GOOD FOR SMOKERS.
Juices OF the Fruit Is Said to De-
strOy the Effects of the
Nicotine.

did YOU ever notice. asked a we'll
known uptown physician the other day,
according to a Philadelphia report, that
men who eat oranges are not much in
iured by smoking? 1t is a fact. Orange
Juice has the faculty of neutralizing
nicotine, and that is the reason. | have
seen men weakened and even made i'll
by excessive smoking, and a few oranges
were all that was necessary to straightep
them out.
Cali this pother about the injurious
effects of cigarette smoking wearies
me-" he continued. 81 don't mean to
say that they are not injurious to boys
any kind of smoking is, for that mat
ter. But those who put up a hue and
cry against cigarettes say that it is the
paper that is at fault. That is all non
sense. 1t is the inhalation OF the nico-
tine laden smoke that causes the trouble.
You don't inhale cigar smoke, because
it is too strong. But if you did you
would find that the injury inflicted by
cigarettes is r~idiculously slight COM
pared with it. | have smoked cigarettes
for 20 years, and look at me. l eat

Bis employees altogether, reports the
New York Sun.
In the year before there were only
1,071 1869 railroad employees, and the av-
rage was only 54S for every hundred
miles of line, so that independently of
the increase in mileage the number of
workers employed has increased 46 for
each hundred miles of line.
Since these statistics were collected
there has been a correspondingly large
increase in the number of employees, if
railroad statistics are to be believed, so
that the number of men on the railroad
payroll in this country is considerably
over a million and a quarter.
The good times and the extension i'm
provements set on foot by the railroad
companies as the result of their pros
perity are responsible for this increase
in employment. Eight years ago the
number of railroad workers was only
~ for every hundred miles. so that
Mould a return to that standard be pos
ible it would mean the laying off of
BIZ, 900 workers, to say nothing of the
~tonsequent reduction in the wage
standards.
