Tobacco smoke and the Blood.

Two or three mouthfuls of tobacco
smoke from n cigarette We're shaken up
with ii few drops OF blood t,iilted With
water in n bottle. Almost Immediately
the blood assumed the pink color char
acteriStic of blood containing monoNide
gas, and further observations With the
spectroscope confirmed the presence in
the blood of carbon nonoXid". Similar
~ a few moUthiJlS of smoke from
pipe and cigar We're tried. and the re-
suits We're even more marked. In this
experiment we have some explanation
In particular of the evil effects of ciga-
rette smoking. for it is chiefly cigarette
smoke that is inhaled. an Indulgence by
which the poisonous carbon monoXide
is introduced directly into the blood.
This effect of tobacco smoke upon the
blood appears to us to be of consider.
