EFFECTS OF TEA SMOKING.
Serious Nervous Complaints Are Brought
On by the Habit.

Serious Nervous Complaints Are Brought
On by the Habit.
Physicians and specialists on nervous
troubles are treating numerous cases of
extreme insomnia and nervousness in
young women who come to them for
treatment without disclosing to them
that their condition is the result of
practicing the new vice of smoking tea
cigarettes.
The habit is increasing. From OBJ
servations of its effects a West side
physician declares to the Sunday Press
that "a tea cigarette is a genuine brain
excitant. Anyone who uses it, and yet
does not work with her brain, would
go half crazy with nervousness, but
with those who do brain work it is
different, for the stimulus produces
strange intellectual activity.
"After couple of green tea cigar
cites poem, for instance, will almost
write itself, 1 am told by one of my
literary patients. The effect of the tea
cigarette, while stimulating the brain
and it's flow of thought, acts as pure
sedative to the rest of the body, quieting
restlessness, uneasiness or actual pains.
The after effects are bad if they have
not been worked off by unusual men
tal work.
"At some houses green tea cigarettes
are handed round after dinner, and /
know three actresses of considerable
reputation who give tea smoking par
ties twice a week. Ft4
Zone woman, to break off this habit,
on which she had expended nearly ten
dollars a week. has lately voluntarily
placed herself under private restraint.
She had concealed her habit from her
husband by using an artfully contrived
cigarette case. 1t resembled bunch
of keys, each key containing one cigar
cite.
$50 much has the habit spread that
several tobacconists and druggists are
keeping tea cigarettes in stock for reg
ular customers.
1.-THE active chemical principle of tea
Is theme, just as caffeine is of coffee
and nicotine of tobacco. When theme
is administered to frog or small ami
NAL it is found that it chiefly influences
sensation, which caffeine or coffee does
not. In larger doses theme produces
spontaneous spasms or commissions,
which caffeine does not do. This is.
in fact, the ultimate effect of smoking
numerous tea cigarettes, finally pro
ducIng fits or commissions.
"Theine also acts as local anesthetic
quieting painful nerves. Green tea con.
tains much more theme than ordinary
black tea. So you can see that the habit
of smoking tea cigarettes is terribly
pernicious."-N. Y. Press.

We are often won't to think that in
these days of scientifically trained de-
signers there is less of the cut-and-try in
constructive mechanics and more of
scientific proportioning, but there are
some glazing examples of the very op-
posite. Everyone can remember the
fearfully and wonderfully distorted
shapes of the earlier bicycles; and one
has only to pick up an old catalogue or
glance through. the advertising pages
of any of the leading magazines of a
few years ago to be reminded of the
outrageous defiance of all rules, me-
chanical and artistic, which those We
hicles exhibited. One can scarcely be-
lieve that any attempt whatever. was
made to ascertain the forces or analyzc
the. strains upon either frame or driv-
ing gear, and the present light and stiff
frames and carefully proportioned pro-
polling gear are the result of many
trials and failures-a survival of the
fittest" rather than an evidence of de-
sign" 1t is difficult to avoid the con-
clusion that large sum of money and
q vast amount of human energy might
have been saved had just little knowl-
edge of mechanical design been infused
into those early efforts, and. indeed,
there are wheels now on the market
making claims for superiority upon
points which, to the engineer, are OBJ
vious mechanical defects, SO that the
cut-and-try stage cannot yet be con-
sidered as altogether past.-Cassier's

While hundreds of pilgrims daily
crowd the shrine of Mount Vernon, one
of the most interesting relics of Wash
ington remains unknown and un.

used by Washington when a young
man, engaged in surveying the lands OF
upper Virginia. The house is located
in Clark county, the district being
formed in 1880 from Frederick, and
named for the -illustrious general,
George Clarke, of early days. Near
Berryville, in Clarke county, Gen. Dan

built handsome home, which he called
Soldiers Rest" About 200 yards from
the site of this manor is located tho
cabin, which is regarded with almost
religious veneration by the people OF
the neighborhood, and which is being
slowly eaten by the tooth of time The
house is IL feet square, and there are
but two rooms, one on the ground floor
and one for a garnet. Beneath the build
ing flows, or rather, did flow, during
the last century, a small stream, which
was used for cooling purposes. The up

Gladness Comes

With . better understanding of the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
zeal ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle cfforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort In
the knowledge, that SO many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi.
ton Of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
" removes. That Is why it Is the only
remedy with millions Of families, and is
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is tho
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which 1t acts It IL therefore
. ali important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you purs
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system Is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. II
afflicted with any actual disease, ono
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but If in need of q laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and Is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

Dnnger in wedding Rice.


The custom OF showering rice upon
aewly-married couples has been popu-
lar for years. 1t may be absurd, but il
furnishes plenty of fun-for the we'd
ding guests. 1t now appears however
that the practice is dangerous. This is
shown in the case of young woman
who was married in Bridgeport, Conn,
the other day. Friends threw great
quantities of rice at the bride and the
groom, and soon after the bride com
planned of pain in one of her ears. 1t
grew rapidly worse, and by the time
New York was reached the young wom-
an was almost frantic. A physician was
secured and he soon found u kernel of
rice in the ear, which when removed
caused the pain to disappear. Still, this
is only one case. Thousands and thou
sands of brides and grooms have been
showered, but no information is at
hand of trouble cf a serious nature re-
sulting from the practice. Those good
people who will use this Bridgeport in
cident as an argument against rice
throwing will likely have their trouble
for their pains. Customs are not so
easily broken up when once estab-
lished

lanky man wound himself up to his full

can get into one of your berths when l
