 However fantastic my particular method of dealing with tbs tohaooo hab- fl may seem on paper it will effect a cure if faithfully carried cut In the frss place, be sure that your pasieni really desires tO break od the hahit of using tobsooo- In the second psneA re- member thas your patient vii react e. oorcing Co the impression your manner
 makes upon his mind If you speAk lightly of your method of treating him. be win hold that method in small e. teem. Therefore. speak inprsesively, and if he smiles at your moans oaerAnai fr0wn him into decent humility.
 Suggestion alone Is not Eufieiens so hold the average tobacco aser, and you will therefore add a material medicine in the shape of--peAnutEi Tea my friend. ludicrous az the idea ssemA thsrs lies in the vulgar pea@t . charm to sap the power of My Lady Nicotine" aaa frse the fsftered slave.
 In all drug habits there srs two ooa- ditions to e0mhat-physicai and men, tai or physiological and psychological l use peanuts to offset the physical cray ing and suggestion to calm the mind
 What is the condition of the user ug tobacco if the weed is withdrawnf It is important to understand thik boosuas there is but a slight variation in one dozen cases from the average
 The condition is one of mental un. rest. some physical sensations and nery- ousuess The withdrawal of tobacco acts as a withdrawal Us . powerful nerve tonic. because this weed, used first as a nerve sedative. becomes hy force of usage a nerve stimuiAnk Les us take tbe mental condition first under consideration. do not tTy tO put Q to- haoco user 70 sleep beoauss it is an un- necessary performance. but give him positive suggestions while be is EittinR opposite me Co the following effect;
 That it will be easy 70 break him of the habit
 That he will not suffer, despite the fact that he has tried to break on pre- viously. but has failed on account of the discomfort ensuing.
 That he is not hero or c being to bs pitied or EympathiEed with. becauss be will not be called upon to display any heroic qualities of endurauASN
 That If be follows directions he will not suffer from nervousness or "Sink- ings" at the sit of the stomach
 That he wlll begin at once Co gain tn weight; that his memory will be sharp CT and more tenacious. and that his di- gestiye organs will regain tone; that his nerves win be as steel, his muscles as iron and his complexion will iose the muddy hue which mars its comelinesA.
 That the habit Is uncleanly-in fact. degrading-and that its gratifcatin entails a gross waste of money. What right has be to literally burn his income when his wife is compelled to wear Q gown that is out of datel
 Thus. then. do prepare the patients mind for the lightness of the task be- fore him, laying special stress upon the fact that ne will at no time oonsider himself an object of compassion or self pity. for if he believe himself to be per forming a deed of DO Em1d heroiGn hs will suffer sgonies. whereas if his abne- gation is ignored and taken as . matter of course he will react accordingly.
 Now. as to the physical symptomA they will be but slight if the above preparation of the mind is properly done and will show themselves in occa- sional pains sbout the region of the heart. sinking at the pit of the stomach, a lassitude. weak and accelerated pulse | and muscular twitchings Nervousness jumping at a sudden noise and irritA- bility of temper will be in evidence, but l will Dc greatly modified by suggestion- |
