this weed, which might, he alleges, be consider
I'd a harmless luxury but for one exceptional
fact, he asks: ''Has not tobacco property be-
longing To very few substances, which makes its
Ese exceptionally dangerouS-the property.
when administered in an overdose. OF effecting
some permanent change, probably in the spinal
cord, which renders the victim forever after
