the subject in my store, yesterday led
to curious bet.

could smoke three ordinary cigars in
halt an hour, and bystander remarked

the cigar was to be consumed IN steady
consecutive pulls aud not removed
from the lips until burned to a mark,

Colorado Maduro in color, was selected
for the test and the smoker took seat
and began.
HE pulled like an engine for ABOUT
two minutes and accumulated some
thing under half an Inch of ash, and
then he began to wobble. He lifted
the cigar from side to side, pulled slow
and fast, and seemed to have difficulty
in getting his breath between draws.
At any rate he kept moving his head
to avoid the smoke and finally got to
coughing. I could see he was in tor
ture. but he stuck to it until he got
within half an inch OF the mark. Then
he jumped up suddenly, threw the
cigar away and walked out OF the store.
/ paid the bet and charged it to his
account, and he told me last night
that the very idea of tobacco made
him sick. It is not unlikely that the

BILE for anybody to smoke even mod
eratefy strong cigar through In the
