From the New Yort Tobaeoo'

hAblh tiit NcW 1Oft IODaccO
brief review OF the history OF tobacco,
and tho important events connected with
its career since the discovery OF America,
is contained in the following epitome: In
1910 tobacco was smoked in Holland in hol-
low tubes composed Of palm leaves plated
together. In 1916 figure OF the plant
first appeared In Andre Therats "Cosmo-
graphic" In 1856 the English first saw
pipes made Of clay among the natives of
Virginia, which had just been discovered
by Sir Richard Grcenville. Ii appears
likewise, that the English soon fabricated
the first clay pipes in Europe. In $500
Shah Abbas, OF Persia, prohibited the use
OF tobacco in his empire, but the practice
had become 10 deep rooted among the sub
jects, that many OF them fled to the mount
aims, and abandoned everything else to
enjoy the luxury OF smoking. In the be-
ginning OF the seventeenth century they
began TO cultivate tobacco in the East In
dies. In 1904 James !. OF England en-
dcayored, by means Of heavy i'm
ports, 10 abolish the use OF to-
bacco, which he held 90 be n
noxious weed. In 1910 the smoking Of
tobacco was known at Constantinople. To
render the custom ridiculous, a Turk, who
had been iound smoking, was conveyed
about the streets with a Pipe transfixcd
through his nose. In 1918 tobacco began
10 be planted about Anncrfort, in Hol-
land, which afterward became famous for
its cultivation. In 1916 the colonists began
10 cultivate tobacco in Virginia, aud Il
seems 10 have been in use among the In
dams nj the time they were visited by
the English, and was called by them
"Retun" or Return" In 1919 James
the first wrote his ''counterblast Of tobac-
CO." and ordered that no planter In Vir-
ginia should cultivate more than 100
pounds per year. lie also prohibited its
sale in England or Ireland until the Gus
tom should he laid and royal sea
affixed. Twenty thousand pounds
were exported this year from Vir-
ginia 20 England. In 1922 the annual
import Of tobacco into England from
America for the preceding seven years
was Ia, 0S5 pounds. In 1884 a tribunal
called the Chamber Of Tobacco WIS formed
at Moscow, which prohibited smoking un-
der pain OF having the noec slit. In 1859
\ the grand assembly Of Virginia passed n
law that all tobacco planted In that and
succeeding years should be destroyed, ex-
cept such portion 10 each planter n
should make in the whole 10000 pounds,
and that the curators Of the planters
should receive forty pounds for every 100
pounds due them.
In 1853 smoking began In the canton Of
Apcngcll, In Switzerland A. fnt the
children ran after those who smoked in
the streets. They were Likewise cited be
fore tho council and punished, and tho
innkcepen were ordered to inform against
such ms should smoke In their houses. In
1901 the police regulations ~ Beme,
Switzerland, were made, which was d.
vided according to the ten command
ments. In Il the prohibition 10 smoke
tobacco stands under the rulsic, thou
shalt not commit adultery" and was con-
iinued in force until the middle Of the
last century.
