in our country and in Europe. Nor IL
this strange, when IL 10 the appalling
testimony Of q college OF physicians
that twenty thousand In our own land
die annually from this poison. The
only wonder l. how any doctor can fall
10 throw the whole weight OF his infn-
ence against this practice.
In the words Of DIR. Budget:
Tobacco il poison Of the most vir-
uient and destructive character, and
believe that drachm Of deadly night
shade would not be more fatal than the
same quantity of tobacco"
Says another eminent physician:
IL know of no sin, among all the
groups of sins which crop out In our
habits OF living, that for destructive
vIgor aud ruinous accomplishment can
compare with the use Of tobacco"
In this view, what shall be said OF
the doctors who prescribe this poison
for patient, and thus, for mere tenn
porary soothing effect, bring him into
bondage entailing evils beyond COM
putation TO himself and family! A
certain phys clan recommended the
chewing OF tobacco to man rs the OH
ly thing to secure him against a fever
to which he was exposed In the case of
one OF his family. But what of a wo-
man1 How about said mans wife aud
daughter, who, from being more con-
stantly In the sick room, were tar more
exposed? Were their lives of less val
ne than his2 Why didn't the doctor
prescribe 1t for them also?
know man of fine intellect and
high moral character who had come to
a ripe maturity without touching the
filthy weed. He is attacked with
whooping cough. A wise O. doctor
recommends smoking, to quiet the
paroxysms of the cough. and himself
brings and presents the first cigar to
the patient-his very best medical Dpre-
scription. Does he offer one to the
woman, suffering from similar parox.
ysms and with less strength to bear
them1 And the children, with their
fearful coughing fits-does he bring q
cigar for their relief? The poor baby,
too, who grows black and all but dies
in the struggle for BREATH Is 1t too
Young TO smoke? Why not, then
teach the little coughing sister this fine
art, and let her smoke In baby's face?
Docs not every doctor know that
under any such i'll omened spell the
tender in FAINT would speedily pine
away and die2
BIT what Of the husband and father
after his first and second and third cl-
gar? Why, grand man though he Is = a
man, too, OF great strength of character
-he becomes an inveterate smoker.
And, though. with his fine constitu-
ton, the i'll effects on bis health may
not at once be obvious, yet, like many
another tobacco user, he may be sud
denly stricken down with apoplexy or
heart disease, when the doctors, per-
haps, will pronounce judgment that he
died from tho effects of smoking.
viii any one complain of his medical
adviser for malpracticef
Then who can tell what injury this
loving father may not have entailed OF
his children, by theksore retributive
law of heredlly? Aud what IL his
boys aspire to cigar2 Shall their
smoking father forbid them, holding
himself upin te1ToTem2 Alas this

Who can say that II Is not a very
dreadful one?
A leading physician in one OF our
largest cities, in speaking of those who
had iudnlged In this practice for years,
Win securing iuP"hity, huus: but
have never Known q habItual tobacco
user whose children, born after he had
long used IL. did not have deranged
nervous systems and sometimes evil
IDENTITY weak minds. Shattered ner-
vous systems OF generations to come
may be the result Of his indulgence"
Another prominent physician, who
himself both chews and smokes, Is
honest enough 10 admit that tobacco
Is too deadly poison TO be used even
as u medicine" and declares that he
wonld give Ave hundred dollars 10 he
free from its use"
A miserable tobacco slave, who has
