Coffee—for example—may possess a pleasing flav- our for some, but it contains a most harmful element— caffeine, a subtle, cumulative drug, the continued use of which frequently leads {o various diseases of the kid- neys, liver and other vital organs, and sometimes to pre- maiure old age. Among the symptoms of caffeine poisoning are headache, nervousness, biliousness, sleep- lessness, heart-flutter, “brain-fag,” and so on.
