It is the essential nature of all wines I and spirits to send an increased amount . of blood to the brain. The first effect of taking a glass of wine or stronger form of alcohol is to send the blood there faster than common. Hence the circula­ tion that gives the red face. It increases tbe activity of the brain and it works faster, and so does the tongue, but as the blood goes faster than common to the brain, it returns faster and no imme­ diate harm may result. But suppose a loan keeps on drinking; the blood is sent to the brain so fast in large quantities that in order to make room for it the arteries have to charge themselves. They Increase in size, and, in doing so, they press against the more yielding, flaccid veins which carry the blood out of the brain, and diminish the size of the pores --the result being that the blood is not- only carried to the arteries °f the brain faster than is natural or healthful, but is prevented from leaving it as fast as usual. Hence a double set of causes of death are in operation. Hence, a man may drink enough brandy or other spirits in a few hours, or even minutes, to bring on a fatal attack of apoplexy. This is being literally dead drunk. GROSS GRUELTY.
