TO KEEP MEN FROM SPLITTING.
Indiana State Board of Health Issues
Remarkable Circular.

From the st. Louis Gobc-DemoCrat.
If the state board of health carries out
its idea, there is going to be less splitting
done in the state of Indiana Than there is
at present The board is the inveterate
enemy of the man who spits, and proposes
to pursue him with all the weapons that
law will permit it to use. 1t will issue to-
morrow, a circular letter to I'll railroad Of
ficials in Indiana asking hem to have
elected from their trains every man who
spits that is. if he spits persis."ntly. after
being warned not to-
In its circular the board explains that
sputum' is an excrement, full of the
germs of la grippe. nasal catarrn and
whole train of minor ills 1t also adds the
information that splitting is a Nasty and
unnecessary habit" and that women do
not" 1t explains that the state board of
health will pass a rule against splitting.
which will have all the force of law if the
railroads will only post 1t up and do their
best to enforce it. With a stroke of Der-
sistence, the board adds:
When the rule is first published in each
county, and when posted in public places,
this board WILL of course, be loudly abused
as foolish impracticable and iiioric At
tention then being gained. we will publish
In every county reasons for the action"

Egyptian Tree Planting,

Systematic efforts have been made in
different parts of the world to introduo e
a growth of trees where they had never
been known. from which important results
have followed in many instances. Egypt,

days during the year. has, since having
planted trees on an extensive scale, already
attained about five times that number Six
teen square miles of the swampy. UNI

was planted with thousands of trees, espe-

trees have drained the land so as to de-

into a healthy country with fine forests.
Biscay law requires that for every tree cut

Now. Capt. Jones. in telling me this story
himself confessed that he never could with
stand a woman's tears. and this woman, de-
spicable she was, yet had made him in
love with her charms. So, suddenly, i'm
pulsive as he was in such affairs, Capt.
Jones took the letter from his pocket and
tore 1t into pieces.

men. though l confess they are vastly more
dangerous. 1 believe it's a brave mans
part to use no force against a woman ere

less than the dirt under his Feet"
And, turning on his heel, he left her.

said that no one in Paris ever had from
him the true version of this adventure, and

said, for brave man to fight a woman.

MISTAKE ABOUT HAVANA CIGARS.
The Light and Mild Precisely the
Same the Dark.

From the Philadelphia Record.
The truth is the so-called light. mild"
cigar is milder i'm essentials than that
of dark brown color, for the filler is of
the same grade of tobacco. and in many
cases is, in point of fact. apt 10 be of a
heavier. stronger grade. The natural color
of a genuine Havana cigar of superior
grade is dark brown. dull and heavy This
cigar is found very fragrant and highly
Favored. and is not necessarily a bit
stronger than a much lighter cigar with
| wrapper cut green and dried out to a whit
ism yellow hue.
Such statements will be vouched for
dare say, by every cigar maker in this
country or in Cuba: They laugh in their
sleeves at the Americans and their light
cigar fad. In Inc meantime the better
grades of cigars are being sent to other
countries where such fad does not pre-
vail. There is all the difference i'm the
world between the American and the En-
glishman in their tastes for cigars. The
American hurries along through life call
ing for a cigar mere today and there to-
morrow. not caring much about the price
however high ii may be-only seeking to
find a mild light looking cigar. The En-
glishman is different. He goes into a store
and finds, after careful investigation. the
brand that suits him and orders a quantity
of them. and they run of high grade

other. So cautious is he that he keeps tn.

1t is quite common thing with many of
the leading clubs OF English cities to send

the tobacco harvest certain crops which are
found of rare quality. This tobacco is
turned over to the best cigar factories, and
the clubs are supplied with the very best
cigars that could be pure chased at much less
cost than the same grade cigar would be

clubs are. several smokers clubs which
