A Filthy Fashion That is Sapping the Life of
the Youth of America-What Physicians
Say About 1t.
The Philadelphia Times devotes a good
deal Of space to the cigarette vice, which is
of very recent and of very rapid growth, in
which are given the views of leading phy-
sicians. All agree substantially with the
following: about half the cases of nervous
break down in men" said DR.. Horatio c.
Wood, ARE the result Of the use of tobacco.
and the use of tobacco is much worse for
boys than it is for men.
There is a peculiar action of the heart
caused by the excessive use of tobacco,
known as the tobacco heart which the
elder DR.: Pepper made a special study of
and used to lecture upon. I have no pos
tive information Oh the subject, but be-
iieve cigarettes are the worst form in which
tobacco is used, and believe that their
sale to boys was prohibited in France. In
addition to the poison in the tobacco the
cigarette smoker absorbs certain amount
OF the empyreumatic oil of paper, which is
an irritant to the mucous membranes. CANS
ing catarrh. But this is not the worst ef-
feet. The action of the heart is depressed
and the whole system debilitated. Official
investigation in the schools of France
proved that the cigarette smoking students
were much behind the others. These vital
defects are sure to be transmitted to the
offspring.
DR.. J. NJ. Da Costa, who is a very high
authority on all nervous diseases. said he
had been called upon in his p,actice to stop
cigarette smoking by great many boys
who have indulgent parents. He knew
OF one case in which boys growth had
actually been stunted by excessive smoking.

treatment of throat and lung diseases"

published on The Throat and the Voice.
Here I say" said the doctor, taking up tho
book from his table: If a smoker is sub
ject to attacks of sore throat and is too
welded to his weed to divorce himself
from it, he should smoke a long steamed
pipe in preference to any other continuance.
because it renders the smoke cooler by the
time it reaches the throat The next safest
thing is to smoke a long cigar, not
much more than ono half of which should
be used, because the remainder becomes
warmer and more loaded with the poison.

pipe is not as safe as cigar and a cigarette

Some men can sleep anywhere and on
anything, except lounge. There is some-
drive away sleep from the sleepiest person
in the world. A person will 70 to church
and sit right straight up in pew and 90 to
sleep while the minister is trying his best
to keep the sleeper awake, but let the same
man 60 home and lie down on q lounge and
he can't go to sleep to save him. Nobody
knows what it is about lounge that drives
sleep away. Harry Morrison, young cas-
filter OF Eau Claire, who is boarding ut his
brother. in-law's, was asked to sleep on
lounge in the sitting room, as there was
sickness in the house, and it might be nec-
essary to call on him in the night to 20 for
the doctor. He never was much on
lounges anyway, but there was nothing
mean about him, so he prepared to 20 to
his rest SO as to be handy in case of emer-
gency. He camped down, and for two
hours tried to 60 to sleep. Sometimes the
back of the lounge would rear up and hook
him in the back, and than it would stab
him somewhere else. The springs would
work through the cover and corkscrew
themselves into his flesh, aad every hair of
the lounge-cover seemed to stand on
end and run into his vital parts. He
got nervous and wished they would coll him
and send him clear to Chippewa Falls after
doctor. Finally he got up and went into
the bath room, where there was bath. tub
which looked to him as though it would
make downy bed, such as an angel might
sleep in. compared to the lounge. He is no
angel, but he got some quilts and pillow
and put them into the bath-tub and lay
down in it, and in FIVE minutes he was
asleep. Most young men kick more or less
in their sleep. md Harry is no exception.
He kicked and his foot came in contact
with the faucet and turned the water on.
The cold water struck the quilts and made
no noise to awaken him, but gradually the
cold fluid found its way up his trouser- legs,
along his spine, and in fact all over him.
He began to dream that he was running for
ce-presidcnt on ticket with Charlie |,
Francis Adams. Then the dream change u!

that he was grasped by the hair of his head
by his brother in law, and jerked out of the

trying to commit bathtubcide. The BROTH

In sailing down the Ganges during the

All OF them are rendered picturesque by

scene is hardly less animated by night
than BY day, and all without t,,mult and
disorder: Every one of these localities is
hallowed by some NEUROLOGICAL tradition,
and the firmest faith is reposed by the
pilgrims in the truth of those traditions.
Engrafted for hundreds. nay, thousands Of
years, in the minds of the people, they
have grown up with them articles Of
faith, strengthened with their strength.
