The Deadly Nicotine.
a VICTIM OF HIS FIRST CIGAR.


The first cigar ever smoked by James
c. Godfrey, forty-seven years of age,
says the New York Morning journal,
killed him. He was born in New York
and was in business there at the time
of his death. He was quick, nervous
man, who worked hard, the effect being
to overtax his vital force. He was
very temperate man in his habits, and
tobacco had never touched his lips
until the fatal cigar was tasted. On
recent Sunday, his family being out of
town, he dined i'll his mothers house
with few friends. After dinner he
accepted a cigar, n strong one, which
had been protected by tinfoil, causing
the tobacco to retain all its strength
On consuming half of the cigar he was
taken deathly sick. This sensation
has been partaken of by nearly all be-
ginners, but never before in the history
of medicine has it been followed by
fatal results. The violent sickness was
followed by prostration, and on the
next Tuesday the family physician was
called in. lie stated that Mr.. Godfrey
had been poisoned by nicotine. TO
make assurance dOubly sure, he con
ferred with brother physician, who
had just previously treated boy iif-
teen years of age, who died from smok
ing cigarettes. Both practitioners
agreed that Mr.. GOdfrey's illness was
owing to his first cigar, and they treat
ed him for nicotine poisoning. Every
thing was done for the patient, but his
system was so prostrated that he died
within two weeks. The only other
case of nicotine poisoning ending dis
astrOusly of late happened in Brook
lyn. A Young student in the art of
chewing by self-teaching swallowed
the juice. His certificate of death is
now recorded as having been occas-
ioned by nicotine poisoning. As there
is no test for this kind of poisoning,
the inference has To he substituted for
the known fact.

WOInan'S Work.

! wish that 1t were i'll my power to
persuade young girls, who wonder
what they shall do to earn their living,
that it is really better to choose some
business that is in the line of wOman's
natural work, writes Sarah Orne jew
EFT in the COngregatiOnaliSt. There is
Il great repugnance at the thought of
being Il servant, but Il girl is no less a
servant to the man who owns the shop
where she stands all day behind the
counter than she is where she waits
upon the table or cooks the dinner in
IL pleasant house; and to my mind
there would not be minutes question
between the two ways of going out to
service. The wages are better, the
home is better, the freedom and liberty
are double in one what they are in the
other. If, instead of the sham service
that is given by ignorant and really
Ovcrpaid servants of to-day, sensible
New England girls who are anxious
to be taking care of themselves and
earning good wages would fit them
selves mt the cooking or any
way they found available, they would
not long wait for employment and
would be valued immensely by their
employers. When one realizes how
hard it is to find good women for
every kind of work in our houses, and
what prices many rich people are more
than willing to pay if they can he well
suited, it is wonder more girls are
not ready to seize the chances. 1t is
because such work has been almost
always so carelessly and badly done,
that it has fallen into disrepute, and
the doers of it have taken such low
rank. Nobody takes the trouble to fit
herself probably, but women trust to
being taught and finding out their
duties after they assume such positions,
not before.
There is an increasing demand for
skilled labor of every kind, and there
is no fear of the moneys being thrown
away that is spent in fitting ones self

years of study and training are from
many points of view seen to have been
waste of her time. But in following
any business that is connected with
housekeeping, and the personal inter
ests and concerns of a family, she has
spent her season of study and training
to the very best purpose. And, as for
looking at cooking and Homework as

much that as many other things are.
1t is capable of thousand more varia-
tiOns and pleasures and experiments
than running a sewing machine i'll a

the longer one lives in the world the
better one realizes that if by drudgery
is meant the patient toll which goes
day by day to the building and finish

laid carefully one by one to build the

He is the last man in the world to take

thief asking his advice as to how to
