MISTAKES CAUSED BY BEER
Interesting Experiments Conducted In
Vienna to Determine Reaction
Time In Brain.

A series Of interesting experiments
was conducted by Exner Of Vienna to
determine the reaction time OF the
brain with and without alcohol. and It
was found that no ones intellect was
at Its best even under moderate doses
OF this drug. The experiment was con.
Quoted as follows: The subject was
placed at telegraphic table with fin.
ger on the key and at the fash Of
Tight was required to press the key.
1t was proved that the reaction time
Of imbibers was heightened over that
of the abstainers even when small
quantities Of alcohol were taken. A
number OF complicated experiments
were made Oh reaction time involving
color signals. A telegraph key was
placed on the right and left OF the
subject and signalized by alternating
flashes OF red and white light. 1t was
proven that more mistakes were made
after the ingestion Of one glass OF beer
than before 1t was taken.

ALCOHOL HURTS THE MEMORY
Karl Vost, Distinguished German
Naturalist, Gives Result Of Inter

To the Medical Annual" for 1912
we are indebted for the following:
Karl Vogt. the distinguished German
naturalist, found that alcohol had q
deIeterious effect on the memory.
After taking about one ounce Of al.
cohol after breakfast, he found that
he required a longer time to learn
off by heart portion OF Greek verse.
II the alcohol was taken on an empty
stomach this action was much more
marked. and was seen with a smaller
dose. On revising his work some
months later. he found that the lines
learned under the influence OF alcohol
were more !mperfectly remembered
than those learned on the days when
no alcohol was used"
