WHY MOUTHS ARE oEEoRMEr
Smokers Are Not Careful Selecting
Pipes

lipoA
Physicians throughout tho country
generally have been called upon to
treat large number OF cases OF spltho-
leoma OF the lips. This dlsagreeable
complaint is charged almost entirely
10 the pipe-smoklng habit Some sur
geona are Of the opinion that the lmi-
tation OF amber used In the manufae-
turo OF mouthpioces for cheap pipes
has much to do with the alarming In
crease In the disease. while all Of them
agree that the majority OF eases are
directly traceable to the short clay
pipes smoked by thousands OF labor
ers. The hospital records show that
over 80 per cent OF all the cases treated
were laboring men over 40 years OF
age. The heat brought close to tho
lips by the short-stemmed clay pipes
causes a small blister to form. and the
smoker promptly picks Il and 'keeps
on smoking. Then hard, knotty
wart forms where the blister first APP
peared, and soon the whole mudth is
involved and sometimes the tongue
swells to enormous size. The warty
growths multiply until the chin is en-
tirely covered and the mouth protrudes
far beyond the nose, The surgeons
cut away the entire growth and fash
ion an entirely new mouth out OF flaps
drawn from the checks aud so much
OF the chin as may remain unaffected
The operation Is one OF extreme deli
cacy, and when properly executed the
patient Is inflicted with FISH mouth. %
that gives a very funny expression to
the face
