The Color Of CIGARS.

The artificial dveing of cigars has as
vet attracted but little attention among
smokers, and is conducted very quietly
and is apparently harmless, yet under
all circumstances it should be con-
demned Every artificial change of a
natural product ike tobacco, to give it
p better appearance, should Of itself be
branded as improper Then we must
take into consideration the fact that the
natural color Of the cover has an essen
tial influence upon the strength of the
cigar, and consequently most smokers
place great value on the color. BY
artificial coloring, on the contrary, thS
Judgment is deceived, and it makes iJ
impossible to determine the quality Of
the cigar from the color of the cover;
for every dealer now has it in his power
to make splendid dark cigars from his
very light ones without any trouble.
But we have especially to notice that
now poor-colored and refuse cigars may
acquire q fine color and be sold for
good ones. On all these grounds dye
ing cigars must be ranked as an adui-
teration for the purpose of swindling
the public Unfortunately, no means
has vet been devised whereby the peO-
pie can Distinguish such cigars in all
cases from the genuine. All we can do
at present is to cali attention to the fact
and recommend caution in the matter
