The Tendency of Alcohol.
At the recent Intercolonial Medical
Congress at Dunedin, Nesv Zealand, a
paper on "Alcohol" was reed by Dr.
Chapple, of Wellington. The author
proved the falseness of the popular belief
that alcohol increased the body heat, that
it added strength and endurance to the
muscles, that it controlled hemorrhage,
that it was a disinfectant and protected
from infection. He summarized his con-
clusions as follows ;.--"1. Alcohol is a
poisonous drug, whose special action in
the body is a brain cell paralysant, de.
stroying those cells in the inverse order
of their development. 2. Alcohol dis-
turbs the circulation, leading to the loss
of body temperature, and an aecumnla-
tion of waste products in the blood, no-
oompanied by great depreseian and nue.
oiler weakness. 3. Alcohol tends to
produce in all, proportionate to the
quantity taken, cirrhotio diseases of all
the tissues and organs of the body.
4. Alcohol tends to produce an irresist.
able craving for itself. 5. Alcohol pre-
disposes to all infectious and many or-
ganic. diseases. 0. Alcohol diminishes
the chances of recovery in those attacked
with any disease other than those result-
ing from its use. 7. Alcohol increases
the sick rate and shortens life. 8. A1.
oobol disposes of consumption and all
tubercular diseases. 0. Aloohol inoreas.
es lunacy and crime. 10. Alcohol is
absolutely unnecessary tohealth. 11. A1-
oohoi promotes hemorrhage, and does
not check it, 12. Alcohol adds no mu90a-
lar strength to the body—at most in en -
°mirages the expenditure of its force in
the shortest poseible time. If those were
the true facts about alcohol taken as a
beverage in health, they were, as medical
men, individually and collectively, in
duty and in the honor bound to make
them known to the public, over whose
health they pretend to preside."

true Christian way to prepare a turkey
is to fill him with internal improve-
ments in the shape of a rich compost
compound of bread, eggs, thyme, pepper,
Balt, a little lemon -peel, and a very little
butter. Then roast him and serve him
up with a gravy made of his giblets,
seasoned and thickened with a spoonful
or two of flour. If there is anything
better than a sliver out from the tender
breast of the creature, or his "second
