TOBACCO SMOKING.
Those Who Ind ulee in Smoking are Infer
Tor in Mental Ability.

Those Who Indulee in Smoking are Infer
iOr in Mental Ability.
Dr. Seaver, of Yale College, is waging
war upon the habit of tobacco smoking
which some of the students there indulge
in. He is the physician of the college
and the professor of athletics, a. man of
science who follows scientific methods
in any investigation be may undertake.
He has been engaged for eight years in
observing the effects of Understanding
upon the bodies and minds of the Yale
students, and he has just published re-
markable budget of statistics. Dr. Seaver
informs the public that the students of
7 ale who indulge in tobacco-smoking are
inferior IN physical yigor and mental abil-
lty to those who do not. According to
has reckoning, the smokers have less lung
power than the anti smokers; they have
less chest Initiating capacity; they are of
less bodily weight, and they are even of
less height. The muscular and mel vous
power of the smoking students is notably
and noticeably less than that of the anti
smoking. From an athletic point of view,
therefore, the Yale professor of athletics
considers himself justified in waging war
upon the tobacco habit. Not only in a
physical way, but also in an intellectual
way, the Yale smokers are inferior to the
anti smo kers. The smoking habit is dis
advantageous to scholarship Of course
students who, within a given time, have
received junior appointments above dis
certations, only five per cent were smok-
ers, and very few smokers received ap-
pointments If any kind. 1t would seem,
therefore, that the brain power of the
smokers at Yale are far inferior to those
of the anti-smokers. The demonstrations
of DR.. Seaver appear to be influencing the
Yale mind. He is able to report that
seventy per cent. of the senior class in the
college do not smoke, and that not single
candidate for tie rowing crew is
smoker.
Young America, athletic, intellectual,
and ethical, can ruminate upon the Yale
statistics collected by DR.. Seaver.
