Here are two or three hits for Juvenile
tobacco smokers and chcwers, which we OK
tract from the Boston Olive Branch:
Tobacco has spoiled and utterly ruined
thousands of boys, inducing dangerous pre-
cocity, Developing the passions, sol1ening
and weakening the. bones, and greatly nju-
ring the spinal marrow, the brain
and the whole nervous fluid. A boy who
early and freely smokes, or othewise uses TO-
bacco, never is known to make a man of
much energy of character, and generally
lacks physical and muscular as we'll as men,
tai energy. To people older, who are natu-
rally nervous, and particularly to the pheg-
matte, tobacco may be mparativcly harm
less, but even to these it is worse than use
less. We would particularly warn boys
who want to be any body in the world, to
shun tobacco as deadly poison.
