It increases secretion, blunts sensation, exalts increases mental activity, and may produce insomnia strongly from both my personal and professional |of disease, ‘This has been so strongly impressed upon me the past winter that I am impelled to make a contribution to the subject by reporting # few cases in which coffee was so manifestly causing or continuing tha disease that it could not be ignored, Case I. In the latter part of December, 1903, I had under treatment an old lady, 74 years, who was convalescing from an attack of pneumonia, She had responded favorably to the treatment and was doing nicely exe |cept for a peculiar rise and fall of the temperature and an frregular action of the heart, She had been troubled more or less with weakness of the heart, and at this time its action was giving me a good deal of concern, Its beat being trregular and feeble, at mes much more so than at others. Al study of conditions and causes threw no Nght on the case until 1 found that the {regularity was more marked on the momings when she had coffee, which she did not have every morning. As I could not discover any other cause I advised that she should not take the coffee, After some demur on the part of the Patient she acceded, and Postum Cereal was substituted for the coffee. A favorable effect was almost immediately apparent; the Irregular action gave Place to a steady, regular beat, the pulse became fuller and stronger, the temperature became normal and the case went on to uninterrupted recovery, Case I. The result in case one set me thinking. For some t had been troubled with nervous dyspepsia, with cardaic Irritability, ad times great irreguiartty In the action of the heart, intermittent beat of the pulse and much nervous depression, all of which, in spite of treatment, was steadily getting worse. 1 had had light enough thrown on the cause, If I had not been so blinded by prejudice that I could not see. As, for instance, on one occasion, when the cook, who did not belleve that coffee was any good unless it rivaled in color her ebony face, gave me a cup of coffee o. » morning that was fully up to her ideal, and which, although I noticed that it possessed nearly the strength of Samson, I drank without consideration, T had been feeling rather better than usual for a day or two, but soon attacked with such peculiar sensations that I was une able to go out, and was obliged to call upon a colleague for treatment, Stngularly enough, although I had the feeling that 1 was under the ine fluence of some drug, it was not until some time afterward that I realized that I had been polsoned by the coffee. Under Strong tonic treatment I &) better for a time, but in December, 1903, 1 began to gTOw worse again, and, treatment failing to effect any improvement, it began to look as If | was in danger of a complete breakdown, ‘The colleague who was treating me was suspicious of kidney disease, but a urinary analysis cleared up that point, but I did not improve. It was at this time, as I have sald, the Tesult in case No. 1 set me thinking, and I found from a study of the modalities that 1 was worse and more depressed after taking coffee, and it finally penetrated into my inner con. sclousness that possibly coffee was the cause of my condition, I took my own prescription and gave up coffee, with the result of an almost imme. The depression disappeared, the cardaic dise turbance ceased, and the dyspeptic symptoms lessened and a steady im. provement set in, Case III, About the same time I had under treatment a young lady suffering from chronic nephritis who presented an almost endiess variety of symptoms, which would yield to treatment for a time, only to return {n an aggravated form. Among the more Persistent and annoying of these was a gastric Irritability, with an absolute refusal of the stomach to digest or absorb any food, progressive emaclation with great weakness, and a constant sensation of hunger with nausea and frequent spells of vomiting, when the food taken would be returned unchanged; palpitation of the heart, oedema, hectle fever, colliquative Sweats, etc. Under treat. ment and a most rigid diet the mitigation of the symptoms was very slight, | had advised her thet coffee was Injurtows and should be given up, ‘but ft was not untfl her condition was almost hopeless that she could be Induced to follow my advice and refrain from coffee. The beneficial effect of this was apparent at once: The stomach began to recover its tone, the Irrttabillty ceased, the vomiting stopped, and the food taken was digested and absorbed; the sensation of continual hunger disappeared, the emacia- tion lessened, and her strength slowly returned. Of course, the disease has not been cured, but a cure which seemed hopeless before has been made possible, Ag a result of these experfences, to which more could be added, In all cases of intractable nervous or gastric diseases | have come to regard! coffee as an incitant, and an important, if not the chief, factor in the pro- |duction of the disease, and to insist upon its discontinuance as a part of the treatment, and, I may add, with uniformly good effect. I have found also that, although the giving up of coffee has been in many cases done only under protest and with great reluctance, it has been attended with but little cifficulty when a palatable and satisfactory substitute was provided, In my own case and fm that of the others described | used the Poshim Cereal and found it entirely satisfactory.
