Out on the south portico Of the White

the president of the United States en-
loving a post -prandial cigar. While not
an inyeterate smoker, the president en-
ioys a small sized medium grade cigar.
Rarely a week passes that he Is not the

Secretary Porter is not slighted, eth

uuence is neither the president nor him

ration day.
Many knotty point in politics and
diplomacy is worked out on the White

used as sort of presidential workshop.

ing to any great extent, although in
spirations were still taking place.
Professor Morrow believes that the
profound change in the breathing may
be attributed with reason to the fact
of the various impulses which usually
come from the nerves being cut off from
the center. The result was that the
nerves We're only stimulated to action in
an imperfect way by impure blood. The
cutting off of all possible ner-
vous impulses from the nerve
centers causes the respiration to
become extraordinarily slow, and
this makes ech individual breathe
deeper. These deep breaths are un-
doubtedly due to the stimulation OF the
center by the blood.
Experiments similar to those of which
the rabbits were made subjects were
next tried on dogs. Only one tracing is
shown herewith of the result, and tha'
is figure 6. Professor Morrow says that
the dog experiments were really among
the first performed, and in his inexpe-
rience he waited too long before taking
the second tracing. This explains why
the tracing or chart Figure g. does not
show that stage in tobacco poisoning
where the breathing becomes quicker. 1t
does indicate plainly enough, however,
the final and characteristic stages of
slow and failing breath, with deep, gasp
ing inspirations.
From these experiments the following
conclusions were reached:
First-Tobacco stimulates the nervous
system in all cases and in every instance
the smoker sacrifices certain portion
of nervous vitality to compensate for
the stimulus thus received.
Second-Nicotine poisoning seems to
act principally upon the respiratory or
breathing center, eventually paralyzing
the expiratory division of it, that which
expels the breath from the lungs, and
renders the whole center insenSitive to
many nervous impulses.
Third-The gasping inspiration which
sometimes seizes us and is often given
the name of spasmodic asthma, is the
result of tobacco poisoning. the effect of
the nicotine upon the respiratory CEN
ters.
Further investigation of the question
has shown that while all the facts stated
concerning the effect of nicotine upon
the nervous system are true, 1t lies with
the smoker in measure. to, by his man
ner of life, offset or nullify the effect
of tobacco poisoning. A man of phleg-
matte, easy going disposition can smoke
heavily without receiving great harm,
while a highly nervous person who
smokes to the same extent is liable to
injure his health in a great degree. AS
a rule a man who is much in the open
air and takes sufficient exercise will ex-
perience no i'll effects from smoking,
while a man who leads sedentary life
may suffer much.
Tobacco would appear, after tolerance
has been established, to be stimulant
TO the heart and the curious combination
of a stimulant and a sedative to the
nerves AS matter of fact, the smoker
only imagines that he is being soothed.
1t is the effect of tobacco upon the nerve
centers and the imparting of the stimu-
lus thus received to the nerves of the
brain that gives man the idea that the
inhaling of tobacco smoke soothes.

I've read and I've read and I've read,
Ger hundreds of books have pored,
But give me the book that reads as If 1t
Was writ with the point of sword.
Inks all very well in its way,
But I don't want ink any more;
The book that l want is one that's been
writ
With the grewsomely gurgling gore.
And while am fond of my sleep.
My mods and my maps I'll forsake
For the tale that is warranted night after

And muskets and cannon and sabres and

Some time ago Manager Wardlow of the
telegraph office in Brazil took telegram
which read:
Miss -, will you be mine?"
It was delivered to the proper party, and
soon she came tripping into the office to
wire her reply. 1t read:
"Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
Yes. Yes. Yes"
Ten words, you see, and she paid her
quarter. and then tripped out of the room
