TOBACCO FOR BOYS

In the Philadelphia Medical Journal
OF October Z, is a rather lengthy and
rather too technical article under the
caption: rs the Use of Tobacco Detri-
mental to Mankind?" The caption does
not exactly Mt the article, since the
latter is restricted to its effects upon
the life and health of human beings
who consume il. 1t may be readily adj
mitted that tobacco consumed by men
is detrimental to the consumers and
TO their offspring; yet tobacco, in the
last summing up might be-indeed
would he-found to be beneficial to
mankind. II has many uses in which
It serves man proftably-as a destroy
er OF parasites upon useful products Of
the soil, for instance. The article
states that tobacco is hostile to all
forms of life, and enumerates its dele
terious effects upon consumers. One
authority quoted is emphatic in the
conclusion that smoking is more dele
terious than chewing or snuff-taking.
The author Of the article states
"As to the composition OF tobacco
smoke, numerous investigations have
been made. Kissling, expert
menting on cigars, found that
large proportion Of the
nicotine passes unaltered into the
smoke" over So per cent. OF the nieo-
tine. in cigar was recovered from the
smoke. Destructive distillauon, as
well as combustion, occurs in burning
cigar or cigarette or in a pipe This
distillation produces various sub
stances-ammonia and ayelIow and very
poisonous substance. called nicotianin
In the burning all OF the oxygen in the
air drawn through the fire is consumed
The worst effects are found follow
ing use of cigarettes, although nothing
serious is attributed TO the paper with
which the tobacco is wrapped. II is
asserted that in the schools the evil
effects Of the cigarette are very and dis
tressingly manifest, and. mildly, that
'non-smokers get on better than
smokers, the latter showing laziness
and less intelligence" without taking
into consideration the bad effects upon
health.
It is impossible to cover the whole
Of the article. which is an able and
careful paper. It's conclusions are Sc
rious. and it is a strong effort to stay
the use OF tobacco by boys and youths.
The author Dr. T. II. Marble. does not
present his paper for reformatory pur-
poses, but as a scientific treatise; but
in effect II is cry for suppression OF
the cigarette. Use OF tobacco by the
young, Dr. Marble concludes. is rapidly
deteriorating the race. so far as the
use extends. Tobacco, used by the
immature. the authorities presented
say. stunts the growth, injuries the
health and enfeebles the intellect.

Brooklyn has discovered that it has

feiters who have succeeded in putting

OF dollars in spurious half dollar silver
coins. The report continues: They
are made OF silver Of the standard fine
ness and correct weight stamped in
close imitation OF the genuine, and
have the same value as bullion that the
genuine coin has. These are the fea-
lures which make the counterfeit so
dangerous. With silver at the present
price the coiners can afford to put in

handsome profit" Alas, poor Brook
