TOBACCO'S VALUE.
A Medical Authority Says It Is Sec
ond ONLY to Food. -

tLondOn Cor Chicago Times HeraId)
Some highly interesting remarks on
the use of tobacco in active service are
made by the Lancet this week. My
lady nicotine" is not classed as food,
as alcohol has been by scientific inves-
tigators, but it is held that tobacco has
a value second only to food.
IF they did not forbid it's use says
the Lancet. at any rate the Iron
Dukes officers were directed to advise
their mea strongly against it. What e
curious contrast with campaigning in
South Africa, where marches and pri-
vations as long and stern as any suf-
fered by our great-grandfathers were
borne By our volunteers and soldiers
today with a grumble only when their
smokes failed them,
We have it from many who took
part III the forced marches leading to
Paardeberg, BIoemfontein, Pretoria and
beyond, when ratious were but two or
three biscuits a day. that the only ply
steal content in each twenty-fOur hours
came with the pipe smoked by the
smouldering embeTS Of the campfire.
This pipe eased the way to sleep
that might otherwise have fingered or
been delayed by the sheer bodily IA
ugue and mental restIessness caused by
prolonged mon0tonOus exertion.
1t IS difficult then. TO believe that
tobacco is anything but a real help to
men who are suffering long Iabors and
receiving little food.
Probably the way in which it helps
Is by quieting cerebratiOn. for no one
doubts its sedative qualities, thus al
lowing more easily the sleep which is
50 aH-important when semi-staTvation
has to be endured.
Cases OF acute mental derangement
IN the course of campaigns such as the
present are many. There have, indeed,
been many in South Africa, and we are
inclined TO believe that. used with MOD
GRAFTON. tobacco is of value second only
70 food Itself when long privations and
exertions have TO be endured.

LIVING COSTLY IN CUBA.
Military Officers Find Tt Difficult to
Make Both Ends Meet.
CIV ashington Sta


When General Leonard Wood was in
Washington he talked very freely about
the conditions in Cuba and save great
ueal OF interesting information. One Of
tEe interesting points he made WAS the
expense which army officers are under.
pointing out that very few officers care
10 serve N Cuba simply because the ex-
penSeS were so great. 1t was, of course
known that ali of the army officers IN
der Spanish regime had various WAYS
OF securing money other than their reg
ular salary allowance It was stated on
good authority before the Spanish war
that every army officer from the can
tain general down to first lieutenant
had a way of securing certain bribes
and rake-Otfs, perquisites which Amer
lean officers never had never will take
and which would no. be compatible
with service in The United States army.
Although General Wood receives a
double salary, that IS s., 800 as major
general OF volunteers and ike amount
from the Cuban revenues as governor
of Cuba, he says that il is more difficult
for him 20 maintain himself in the big
rambling lace at Havana than il
would be il the United States with
much small allowance. The governor
general Is expected to entertain the
captain of every ship that comes into
Cuba and eli of the commercial deIega-
and elsewhere are generally his guests
when they arrive. Some of his best Of
hceTS, he says, have asked to be trans
ferred to other service because they find
their expenses so high that they are un-
able 10 meet them. "They say that
they just can't stand it, and are getting
poorer every month they remain said
General Wood. and / know from per
sOnaI experience that such is the case.
On this account if no other. the Off
