Why should a man put an en-
envy in his mouth to steal away his
brains?' l presume that refers to
booze, but why should man put an
enemy in his mouth that will not only
appropriate his brains, but embeZZle
his heart and lungs, as well, be-
sides painting his liver yellow and
making his mouth taste like the potion

self agree exactly upon this cigarette
question, and we are going to make a
united effort to stamp out this terrible
curse that is making suckers of our
young men, and brainleSS dudes of our

has ever done him up. This is mis-

half his size went to the Grand to gel
