M. Leuen thus writes: He mixed 30 grammes of coffee in 150 grammes of water for a dog, which is killed three hours after. The mucous membrane of the stomach is found pale, discolored, and profoundly anaemic. The vessels on the internal surface, as well as those in the periphery, are contracted. There remains 145 grammes of the mixture undigested, amd the stomach digestion is diminished* because the contraction of the ressels and the consequent anssmio condition of the mucous membrane prevent the secretion of the gastric juice. The abuie of ooffee will produce dyspepsia. Thus, the Eng« lish and the Dutch, who drink freely both of tea and coffee, are very dyspep* tic. Coffee increases the cerebral functions—an effect useful, agreeablei tad innocuous.
