[To the Editor of the SPECTATOR.]
Sue—After reading the article on " The Effect of Alcohol," by Sir Arbuthnot Lane, I gave his advice to one of my men here, who for the past two months has been in great trouble owing to the fear of losing his three-months-old child, because of constant pain and indigestion caused evidently by the bottle df milk on which it would nut thrive but thrust aside after taking a small quantity. The parents could find no remedy, and were at their wits' end. Immediately a very small quantity of brandy was added to the bottle the child began to recover,. and is now getting fat again and sleeping, well ; the parents also are now. enjoying a good night's rest,, which after two months of anxiety can only be appreciated by those who.have undergone a like experience.--I am, Sir,. &c.,.
