Put in a large quantity, pour on the water, turn off the liquor; turn it off at once don't let it stand; it becomes poisonous. I am a great patron of tea; the poet truly says, 'It cheers, but not inebriates. It has sometimes a singular effect upon my nerves; it makes me whistle so people tell me; I am not conscious of it. Sometimes, too, it has a dyspeptic effect.
Unlike the Anacreontic in praise of the grape, song suggestive chiefly of bacchanal revels and loose jollity, the verse which extols "the cup that cheers, but not inebriates," brings to mind home comforts and a happy household. And not only have some of the "canonized bards" of England celebrated its honors, like Pope, in the "Rape of the Lock," when describing Hampton Court,
She gave him his glass of the pale-yellow Russian tea that neither cheers nor inebriates, but merely distends and irrigates, and sat over against him, sipping at her glass and returning his gaze with her steady eyes. "I've only had this room a little time," she remarked. "I've had just a bedroom before. But I had to have somewhere for people to come the people who can't go to Mr. Selby, I mean.
"For a better understanding," he says, "of the requisite discipline demanded in the way of remedial restraint of inebriates, we notice some of the results of chronic inebriation affecting more particularly the brain and nervous system which, in addition to the necessary medical treatment, necessitates strict discipline to the successful management of these cases."
It is the poor, miserable inebriates, and their wives and children, who will suffer; and when the news of your victory was flashed over our Dominion, it caused sorrow to visit the hearts of thousands of the purest and best, while a fiendish howl of exultation went up from every low groggery and brothel that the tidings reached."
"Howard?" asked Michael "but anyone can be a Talbot or a Howard or a Cavendish out there so she is a Mrs. Howard, is she? I wonder who the husband was I had a rascally cousin of that name who went to Arizona perhaps she married him." "Her husband was an American," Henry rejoined, "and is in a madhouse or an institution for inebriates, I believe."
Who is there among all our wise men and social reformers that can send me a list of all the best tracts upon say, the establishment of agricultural colonies or the experiments that have been made in dealing with inebriates; or the best plans for the construction of a working man's cottage?
He trudges along, steadily, diligently; avoiding the muddy pools, but oblivious of the light which they reflect. "Eyes" takes the walk too: and for him it is a perpetual revelation of beauty and wonder. The sunlight inebriates him, the winds delight him, the very effort of the journey is a joy. Magic presences throng the roadside, or cry salutations to him from the hidden fields.
Here they all three laugh, and Mrs. Nixon says they are giddy girls; in which stage of the proceedings, Felix, who has by this time refreshened himself with the grateful herb that ‘cheers but not inebriates,’ removes his cup from his countenance and says with a knowing smile, that all girls are; whereat his admiring mamma pats him on the back and tells him not to be sly, which calls forth a general laugh from the young ladies, and another smile from Felix, who, thinking he looks very sly indeed, is perfectly satisfied.
At first Hale thought that she had shrunk from kissing him in the car because other people were around. He knew better now. At that moment he was as rough and dirty as the chain-carrier opposite him, who was just in from a surveying expedition in the mountains, as the sooty brakeman who came through to gather up the fares as one of those good-natured, profane inebriates up in the corner.
