INJURY FROM QUININE.

The quinine habit is gaining strength every day. Dizziness, that you hear innumerable people complaining of in these days, can be traced to excess in the use of quinine. The good effects, that it is nearly always certain of, are lost by excessive doses. Too much quinine will also produce congestion of the ear and vibration of the auditory nerve. The growing habit of taking quinine for neuralgia and other like ailments, without consulting a physician, is altogether reprehensible, and may lead to very serious results. Many cases of deafness are produced by overdoses and long-continued use of the drug.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
