Curious Calculation. Lord Chesterfield
was q great enemy to snuff taking; indeed
tobacco in any shape was his aversion. -
He calculated that every ,nve,erate snuff
taker takes ono pinch every ten minutes
every pinch, with the agreeable ceremony
OF wiping and blowing the nose. and other
incidental circumstances, consumes q min
ute. and a half. This, allowing sixteen
hours to snuff taking day. amounts to two
hours and twenty -four minutes out Of every
natural day or one day out Of every ten -
or thirty six days in a year. Thus If the
practice sha u be persisted in for forty years,
Two entire years Of a snufftnkcrs life will
be dedicated to tickling HE nose. and two
more TO blowing it, Boston Nero. Jour.
