Tea, COffee, and Cocoa for the Sick.
FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE.
Too . .much _ is said against tea by wise
people, and too much of tea is given to the
sick by foolish people— When you see the
natural and almost universal craving in
English sick, for their, " tea," :You cannot
but feel that nature knows what she is
about, But a little tia_ or, coffee, restores
them quite* much as a great ideal; and a
great. deal of tee,' and . especially of Coffee,
impOierthe little, power of digestion they
have. • , Yet the , ritirie becatme
. she sees how
one or two-cups of tea •or coffee'Testores her
patient, thinks that three or four- will do
twice as much. This is not-the case at. all;
it is, however, certain that there is noth
ing yet discovered whieh is a substitnte to
the ~English Ladle*•for his cup of:tea ; he
can take it' When hocan take nothing else,
and lie' often cannot: take anything else if
he has ;It not. I should be very glad if
any of the abusers of tea would point, out,
what to give to an 'Engliali. patient, after
a slbefileas *night Instead' if lea. If you
give it at five or six o'clock • in` the. morn
ing,. he may 'eireneometimes fall aileep
after it, and, get. perhaps,' hie •only two or
three heurs'..*§leep during the twenty-four.
At the stone :tithe,. you never should give

and is ielieved:,lsy tea: The only - English
patients I haveever'knoiVri refuse tea,have

Wile la a better reiterative thaniea., but a
greater impairer of thodigestion. Let the
patient's taste, decide. You will say. that
in cases Of great, thirst, the ,. patient's crav
ing decides that he - will-drink a greatdeal
of tea, and that you cannot help it. But,'
in theiveasei be mi t re that. the patient ro. -
quires diluent's' for)Naito ether purposes
.than quenching the 'thirst; he wants a
great deal of some drink, not; 'only. of tea,, ,
and the Albeter , iiilroider that he is to= ave

and milk, .ais "the' case: may be. Lehman,
quoted'by Dr. Christmon, says, that,among
the well and active " the..infusion. of an
ounce of roasted coffee daily, will diminish
the waSte, going on in the body by'one-
fourth.;" and •Dr. Christisen adds •that tea
has the. same property. Now, this is
actual experiment. =
...Lehman weighs the
man and 'finds - Ai; fact fromlie weight. it
not dedticted from any 'analysis" of
footte' exPerience among the sick shows
the ' thing.
Cocoa is often reconitnended to the sick
in lied Ofttea or coffee. '.But independently
of thelant, that Englisheick very gen . erally
dislike cocoa, it has onite a different effect
froin', tea or • coffee: A It, is an' oilyystarohy
nut, havingrinrestorative power At all, but
simply increasing fat. - It is pure mockery
of' the sick, therefore, to call it a substitute
for tea. For any renovating stimulus it has,
you might, just', as well offer them chestnnts
instead of tea.
An almost universal error among nurses
is the bulk of food, and especially the
drinks they offer to their patients. Sup-,
pose a patient ordered four ounces of
bran - 444041g the day,how. is he to take

giving the patient's' digestion more to do ;
and most likely of' all, the ,patient will
leave haltoE. what;he has been Ordered to
take t because he could'hot swallow the bulk
with - Which you have been pleased to i!nvest,

and makes the dish actual food, instead of
a mere relish. The pan must be carefully
watched, and but little fire used,,' and the
mass stirred often to prevent burning,

Bible Printing.
In the evidence *given during the - early
part of this session..before the select com
mittee on the Queen's Printers' patent, the
annual production of Bibles in this coun
try is estimated r by, ,O.". Knigh t, as be
tween two and three millions of copies.
The books for', which there is the next
largest permanent, demand are sold to be -
Shakespeare," and, perhaps, " The Pil
grim's Progress;" but it is not considered
that, more than ,twenty thousand copies of
"'Shakespeare' - are sold in a:year. It szp
peais that there was, until - of late years,,
much carelessness in..printing the Bite.
So recently as 1831 ? Principal Lee stated,
" I do not know any book of which it is so
difficult to find a very, correct edition, AS
the English Bible." The' Bibles 'now is
sued from the Universities and by the
Queen's printers are . very accurate;; the.
Oxford printers offer a guinea for the dis
covery of any mistake. But some of the
Bibles allowed (On account - 4 having notei)
to be printed by private printers have ver
bal inaccuracies, and there, are errors in
some Bibles which have been ,published in
Scotland, where Bible ,printing is free. to
all, but`under supervision.. In the United
States a preference, is given.
,to_English
tions printed by authority, because it is
considered a .greater security for -the cor- -
rectness of the text; and ,the preference
cannot be wondered at, when we find a
printer stating before this committee. that
an edition of the Bible with notes was is
by a private printer irk -.England and
got into extensive circulation ) . and it was
proposed to Trint it in Scotland Under the
authority' of the Bible Board, but • they
found so many errors in it that they re—
jected it, and so (says .the .witness) the
"copies had to be, exported:! r Printer's
state in their evidence , that there is great
difficulty in attaining correctness with re
gard to the italics ; one' improvement pro
posed has been that of printing within
brackets the words •necessary to make up
the sense, instead of printing then i in-ital
ics, ".according to the barbarous custom of
the present printers . Of the .§eriptures,"-
which Mr. Knight "alSo -- cohdenils as em
.barrassing to unlearned_readers., Thirthe
chief alteration Of 'the present day consists
of a division into paragraphs, instead - of
chapters ; in some instances, however, this
division is made with very little jiidginent.
keg London publisher told the committee.
that he anticipates that stereotype plateaof
theßible will, on the repeal of the paper
day, be - sent hence' to 'Germany, and the'
Bibles printed there for iinportation into
this country ; and he refers to an English
book which was sent' s toXeipsic:to be print,
and then: published in ilia, eountry ; the in
..
ducement being the cheapness of paper in
Germany, in onsequence of the practical
-prohibition of the exportation, of
