
has also fallen off considerably, but
this change Is more striking as re-
CARDS alcohol There are three main
purposes for which alcohol has been
used as medicine;
(D As quick stimuant-for faint
ing exhaustion, and extreme cold
This service doctors now generally
agree Is better performed by hot cof'
fee, hot tea or hot soup. The heat
Is the main thing
(2) AS a support to the heart In
heart disease and in fevers, Here the
use Of alcohol still continues, but 1t Is
constantly and steadily diminishing,
because research has shown that It
does not stimulate a bad or good heart
action, as was formerly supposed
Some physicians believe that alcohol
helps the patient In his fight against
the germs, but the weight Of opinion
Is against this, by most physicians
alcohol Is still occasionally used In
feyers and in diabetes for a purpose
still TO be mentioned
(3) As a food Though alcohol is
undoubtedly a poison to the nervous
system this harmful effect Is neutral
wed In some cases Of illness by the
fact that It does supply fuel and en-
orgy to the body When other foods
are rejected (wholly or in parU by
the stomach or when, as In diabetes,
certain common foods cease to bene'
fit the body, alcohol may be valuable,
but this Is comparatively rare"
In a recent article In the Boston
Medical and Surgical Journal Dr. Ca.
bot contributed somo interesting fg-
ures showing the diminished use Of
alcohol in the Massachusetts, General
hospital, The figures, showing also
diminished use Of other drugs as well,
have been arranged in both tabular
and chart form and used as m ex.
hibit at the Boston 1915" exposi.
tion,
In 1898 the hospital expended q
total for alcohol drinks Of $2,322 or
iG cents per patient These figures
we're increased the following year to
$4,000, or 81 cents per patient Since
that time there has been q steady dc.
crease, and in 1907 the total cost Of
alcoholic stImulantg used was but
1913, or 10 cents per patient Dur.
ing the same period the cost Of other
medicines administered also de.
creased, not because Of ossonod
prices for drugs, but because fowor
medicines Of any sort are now admin
