Coffee and Asthma.
J Coffee is a very excellent remedy for asthma. Those who do not -know how to cut short their attacks .and have not tried coffee should do so by ail means. It .often succeeds admirably, according to the Family Doctor, when almost everything else has failed There are one- or two little points to be Attended to in taking coffee for asthma. In the first place, it should be very strong — in fact, perfectly block. Weak coffee does more harm than goott If made very strong much of it need not be taken; a large quantity is a positive disadvantage, for it is less rapidly absorbed and only distends the stomach. Then it should be given without, sugar or milk, pure "oafe noir." It should be given on an empty stomach, for when taken on a full stomach it often does harm by putting a stop to -the process of digestion.
