Do You Smoke?

The United States Navy annually
takes into its service a large number of
apprentice boys who are sent all over
the world and taught to be thorough
sailors. 1t has been tho policy of the
Government since the war to educate
the "bluc jacket" upon the principle
that the more intelligent tho man is
the better sailor he is likely to become.
There is no lack Of candidates for these
positions. Hundreds of boys apply,
but many are rejected because they can
not pass the physical examination.
Major Houston, one of the Marine
Corps, who is in charge of the WASH
ington n%avy-yards barracks, is authori-
ty for the statement that one-fifth of
all the boys examined are rejected on
account Of heart disease.
His first question to a boy who de-.
sires to enlist is: "Do you smoker"
The invariable response is, mo, SIR"
but the tell-tale d~iscoloration of the fin
gers at once shows the truth. The
Surgeons say that cigarette-smoking
by boys produces heart disease, and
that in ninety-nine cases out of a hum
dred the rejection of would-be appren-
tees on account of this defect comes,
from excessive use Of the thildet form
of the weed. This is u remarkable
statements coming, as it does,' from SO
high an authority, and based upon the
result of actual examinations going on
day after day, and month after month.
1t should be a warning to parents that
the deadly cigarette is SUI to'bring
about incalculable injury to the young.
Aslaw passed, restricting its use to the
dudes, would not, perhaps bring pop
u}ar disfavor, because it might reduce
the number of these objects about our
streets, but boys indulging in the ciga-
rette ought to he treated to liberal
doses of '.rod in pickle until the habit
is thoroughly eradicated. Scientific

Native ToDatto.

'.1s there any improvement in the
quality of native tobaccop" asked the
reporter, a..
THE quality Of the leaf grown in
Pennsylvania, New York Massachu-
sets and New Jersey" said the dealer,
''has materially improved, and, togeth-
er with that now grown in Wisconsin
and other Western States, forms the
principal cigar, tobacco used In this
country. The Connecticut leaf appears,
for some reason. to be deteriotating in
texture and flavor. This is due, in my
opinion. to enforced production by tho
use of guano, and tile cultivation of
the same fields year after yeat in the
same staple. The duality of the crop
grown in Cuba is yearly deteriorating,
from the same cause as that in Connec-
ticut. 1t is true that there is but one
Havana tobacco; and, that its exduisit
flavor can not be initiated OF produced
on any other soil than that of Cuba,
but the flavor has lost much of its fine
quality. The tupidity of the tobacco
growers in %endeavoring to stimulate
growth and produce quantity at the
expense OF quality, has brought its own
punishment:
1.-The large crop of tobacco grown
every year in Maryland" the dealer
said. answering an inquiry of tile re-
porter, zig sent TO Europe. My !opin.
ion, based on statistics, is thattthe larger
portion. of Maryland tobacco, is
shipped sto the GeyIaan states, where it
is smoked in thsaapipe. II will, not
make cigars, and,io of such a poor
quality there is no: demand for it III the
United States. Sumatra tobacco is
used largely in cigars. 1t makes not
only a very pretty. wrapper, but it is
not detrimental to a good filler. Fine
Sumatra is the best known leaf for q
wrapper after tine Cuba. "-WashtnV-

How Whaling Ships Winter in the
Arctic.

In the fall, just before it gets SO cold
that the ice forms, the ships huddle to-
gether, and each puts down two an
,chors, one at the bow and ono at the
storm, and these hold them from strik.

until the ice forms around them and
freezes them in solidly. Then the an

With lumber which they have brought
from home, the whalers build q sub.
stantial house over the ship. Then
they get the Ekimo to build a sort of
snow house over the wooden house
and, so, with all this covering to pros
tect them, they manage to keep warm
and comfortable with very little fire,
however cold it may be out-of.doors.
Sometimes they put in double windows,
the inside ones of glass, US usual, and
the outside ones being made of slabs
of ice, like the curious windows of the
ingloos: The white men do not live id
these temporary houses built on tops
of the ships, but in the cabin and fore

the ship to keep the real places warm,
and right wel it does its work. This
~''house;" however, is very useful as a
place for taking B4eEacise, for ship-car-
pentering work, and for any small jobs
that may be necessary The Eskimo
also congregate there, especially about
meal-time; when generous whalers
treat them with sea-bread and weak
tea sweetened with molasses. From

The Horrors of Morphine.

"Give me only a few drops; for Gods

to sell him q small quantity of NOR
