What do Men Chew Tobacco For!

This is a question often asked 1t is a
terrible filthy habit-and how many, too,
are guilty of its practice! The old, the
middle aged, the young, the poor,and the
rich, are alike guilty of this outrage upon
common neatness and good health. What
do folks chew it for? Surely, not because
it is conducive to health, for common ev-
eryday observation, as well as the exper-
ience of physicians, prove that tobacco is
highly injurious to the physical system,
and supplying to the mind. Not because
it is palateable, for all the tobacco-chew-
ers speak of the difficulties they had to
overcome-the sickening, nauseating feel
ing produced-before they could master
the gentlemanly habit of bespattering the
floors and carpets with the delectablejulce.
Every one has to serve regular appren-
ticeship at the business before he can mas
ter it.
The best answer to the question pro-
posed that we have ever heard,wa given
by one of those venerable men not quite
in their teens, in answer to the same
question:
what does | chew tobacco for!-why
to get tie juice ola ont-why dye think!'
If the most enveterate tobacco chewer
can give better answer to this question,
we should like to hear it.

each, and in bundles Of two reams each, each ream
to contain $50 perfect sheets Uniformity in color,
thickness, and weight will be required; and no
the standard weight will be received and the gross
weight will in all cases be required. Mixing of
various thicknesses in the same bundle to make up
the weight will be considered violation of the
contract. In reference to the above three classes,
contracts will be entered into for supplying the
quantities required therein, at such times as the
public service may require; but the privilege is
served OF ordering greater quantity, on either
clase should greater quantity be required, at such
times and in such quantities as may be deemed
necessary.
