EFFECTS OF COFFEE
An Excellent Medicine In IK Mee nj a

Coffee owes its stimulating and re-
freshing qualities to coflelne sa th
Boston Journal of Commerce It also
contains gum and sugar fat acd
casein and wood fiber Like tea it
powerfully increase tho respiration
but unlike it docs notaff t its depth
By its uso the rate of tho pclso la in
creased and the action of tho skin di-
minished It lessens tho amount of
blood sent to tho organs of tho body
distends the veins nnd contracts thai
apillarles thus preventing tha wastw
st tissue It is a mental stimulus of a
high order nnd ono that is liable to >
great abuse
Carried to excess it produces ab
normal wakefulness Indigestion acid
ly heartburn irritability of temper
trembling irregular pulse a kind of
ptoxieation ending in delirium and
great injury to tho spinal functions
Unfortunately there aro many coffco
upplers who depend upon It m a
Irunkard upon his dram
On tho other handcoffoo Is of sovcr
iign efficacy In tiding over the norvous
tystem in emergencies
Coffeo is also In its place an excel-
lent medicine In typhoid fevor Ite
action is frequently prompt and da
isive It is indicated in the early
itages before local complications arise
Coffee dispels stupor and lethargy
s an antidute for many kinds of pois

na whoopingcough cholera infantum
ind Asiatic cholera
It Is also excellent as a prev entiro
igainst infectious oreptdemio disease
In districts rifo withmalaria and fever
