Dr. Chapusot, of Paris, thus sums up his personal observations: "A claret-glass of this wine has always been enough to make me forget hunger and to sustain my strength; I have felt a grateful warmth and a general exaltation of the economy; the digestion of the following meal has always been easier than if I had not taken the _Vin Mariani_, and, although I had not such a ravenous appetite as if I had gone without it, I ate a good deal, the stomach appearing stronger and more active." It was Dr. Ch. Fauvel who gave our wine the very striking and exact title of "Tensor of the vocal cords." He says: "Thanks to _Vin Mariani_, I have been able to restore the voice of many lyric artists who would have been unable without this potent agent to give their performances." Dr. J. Leonard Corning, in _Brain Exhaustion_, New York, 1884, pages 78 and 112, says: "Of all the medicaments that I employ in the very numerous cases of irritability, _Vin Mariani_ has rendered the greatest service. I do not except even the bromides, for this preparation of Coca possesses the calmative properties of those salts without producing the unpleasant depression which characterizes them." The same author continues: "The _Vin Mariani_ is the remedy _par excellence_ for _ennui_. At the same time it produces a fortifying action on the cerebral center and gives rise to a decided sensation of well-being." Dr. Morell Mackenzie, London, advises the _Vin Mariani_ as a stimulant and tonic, and uses it especially with speakers and singers. 19 Harley Street, Cavendish Square, W., London. GENTLEMEN:—I have much pleasure in stating that I have used the _Vin Mariani_ for many years, and consider it a valuable stimulant, particularly serviceable in the cases of vocalists. Yours faithfully, MORELL MACKENZIE, M. D. Professor Sajous, of Philadelphia, who has experimented with _Vin Mariani_ in troubles of the vocal organs, has obtained excellent results from its use, and he advises it, not only as a restorative of the voice, but as a general tonic. Dr. Libermann, Surgeon-in-Chief, French Army, communicates his experience, as follows: "I have the honor to inform you of the results which I have obtained in my long career of military practice from the use of _Vin Mariani_. "I have used it with great success for profound anæmia resulting from long and tedious campaigns in hot countries, and accompanied, as is nearly always the case, by gastro-intestinal irritation with loss of appetite and dyspepsia. Two or three Bordeaux-glasses of _Vin Mariani_ daily, removed that condition quite rapidly, by restoring the appetite and the tolerance of the stomach for a tonic aliment.
