VIRGIN1A's GREAT PRoGREss.-Virginia
shows surprising increase in values within
the past five years. The re-assessments for
real estate are now all in the auditors Office,
and the enhancement in real property
which they show over the assessment OF 1880
is $50, 103, 1913 50. The increase in personal
property in the same time is stated to be

personal, have increased within the last five
years $57, 98s, s73 81, or at the rate of over

Effects of Cigarette Smoking Oh
Boys.

The smoking of cigarettes is becoming a
general practice in this city among boys OF
from nine to fifteen years of age. No class
of society is exempt from the vice. Those
who dare not smoke at home, do so in the
streets, or among their companions in places
where their parents will not be likely to see
them Some parents are lax enough to per-
nit the boys to smoke at home, thinking
that they may better do it there than be driven
to questionable places by parental sternness.
Parents who really care for their sons well
fare, and boys who are amenable to reason,
will do well seriously to consider certain
facts before going any further.
In the first place, the tobacco used in most
of the manufactured cigarettes is favored
with opium Some of it is made from cigar
stubs picked mp in the streets. bleached,
pressed, favored, and made to initiate good
tobacco.
In the second place, the effect even of
good tobacco. used in moderation, according
to universal medical authority, is to arrest
the vital processes of waste and rebuilding.
After man has attained maturity, this effect
is not always bad, but for growing boy, it is
almost the worst thing that could happen to
him.
Special observations of the effects of to-
bacco on thirty-eight boys from to 10 years
old, have recently been made by DR.. Il. De-
caisne, French physician. With twenty-five
of the boys there was distinct disturbance
of the circulation, with palpitation of the
heart, deficiencies of digestion, sluggishness
of the intellect, and craving for alcoholic
stimulants; in thirteen instances the pulse
was intermittent. Analysis of the blood
showed in eight cases, a notable falling of
in the normal number of red cOrpuscles.
Twelve bows suffered frequently from bleed
ing of the nose. Ten complained of agitated
sleep and constant nightmare. Four boys
had liberated mouths, and one of them con-
tracted consumption effect, DR.. De-
casne believed, of the great deterioration of
the blood, produced by the prolonged and ex
cessive use of tobacco. The younger child
rem showed the more marked symptoms, and
the better-fed children were those that suffered
least Eleven of the boys had smoked for
six months eight for one year, and sixteen
for more than two years. Out ofeleven boys
who were induced to cease smoking, six were
completely restored to normal health after
six months, while the others continued to
suffer slightly for a venr.
These are not the pleadings of an anti to-
bacconist; they are simply facts with which
every bow who learns to smoke must reckon.
There is no use in telling boys that sucking
is a wicked habit. or iBdulging in diatrib
against the practice of those who are addlc-
ted to it. There ought to be some use in eX
planning, to a boy of any reasOnableness, the
natural effects of tobacco on the natural
human body and in showing him why smoking
is much more I'M urious to boys than to men,

The probability that William &. Whit

net of Cleveland as Secretary of the
Treasury, is creating quite breeze among
prominent democrats. There are demo-
Gratis in both Houses of Congress who do
not hesitate to speak out openly against
his selection for the Cabinet. They re-
gard him as an immediate representative
of the Standard Oil Company. and all
that it implies. 1t is common talk among
them that his appointment would do Presi-
dent Cleveland irreparable injury in the

Statistics now being collected by the
Post-office Department concerning the eff
fects of the reduction made year or so
ago on letter postage, indicate that the
service will soon be again on paying
basis. The placing letter postage at two
cents, it is found from the returns for the
last three months of 1884, has tended to
largely decrease the use of postal cards
and proportionately increase the sale of
stamps, so that this latter increase goes
far to compensate for the loss of revenue
consequent upon the reduction. The re-
cent business depression has naturally had
its effect upon the postal sreceipts, but in
spite of this the wisdom of the reduction
of postal rates has already been demon
strated.
