Use OF Tobacco.

ToBAcco belongs to the class of narcotic
and exciting substances, and has no food
value. Stimulation means distracted, not
added, force. II involves the narcotic par
alysis of portion of the functions, the
activity of which Is essential to healthy
life. 1t will be said that tobacco soothes
and cheers the weary toiler, and solaces
the overworked brain. Such may be its
momentary effects, but the sequel cannot
be ignored. All such expedients are
fallacious. When certain amount Of
brain.work or hand-work has been per-
formed, nature must have space TO recu-
perate, and all devices for escaping from
this necessity will fail. 1t Is bad policy
to set the house on fire to warm our hands
by the blaze. Let 1t, then, be clearly
understood that the temporary excitement
produced by tobacco Is gained by the de-
struction of vital force, and that 1t con-
tains absolutely nothing which can be Of
use 10 the tissues Of the body. Tobacco
adds no potential strength to the human
frame. 1t may spur weary brain or
feeble arm to undue exertiOn for short
time, but Its work is destructive, not con-
sIuctive. II cannot add one molecule TO
the plasm out of which our bodies are
daily built up. On the contrary, II exerts
upon IL most deleterious influence. 1t
does not supply, but diminishes, vital
force. 1t has been denied that tobacco
leads TO organic disease, but the evidence
IL very strong the other way and 1t would
be very remarkable if continued func.
tional arrangement did not ultimately
lead to chronic arrangement Of the organs
that it causes functional disturbance, no
one dreams OF denying; indeed, it has
been remarked that no habitual smoker
can be said to have days perfect health.

SILVER AND GOLD.

In passing through life have constantly found
one maxim has led me Alright
rs not very deep. but it's thoroughly sound,
And it's words need scarcely recite-
IT'S a maxim that states with philosophy olden,
That speech may be silver but silence is golden.
I'VE been married. don't care to tell you how
long
I've bit OF a shrcw for my wife;
Her temper il bad and her language is strong,
Rut manage 70 keep out OF strife
For The peace of my life to this hint I'm beholden,
That speech may be silver but silence Is golden.
She's fond OF row, but row requires two,
And prudently shrink from retorts,
And simply for want of something to do,
She feels she is quite out of sorts
And such . result my belief must embolden,
That speech may be silver but silence is golden.
