Tobacco smoking.


The Mahommedan legend on the subject
is TOO long for repetition under its Eastern
garb. Suffice il that viper was restored 10
health by the warmth Of the Prophets body.
Immediately on convalescene, the ungraieiul
reptile announced its intention of biting it's
preserver. The Prophet expos,ulated. An
argument ensued, which ended in the viper's
carrying out Ms original project. The Proph.
Ell sucked The venom from hts wounded
wrist and spit il forth. "From these drops
sprung that wondrous weed, which has the
billerness of the serpen's tooth quelled by
The sweet saliva OF the Prophet.n But what.
ever the origin of tobacco, no plant has ex.
ercised SO much political influence. The
Pope Urban VIII excommunicated all those
who took snuff in church. The Empress
Elizabeth was less severe. She declared
the snuff boxes of those who made use OF
them in church should be cpnfiscated TO the
use OF the beadle. AT Berne the use of TO-
bacco was classified with adhllery. ln rran-
sylvana the penalty was for greater; in 1889
entire confscalion of property was the sen.
lence of those who should plant tobacco,
while consumers were condemned to fires
varying from three 10 Two hundred horins.-
Amurath Nv hung persons found guilty Of
smoking, with pipes through their noses and
a tobacco pouch hanging from their necks.
The Grand Duke ol Muscovy forbade smok.
ing and snuff-laking under the penalty of
having the nose cut off; while Mohamed Nv,
son OF the Sultan lbrahim, 1865. punished
the practice with decapitaion. II is related
OF Amnralh that smoking saphi once struck
the monarch himself for smoking with him
incosnilo on board caique. Amurath in.
formed The ssphi that the royal decree refer.
red equally 10 himself. "No,' replied The
saphi, 81 fish: for and would die for him.
II does moi apply 10 me-" A few days cub.
sequenlly Amuralh sent for him, and, m liking
himself known, gave his fellow. offender a
good appointment. But such penal regula.
tons appear always to have been esaded.
Those modern Amuraths, railway directors,
arrogate 10 themselves the right of inflicting
fine of ADs. and expulsion from their line
on any one guilty of the sublime act. But i,
is sweet 10 smoke under difficulties Were
the prohibition removed, smoking on railway
cars would probably cease. We know Of
one young man who feigned madness that
he might secure a carriage to himself
Another, on seeing bishop alight at an in.
termediate station, Immediately made for the
compartment and calling for guard com.
planned that the carriage was reekiHg of TO-
bacco smoke. "To be sure, those clencal
gentlemen do smoke terribly" answered the
official. "rhen don't accuse me of il here.
afler," reioined the youth with an arch smile.
On one occasion railway guard thrust bis
head INTO carriage filled with devotees 10
the sct Of their devotions, ard placing his
hand ou a cushion, observed, "There are
two very good rules on this line, gentlemen.
Smoking is strictly prohibited, and the com.
pany's servants are forbidden TO accept gra-
luiiies.r
