TRUTH ABOUT NICOTINE.
Some Popular Mistakes COrrecte'
by q Physician Who Smokes.

Some Popular Mistakes corrected
by a Physician Who Smokes.
From the New Orleans Times-Democrat
81 don't like to upset a cherished tradi-
tion," said a doctor who is himself de-
votee of the weed, 'but the talk one hears
of nicotine saturating the system Of smokers
Is mostly rot. Nicotine is a deadly poison;
one drop of 1t will make good-sized mastif
turn up his toes, If injected simultaneously,
and it would take precious little Of 1t to kill
a man. The truth Is that very little Is abb
sorbed. even by the most confirmed smokers.
Now and then you read of men who die from
topsy to be literally reeking with nicotine.
All rubbish. Nothing of the kind ever hap
IHned. Again, it's a fayorite experiment to
blow smoke through a handkerchief and the
stain that is produced is popularity supposed
to be made by nicotine. 1t Is really oil of
tobacco, which is horse OF quite different
color. No. the chief harm done by smoking
Is the stimulus which it gives to the heart.
This is particularly true of cigarette smoking,
where 'lnhaling' is nearly always practiced.
Each time the smoke is inhaled ii acts as a
slight spur to the heart and, needless to say,
there is sure to be a reaction. If the smoker
is in good general health he will probably
never feel it, but II he isn't there will be
periods of profound depression and not know
ing the cause he is apt to try to brace up on
a drink which makes matters just that much
worse. If he has organic heart trouble-a
valvular weakness, l mean-it's quite pos
sble that he will tumble over some day and
put his angel plumage on. Those are the
cold facts about smoking-none other is gen.
uine."

MONEY DIDN'T COUNT.

He Would Take No Chances, Even
for a GoOdly Fortune.
From the Washington STAR
A lawyer had come all the way from
California to pay $4,000 legacy over
to Uncle Jerry Hopefeld, who had liv-
ed ali his life in a little town in Ohio.
and after breakfast two or three Of us
were invited to go along and witness
the transfer When we reached the
mouse Uncle Jerry was tightening IN
the hoops on the rain barrel, while his
Wife had gone to see q sick neighbor.
They had been fully identified the day
before as the proper parties, and now
the lawyer said:
We'll, Uncle Jerry, 1 want to hand
you that money and get a receipt and
be off this morning"
I'm kinder busy, just now" said the
old man, as he stopped hammering for
a moment.
eyes. but 1 have $4,000 here for You.
l don't believe there's a man in the
world who wouldn't stop work long
enough to sign a receipt for such a
fortune"
''Mebbe not, but it looks like rain.
and L want to git this bar'l fixed right
away. Can't you come over in about
an hour?'
Look here, man, but did you ever
see $4,000 in all your life?" asked the
lawyer, as he opened the satchel and
backs.
mo, 1 never did," replied Uncle Jer-
ry, as he pounded away.
Did you ever have $1,000 of your
own?"
Lands, no."
Never had a hundred all at once,
did you?"
Never. Durn that hoop, but it don't
want to go ony'
Il must ask you to get this business
over as soon as possible" continued
the lawyer, as the old man kept at his
work
"But it's going to rain"
Yes, but hers your money!
And I've got to get this bari fix
cit won't take over ten minutes to
AK up our business. Run along and
fetch your wife"
See here said Uncle Jerry, as he
laid down his hammer and wiped the
back of his neck, Marian has gone
over to Blodgetts to be gone an hour.
Before she went she said must tinker
up this rain bar'l.'
"But can't you stop your tinkering to
handle $4,000 in cold CASH. exclaimed
the lawyer in indignant tones.
yes, yes, l kin stop work; but what
about Mariar?"
"Well, what about herr"
why, she'd come home expectin'
this bar'l to be all tinkered up, and
if she found it wasn't, them $4,000
wouldn't hold her no more'n a tow
string would hold a boss. She'd jest
shove me clean down among the cab
bages, and jump on the bar'l with both
feet and squash it all to squash, and
fur the next week I'd hev to walk
around on tiptoe and eat my meals in

the bbood-statned stairs, down which
weaver was led, with blood pouring
from cuts about his head, visited the
room where the fight took place, and

WOOL FROM PINE TREES.

New Industry About to Be Launch
ed In the State of Oregon.
From the San Francisco Examiner.
Most men would as soon think Of
gathering figs off thistles as wool off
pine trees, yet that Is just what the
promoters Of a new Oregon industry
propose to do. Mr.. and Mrs. D. A.
Cords are establishing a plant at
Grants Pass for the manufacture of
pine needles into q fabric very like
wooden cloth. It has been carried on
in Europe for years, but never before
has 1t occurred to any one that In the
forest of Oregon is better material and
more Of 1t for the manufacture Of pine
wool than any place else in the world.
Mr. and Mrs. Cords are enthusiasts,
but are practical-minded withal, and
do not propose to start in on too large
a scale. They intend first to make
material of the consistency Of excel
sior for mattresses, after that they will
manufacture the cotton which is used
for undertaking, bandages and other
purposes where a soft and pliable fab
ric is required. Only the inner fabric
Of the needles can be used for the lat
ter, and the process is expensive, but
no more so than that Of the manufac-
ture of lambs wool
Mrs. Cords is familiar with the pro-
cess Of manufacturing fabrics from
pine needles in Germany and France,
and in a visit to Oregon something
more than year ago it occurred to
her that the pine trees here were bet
ter suited TO the process Of manufac-
turing than those OF the continent. A
little investigation convinced her that
it would be worth while to try the ex-
pertinent, and, with the assistance of
her husband, she started small fac
tory at Grants Pass. Machinery Of
the proper kind was not to be had,
and it was necessary to send to Eu-
rope for it. This caused a delay, and
when the machinery arrived it proved
useless.

Assistant Secretary Allen Reports
on the Cost Thereof.
WASHINGTON, Nov PA clear.
concise and businesslike statement of
50 much of the operations of the navy
department during the war, as related
to the procurement and care Of ships
and generally to the material. is pro-
vided IL the annual report OF Assistant
Secretary Allen, just made public.
Among other duties the assistant sec
rotary was charged with the procure
ment Of vessels for the auxiliary navy.
He says that this work was managed
with the utmost care, not only as to the
quality Of the ships, but also to the
price paid, and he commends the in
telligence and fidelity Of the board,
headed by Capt. Rodgers, which in
spected the vessels purchased. He de-
clares that in making the purchases of
vessels the same care for the govern
ment'S interests on the financial side
was exercised as would be the case
with private case, with an effort in
every instance to make the best bar
gain possible. In numerous instances
the department. paid very much less
than the price asked for ships, and in
some cases less than the price recon-
mended by the inspection board. In
the beginning Mr.. Allen says, 1t was
possible that prices were higher than
could have been secured If it had been
practicable to wait for competition.
But true economy and the best inter-
ests of the government made 1T the cor
rect policy to pay a higher price for
vessel when her services were vitality
needed rather than suffer the govern
ment's interests to be jeopardized by
waiting for a lower price. In leaving
this branch of his report he refers with
pleasure to the generous patriotism Of
the friends Of the government, in its
time of need, naming Mr.. F. August
Schernlerhorn and Mr.. w. r. Hearst,
who had offered to the government
their private yachts, Free Lance and
Buccaneer, respectively.
The organization of the naval force
as we'll as the purchase of the ships
was conducted by the assistant secre-
tary's Office, and the report shows that
on this account but $720,639 was ex-
pended out Of the appropriation OF 49,

possible to hep a feeling Of anxiety. Although
we ought not to be surprised that we are be-

have increased Is per cent. Great Britains
