Overview

Excerpt from The International Dental Journal, 1890, Vol. 11: A Monthly Periodical Devoted to Dental and Oral Science Gentlemen, - All that lives must die; and dying, disintegrate and resolve itself into elements that enter into new cycles of use fulness. This phenomenon of universal disintegration must have aroused the interest of the human intellect from the first moment that it reached such a state of perfection as led it to inquire into the causes of things. If this disintegration did not exist, the matter of organized beings would encumber the earth, and the law of perpetuity of life would be compromised. A great phenomenon presides over this work; this phenomenon is fermentation. Our forefathers may have been savages; but they were clever and observant ones. After organizing their own rude arts, they turned beasts into servants; they founded agriculture; planted the grape. This fruit was surely antediluvian, for we are told that Noah, on leaving the ark, planted a vineyard, drank of the wine.
