The Virtues of Coffee.
The action of coffee is directed chiefly
to the nervous system, jt produces a
warming, cordial impression on the
stomach, quickly followed by a diffused,
agreeable and nervous excitement,which
extends itself to the cerebral functi >ns,
giving risa to increased vigor of imagin
ation and intellect, without any subse
quent confusion or stupor, such as arc
characteristic of narcotics. Coffee con
tains essential principles of nutrition fir
exceeding in importance its exhilarating
properties, and is one of the most desir
able articles for sustaining the sy-tem in
certain prostrating diseases. As com
pared with the nutrition to be derived
from the be-t of soups, coffee has de
cidedly the advantage, and is to he pre
ferred in many instances. The medicinal
effects of coffee are very great. In in
termittent fever it has been used by em
inent physicians with the happiest ef
fects in cutting short the attack, and if
properly managed is better in many
cases than the sulphate of quinine. In
that low state of intermittent, as found
on the banks of the Mississippi River
and other malarial districts, accompa
nied with enlarged spleen and torpid
liver, when judiciously administered it
is one of the surest remedies. In yellow
fever it has been used by physicians,
and with some it is their main reliance
after other necessary remedies have been
administered; it retains tissue change,
and thus becomes a conservator of force
in that state in which the nervous sys
tem tends to collapse, because thpblood
has become impure; it sustains the
nervous power until the depuration and
reorganization of the blood are accom
plished, and has the advantoge over
other stimulants in inducing no injuri
ous secondary effects. In spasmodic
asthma its utility is well established, as
in whooping cough, stupor, lethargy
and such troubles. In hysterical at
tacks, for which in many cases a physi
cian can form no diagnosis, coffee is a
great help.
Coffee is opposed to malaria, to all
noxious vapors. As a disinfectant it has
wonderful powers. As an instantaneous
deodorizer it has no equal for the sick
room, as all exhalations are immedi
ately neutralized by simply passing a
chafing-dish with burning coffee grains
through the room. It may be urged that
an article possessing such powers and
capacity for such energetic action must
be injurious as an article of diet of ha
bitual employment, and not without,
deleterious properties; but no corre
sponding nervous disarrangements have
been observed after its effects have dis
appeared, as are seen in narcotics and
other stimulants. The action imparted
to the nerves is natural and healthy.
Habitual coffee drinkers generally en
joy good health. Some of the oldest
people have used coffee from earliest
infancy without feeling any depressing
reaction, such as is produced by alcoholic
stimulants.— Philadelphia Times.
Cremation in England.
The cases of cremation in England to
which allusion is made in this morn
ing s telegrams are likely to bring on
an extended and exciting dis ussion.
lhe bodies cremated seem to have been
those of Elina Dean Patev, second wife
ot the Rev Sir .James Hanham, seventh
Baronet of the line, and o f her
daughter-in-law, Edith Mary, third wife
of Commander Thomas Barnabas Han
naw. lhe English Cremation Society
soon after its formation in 1874. ob
tained an opinion from Dr. Tristram
and Mr. Meadows White to the efleet
that the performance of the process o f
cremation was perfectly le-al in En
gland. provide.l that ii involved no con
sequence which could be construed by
any one as a nuisance. Bishop Rofl'en
who was first appealed to, refused to
permit the setting apart of a portion of
the Great Northern Cemetery for the
ere tion ol a Crematorium, and after
the society had erected a Gorini fur
nace at Woking so much outcry was
F’t.sed that the projectors had to aban
don the enterprise, or at least lot it fall
into abeyance lor lhe moment. This
crematory was erected in March, 1876,
when the Home Secretary, while ad*
mitting tha* the proposed practice was
unaflweted by existing law, declared
that, inasmuch as the registration of
deaths had always been associated with
burial, he was constrained to conclude
that cremation must first be approved
by I’arliani. nt. He further advise I the
council of the society to introduce a
short bill into the House of Lords and
not rely upon the opinions of counsel.
Only a lew weeks ago it was reported
that the Cremation Society had re
ceived a more formidable set-back by
he decisii n of the High Court of
Justice in the Crookenden ea-e. Henry
Crookenden, dying, left his body to his
friend, Miss Eliza Will ams, by whom
it was to be cremated, his executors
being charged with defraying any ex
penses she might incur. The executors
and family, notwithstanding her pro
test, buried the body, but Miss Will
iams obtained a permit to remove it to
any church-yard, where she did indeed
deposit the re mt ins, but not until they
had been taken to Italy and duly cre
mated- Miss Williams sued the ex
ecutors to recover the expenses ol her
proceedings, but was defeated, the
court holding that she had obtained the
license by misrepresentation and ille
gality; that t ere could be no property
in a corpse, and that the provisions
with regard to the delivery of the body
were void, and, finally, that cremation
was illegal. The decision, however,
was regarded by very good authorities
as oppo-ed alike to good sense and the
spirit and tendency of modem law in
such matters, and no concealment was
made of the intention to bring the sub
ject to a test at no distant day W. I'.

“Gilbert Lang, you are charged with

“I deny that 1 did!” hotly replied the
prisoner, a man of fifty with a very i
Jong neck and a very queer voice.
“Then 111 prove it. Where’s the

Three witnesses came forward and
testified that night had been made hid
eous by certain sounds which they
traced to the prisoner.
“What sori of sounds?”
“Shrieks mid screams your Honor. ’
“1 deny it.” shouted <>ill;crt “1
was simply singing, as I walked about.”
“Well, some folks’ singing is enough
to disturb a whole neighborho >d,” re
marked the Court. “ Perhaps your voice
is not musical.”
“ It isn’t, eh? You just listen to it
and decide for yourself.”
And thereupon the man drew a full
breath and gave utterance to such
sounds as ma le the chills creep over
everybody in the room, 'lhe Court
tried to stop him, and Bijah sought to
bribe him, and the clerk ran out doors;
and it was lull three minutes before he
could be choked off.
“There! Do yon call that disturbing
the peace?” he demanded ns he paused
for breath.
“Mr. Lang. I can’t send you up for
life,” replied the Court, “and 1 want to
make a bargain with you, I’ll suspend
sentence if ton'll leave town.”
“And I’ll give him a dollar.” said thd
