ADVICE FOE ALL WHO TAKE A DEOP
Dr. Robert Farquharson has an interest
ing plea for moderate drinking in Black
trood. The main points are given herewith:
"We have the highest respect for the advo
cates of temperance reform, and it they are
sometimes just a shade supersaturated with
the consciousness of superior virtue, they
lire generally good people, and wish others
to be the same. But indications are in the
air that they may occasionally push their
zeal beyond the bounds of discretion, and
bring about a reactive tendency which may
damage the cause It must have taken a
pood deal ot provocation to make an ad
vanced and popular writer of the day pen
these words: "A rabid temperance advo
cate, for the same reason, is often the poor
est of creatures, flourishing on a single vir
tue, and quite oblivious that his temperance
is making a worse man of him, and not a
better " The force of this condemnation by
Prof. Drummond, in "The" Changed Life,"
depends on the word "rabid," and we
gladly admit that those who have joined a
crusade aeainst one of the worst encmiesof
the humau race are usually penetrated with
cnthnsiasm for the success of their mission,
and do their work with all due charity and
Christian humility. And when we consider
what the evils are which they are trying to
overcome how excels in strong drink fills
our prisons and lunatic asylums and hospi
tals and workhouses, and sweeps down body
and mind into one dark abyss of ruin we
can hardlv blame them for trying to snap
this devil's chain of tascinatin; indulgence,
even at the expense of some irritation and
unpopularity. '
We should be sorry to say a word that
could chill the enthusiasm ot the apostles
ot total abstinence, or lessen the efiect
which their words prod-ice; but at the same
time we arc bound to look at the other side
of the shield, and argue in favor of our own
views; and believine, as we do, that a good
case can be made out for those who "take a
little nine for their stomachs sake," we
shall invite them to sit down at table with
us, and nave a quiet symposium over one or
to of your columns. But let us first
make this frank admission to our teetotal
friends.
Tonng Tolk Better TTlthout Alcohol.
As an eminent phvsician remarked, when
a stump orator was describing the condition
ol two geraniums, one ot which was
watered in the ordinary way, and adver
tised its virtuous principles bv an exuber
ant freshness of blossom and leaf, while the
second became an involuntary toper, and
had been dosed with alcohol into premature
decay, "Ye", if I were a geranium I should
prefer water. But then 1 am not a gera
nium." The nearer we can approach to the
healthy existence of a plant, or a wild ani
mal in its prime, the more does the neces
sity for drink diminish away to a vanishing
point. Children and voung people up to
manhood, under normal constitutional con
ditions, are tar better without anv; and the
argument in favor ot its habitual use rests
on the specialties of the highly strung and
unnatural mode of lite whicn many of us
are obliged to lead. AVe must tae our
selves as we are, artificial products of an
artificial age, often depressed, and worried,
eating bad food badly cooked,breathing bad
air, and crushed down by money difficul
ties. It is at these times, when responsibili
ties are around us, and the troubles of the
world begin to close in over our heads, that
a cheering glas, in strict moderation and
at carefully selected times is of real use,
and can be defended both by physiology
and common sense.
Under what conditions, then,
should our prescription be carried out, and
how can we defend a practice which has
raised against it such a mass of plausible
reasoning and respectable sentiment?
Argument for Moderation.
In Jhe first place, we directly traverse the
arguments of our opponents against moder
ation, because they are founded on a total
misconception of the physiological action
of alcohol. Complex and antagonistic as
these often are, no Jekylls and Hydes were
e er more sharply contrasted than t o sets
of people placed at either end of the scale.
A moderate dose has some stimulant efiect,
and mav send the pulse- up by a lew beats,
and remove the faintness of fatigue. Gen
erally and more beneficially, however, it
soothes and rests, and brings consoling quiet
into the routine of life. But when the
quantity is increased, we all know too well
from observation, if not from experience,
what happens. The skin glows; confusing
idras flash through the brain, and try
to make themselves heard in thickened
and incoherent speech; the gait becomes
ataxic, and to staggering succeeds paralysis,
iini to excitemeut comatose sleep, which
gradually deepens into apoplexy and death.
What, then, are the limits of safety in the
use of a drug which can thus range from a
harmless stimulant up to a true narcotic
poison?
How are we to define moderation? What
is one man's meat may be another's poison,
and the quantity o" wine or spirit which
can reasonably be allowed to the first, may
amount to intemperance in the second. We
are generally told that two ounces of al
cohol or its equivalent should not
be exceeded under ordinary circum
stances; but even this may be too
much tor some people, and in a
general war we would advise every
one with sufficient self-restraint to regulate
his own proper quantity for himself. There
is no doubt that many apparent patterns of
moderation arc really the victims of excess
in a small wav, because they sometimes feel
depressed after meals, or rise in the morn
ing with a dry tongue, or a headache, or a
general sensation of "seediness," to use
their own phrase. Sometimes it happens
that these and other dyspeptic troubles so
invariably follow anything, in the wav of
stimulant that it has to be given up alto
gether; and this is just one of those things
which the suflerer, by reflection and obser
vation, and the process of reasoning by ex
clusion, must diagnose for himself
Mast Study the Action of'AIcohoL
Every one, sneaking generally, must also
choose the kind of liquor that suits him
best. Doctors can ot course instruct him
what to do wden he is ill, or con
valescent, or when they know the speciali
ties of his constitution; but in nine, cases
out ot ten the man himself understands the
outs and ins of his stomach, and can ar
range his scheme of solid and liquid diet to
conciliate his tyrant Thus we find that
whilst beer is the favorite beverage of
many, and is specially believed in'by the
workinsman, it makrs some of us heavy
and unfit for work, and wc shake our heads
fcadly when we see it on the table. Port
wine suits most old people, and weakly in
valids and convalescents, and withered chil
dren flourish under it; bet the gouty man
knows by the pricking of his toes that he is
safer out of the room when a bottle of it is
produced. Burgundy is the king of wines,
and feeds the waterv blood of the anemic
with red corpuscles, and stills the
craving of the neuralgic nerves for stimu
lation and support; but it seems to fill the
veins ot the 'plethoric almost to bursting,
and sends its joyous tingling right down to
the finger-tips. Champagne, which is in
valuable to the weak and sinking, and the
very pop of whose cork seems to give a
fresh start to conviviality, sometimes causes
sleepless nights, and at others makes the
hrart beat uncomfortably and irritates the
mucous membranes. The stronger alco
holic wines often cause heartburn and head
ache; and weak spirits and water, so much
recommended by the faculty, are occasion- 1

ally badly borne; and the fine ethers and
matured saccharine ingedients, which give
old wines so much of their charm, seem ne
cessary to communicate the full benefit of
stimulation to some varieties of consti
tution. Idiosyncrasy here play its
usually mysterious and unexpected part;
and as a man is said to be a fool or a physi
cian at 40, we may expect him to have made
up bis mind long before that how- much he
should drink, and what, in order to keep
up that equable balance of physiological
function which goes to make up sound
health.
Never Drink on an Empty Stomach.
But we may now give him some hints
how to drink. In the first plaie, lav this
down as a rule to which there is hardly any
exception, that alohol should only be
taken with food, and preferably, and if
possible exclusively, with the principal
meal of the day, and that it should be di
luted as far as palate and convenience will
allow. The reason of this is that the
destructive influence ot strong drink on the
tissues is purely physical, and the intimate
structure of some of our organs is
hardened and compressed, much in
the same way as the anatomical
shelves of our museums. But in order to
carry this out effectually, .notonly is, pro
longed immersion and soaking required, but
the fluid itseir must be strongly impreg
nated with spirit. It is worse than absurd
to compare a piece of dead tissue suspended
in pure alcohol with a corresponding bit of
our own living body; for not only are the
principles of vitality and 'nervous function
elements which the labeled jar does not.
contain, but the rapid torrent of the circu
lation whirls the blood swittly round from
artery to vein, and the soak and contact at
any given spot mnst be momentary and tran
sient. But, in addition to this, the actual
proportion of spirit to the total mats of the
blood must be trivial under ordinary con
ditions of moderation, and the blood as it
sweeps round on its ceaseless flow
deposits at various points of con
tact sundry constituent parts of the spirit
which it contains. Thus oxidation goes on
through the lungs and the skin; and the
liver and kidneys, in their turn, may take
part in converting alcohol into other things,
which account for its almost total disap
pearance, and which entitles it, as we shall
hereafter see, to rank as food. It therefore
requires no more explanation to prove that
we should do our drinking in a very sys
tematic way. Shun, as you would the evil
one, all rash nips and casual drinks; let no
sherries and brandies and sodas between
meals tempt you from your rule, but mix all
your liquor with food, which shields the
tissues from its contact, and aids its safe
dispersion through the circulation. Then
either take weak wines, or. if they must be
stronger, dilute copiously, and be careful
to correct the acidity of some of
the more highly alcoholized beverages
which interferes with salivary digestion
by the addition of any of the alkaline
waters in common use. We can thus en
sure that the tissues shall be bathed with a
solution of alcohol so weak and so little
continuous as to be perfectly harmless, and
give a scientific denial to the oft-repeated
assertion of temperance reformers of the
more "rabid" class, that moderation in its
physical effects is only one degree less hurt
lul than excess. But, in order to make as
surance doubly sure, it is a good plan to
have an occasional alcohol fast, and to give
it up altogether for a day or two from time
to time. In this way we can ensure that
the blood is periodically and thoroughly
cleared from an abnormal ingredient, which
is known to be very quickly removed by
oxidation and elimination, and the slightest
risk ot saturation and injury is thus most
effectually prevented.
Alcohol Strrncthenfnc for Old People.
But there may bt exceptions to this salu
tary rule of restricting our alcohol consumpt
tion to mealtimes. A man has been wet
through, or thoroughly chilled, and comes
home cold and shivering. A smart little
nip, taken at once, will whip up his heart,
relax the vessels of the skin.-take off the
spasm ot congestion, and send a warm glow
through him from end to end; and although
exact science tells us that this feeling of
heat is rather apparent than real, it is ac
tually felt, because the warm blood flashes
freely through the surface vessels, and then
returns to stoke up the internal organs, and
light a temporary fire which will probably
prevent the dangers from chilL Or again,
when a weak or over-tired man comes back
from his work, and sits down to dinner
without much restful pause, a lit
tle preliminary stimulant will restore
his lost nervous energy, and help him
to enjoy and digest his meat Thus we see
that in tropical climates like India sherry
and bitters and milk punch are usually
handed around before the first course, and
the custom is quite defensible. For heat is
lowering, work goes on in the early part of
the day, and when the dinner "table is
reached, the vital force is running down,
and a "square meal" is looked at with dis
gust. But when the petit verre has been
tossed off, the vessels of the stomach begin
to fill, the mouth moistens, gastric Juice is
secreted when the additional stimulus of
food arrives, and then "good digestion waits
on appetite." And finally, there can be
"no possible shadow of doubt" that weakly
and old people are often the better lor a
night-cap. A glass of whisky and water,
hot or cold, sets them to sleep, and
gives fuel to the flagging fires of
life; and in this way we firmly believe
that judicious stimulation directly predis
poses to longevity. All the most healthy
veterans whom we have known take some
wine or spirit: and Prof. Sir G. Hum
phrey's interesting record of centenarians
gives a decided majority to the drinkers
over the total abstainers.
Alcohol for Medical Purposes.
Taking now the various actions of alco
hol seriatim, popular attention is generally
first attracted to its stimulant propensities.
The beneficial influence which it exerts ill
disease is partly due to this; and every
medical man knows that, under certain
definite conditions of depression, or even of
fictitious excitement, it acts like a charm.
The heart steadies and strengthens, the drv
tongue gathers moisture, tfce dull, stupefied
look of fever clears away, delirium sub
sides, and the crisis is over. And in other
widely varying states of deviation
from health, its power is equally
obvious. The feebleness of convalescence,
the dreary dullness of dvspepsia, the acute
ness of neuralgic pain, all give way to this
patent charmer; and if habits ot self-indulgence
too often follow the relief thus
obtained, this is only because the drug has
been loosely used, and should be prescribed
with caution.
Dr. Mortimer Granville asserts that re
covery from acute illness was more sure and
rapid in the past drinking days than now.
This recalls an ancient controversy about
the change of type in disease, iu which
Christison and Bennett took part; and we
do not know that any materials exist fo"
settling the question, nor can a temperance
hospital do much nowadays to clear up our
doubts. In the old drenching times of Tod,
when patients used to get their bottle of
brandy in the 24 hours, a comparison of the
kind would have been of extreme value;
but the routine treatment of inflam
mation by alcohol is now
A Thine of the Past,
and, as a rule, we merely look out
for special symptoms and complication,
and meet them as they arise. But as a con
tribution to the discussion, let me quote
Brudenell Carter, who quotes Dr. Braun,
ot Moscow, who says that he bad 45 per cent
of bad cues after eye operations among
the peasants until he gave them wine or
brandy, uhen tbe percentage fell to C per
cent. In the sudden collapse of fainting or
snaWe-bite, or when anyone Is called on to
make a violent physical effort almost be
yond his powers, alcohol again shows its
power. Swiss guides well know the help
that a mouthful or two of white wine gives
them; and I remember an incident on the
Alps, where a timely stimulant prob
ably saved three lives. We were rashly
struggling up an ice slope without guides,
and the first man on the rope, an experi
enced mountaineer, yigorouslr cut steps.
while we shivered in our pieces, dodging
the falling chips, and trying to feel brave
'and happy. Suddenly the sonnd of the ax
stopped, and a voice fell 'clear and sharp
from aloft, "Brandy at once, or I can't go
onl" Luckily we had It, and a sip or two
set him right; but as he told ui afterwards,
so overpowering was the feeling of exhaus
tion that be could hardly have raised his
arm, or even remain much longer in hli
place, without the stimulant, which for
tunately was at hand. As w were at the
moment half-way np a perpendicular wall
nearly 200 feet high, with little bnt a nar
row ledge to protect . us from a frightful
preciplee below, I invite your readers to
picture for themselves what the conse
quences of an accident would hare been.
The Romans Indulged Regularly.
To Its stimulant action also belongs the
good which alcohol may do to the process
of digestion. Not only does "it quicken the
desire lor food, but in strict moderation it
increases the secretion of gastric juice, and
promotes those churning movements of the
stomach which are necessary for nutrition
and assimilation. The ancient Romans
found it necessary to qualify their compli
cated coena with deep draught of Faler
nian or other Vines; and it is difficult to see
how we of modern times could support the
eitrantic meals which luxurious custom pro
vides without an appropriate allowance of
stimulant. We were itruok by the remark
of a Coroner, who was certifying the cause
of death in an aged female pauper
some years ago. She had appar
entlv died from syncope, following
a debauch on Christmas fare; and
it seems that the allowance of beer pro
vided on these festive occasions had been
stopped. And. in commenting on the cir
cumstances of the cause, the Coroner
pointed out that a little stimulant would
have helped the stomach to do its work, and
that her usual ber would have prevented
her fronf being choked by her dinner. And
I have little doubt that lie was right
Biblical and Physiological Authority.
"Take a little wine for thy stomach's
sake," then, is a precept which unites
Biblical authority with sound physiology;
but we are now prepared to go a step
further, and show that alcohol has itself
every right to be called a food. We can
prove it in this wav. A certain amount of
alcohol enters the body, and hardly any, if
any, can be shown to leave it unchanged:
what, then, becomes of it? Science gives
the ''reply. Within the organism it is
nsed up, consumed, or oxidised, thereby
developing vital lorce and heat, ana inter
fering so far with the oxidation of other
substances as to lessen tissue-waste, and
make nourishment go further, so as to be
not only a food but a food-saving substance.
This is clear and definite enough and ad
mits of no denial, and it is confirmed by
common observation. We do not need a
professional diploma to remember cases,
more especially at the extremes of life,
where wine and spirit seemed to enable an
utterly insufficient dietary to keep people
alive. Consumptive boys in particular will
subsist on port wine long after the power of
digesting nourishment is practically sus
pended; and Dr. Wilks, in a most
interesting paper, says: "I must
now allude to the verv striking and re
markable effect of alcohol on wasted
children, the nearest approach to a proof
that alcohol is nutritive. It was many
years ago that I found alcohol in the form
of brandy had a very remarkable restorative
effeot in the case of atrophied children, and
I therefore introduced it as a medicine into
the pharmacopoeia of the Infirmary for
Children, Waterloo road." And, to quote
again from the same sagacious observer:
"Among some notes I have the case of a
man at 50 and long intemperate. He took
a pint of brandy a day, no meat, and very
Utile of anything else. A woman aged 64
had been intemperate for 30 years : (he took
a pint ot gin daily; she ate no food but an
occasional biscuit I think it is Anstle who
gives the. history of a man who for 20 years
took a bottle of gin daily, with piece of
bread the size of his finger, and he was thin,
but not emaciated."
Clearing Away the Mists.
If you have lost a friend, money, or your
character, if the black dog of depression
has got you by the throat, will not a cheer
ing cup give a peep at the silver lining of
the cloud, and clear away the mist that is
gathering round the hill tops, as Wilks puts
it? The great fact to remember , about
alcohol is its lowering the function of the
nervous system, by which it gives repose to
the body and a quietus to the mind, or, as
tome say, to the conscience. It is to pro
duce these effects that it is taken by the
multitude. "When I do recommend a little
wine or spirits daily, it is usually to quiet a
perturbed nervous system" (Wilks).
That, then, is the keystone of its action
it quiets, soothes, rests. We sometimes
meet teetotalers who would be much the
better for such a sedative. Now and then
they look hunted aad overdone, as though
consumed by a feverish activity, which
makes them take too much out of their
nervous systems, and age rapidly. A glass
of wine would-have a restraining or "inhibi
tory influence, and would let them do
sounder Because less spasmodic work. The
want of a little stimulant at meal-times often
makes them gross and unwholesome feeders,
reveling in fat and oil and sweets; and we
hope we are not libeling worthy folk when
we observe that they sometimes throw back
to forbidden pleasures by taking a brandy
cherry ortwo, or a dip into a tipsy-cake.
The sedative action on nervous function
explains why alcohol should be avoided by
those who are undergoing, or about to
undergo, violent and continuous physical
exercise. Navvies, agricultural laborers,
soldiers on campaign, arctic voyagers, and
professional athletes, all agree in the advice
that during the period of actual exertion
no strong drink should be taken. But the
belief is equally unanimous that, when the
day's work is over, a little alcohol soothes
and refreshes, improves the appetite and
digestion, and, by removing the restlessness
of fatigue, it invites sleep, and lessens wear
and tear.
The- Bole of Civilization.
Our next argument is a two-edged one,
but the sharpest side is turned to our
opponents. We say that people should be
allowed to drink moderately, because they
like it Yes; but is not this a reversal of
all morality and order, to preach the doc
trine that every man may be an absolutely
free agent, and make his laws as he goes
along? Coercion is required when individ
ual liberty overlaps the safety and con
venience of others, and drunkards must be
shut up when they become dangerous to
themselves or their neighbors. But to tell
a peaceful worklngman, who takes his glass
ot beer with his dinner and feels the better
for it, that he must have no
more cakes and ale, because some
body else cannot stand a glass of
gin, would be tyranny.unworthy of a civil
ized country. This is just how the matter
stands. A large seotion ot the community
partake moderately of stimulent,,and feel
that it does them good, they cannot explain
why; but they know perfectly well that if
they leave it off altogether they decline in
health, and seem to live less nappy lives.
This is all that the argument amounts to,
and we must take it for what it is worth;
but it is backed up by the universal craving
ot every tribe of people, be they savage or
cultivated, for something in the way of
stimulant or sedative. Kara, opium, arrack.
'bang, coffee, tobacco, something that will
excite or aouiuc, is ju uuivcrsai use au over
the world; and where civilization
comes in is to refine the quality of
our drinks, to increase their variety, and to
restrict their consumption within sober
limits. Bnt the taste for alcohol'is not con
fined to human beings. Animals take very
kindly to it, and a little practice makes
them confirmed topers. We have never met
a dog that could resist bread soaked in beer;
Richardson tells us of a oat that was taught
by some children to drink wine. "She
would amuse a company by taking her share
'of old port, and becoming first excited, and
yeiy stupid, unsteady, and sleepy." The
fioor beast became dropsical and died of
iver disease; but then it had been drenched
with drink far beyond the limits of modera
tion, and the usual results followed.
Bichardson alio tells .us of how he was
driving near Canterburry, when the
horsa stopped short at a
public house. "I tasked the
driver what that was for. The horse,' said
he, 'always stops here for bis beer; he
wouldn't go by on no account You couldn't
whip him by, sir, till he has hail his beer.
His former master taught him to drink beer,
and invariably treated him to it, and here
he'll stop till he gets it' It was the fact
a lane tankard of hear was brontht ont lor
that none, and he disposed ot the fluid with J
as much relish as his master, and then went
his way."
Teach People How to Drink.
Alcohol, no doubt is an acquired taste;
but all varieties of the animal creation
quickly acquire it, and those who are not
forbidden by their religion to touch the
'scenrsed thing," soon find out for them
selves how to extract it from root or herb.
And many of these who have no scientific
knowledge, when asked why they drink,
cannot give any other answer than that they
liked it, and it does them good. We all re
member the old Scotch story of three or
four men entering a public house. "Bring
me a glass of whisky," cries one, "because
it is a cold day." "And me one," says the
next, "because I am thirsty." "And me,"
explains the third, "because my doctor tells
me to drink it"Uut roared the fourth,
bringing his clenched fist down on the table
with a bang, "Bring me a glass of whisky,
because 1 like itl"
And this points to the real difficulty wo
meet in trying to convert workingmen to
total abstinence. We should employ our
time better in teaching them how to drink.
ThcvVre often wasteful In their habits.
1 spend more than they can afford on liquor,
and taKe it at tne wrong time, -out it we
meet one who sips his glass of beer with his
meals, and defends the practice because he
likes it and it does him no harm,, it is very
difficult for us to get the best oftheargu
ment, even if we can point to our own ex
perience. Up to this point we have taken our stand
on the impregnable rock of ascertained fact,
and if we step somewhat , timidly forward
into the region of speculation, we only do
so becaiiso we have a sure and steady guide.
Dr. William Parr was no dreamer of scien
tific dreams, bnt kept a singularly clear and
cautious mind up to the highest point of
logical sobriety by the constant study of
statistics. But this is what he wrote in'his
well-known volume on 'Vital Statistics':
Alchol appears to arrest the action of
zymotic diseases, as it prevents weak wines
from feimenting. Like camphor, alcohol
preserves animal matter: this is not now
disputed. But may it nnc do more? May it
not prevent the invasion of some kinds of
zymotio disease? I invite the attention of
those, who have portrayed the bad
effets of alcohol to consider whether
it does not prevent tho action
of vailous infections on the tem
perate. The neglect of this side or the ques
tion throws a doubt on many of their infer
ences. What wide possibilities of beneficent in
fluence does not this theory open upl and if
it be true, how undoubted must be the claim
of alcohol to rank as a friend rather than as
the destroyer of the human race I
