HOW 1T WORKED.
Wihe's scheme to Cure Her HusbanA
of Excessive Smoking.

! Wihe's scheme to Cure Her HusbanA
| of Excessive Smoking.
She read about it in the back Of
magazine. The advertisement said that
| It was tasteless. that it could be adj.
ministered in the breakfast coffee and
that it would cure the most confirmed
! smoker of the tobacco habit without
his knowledge.
To be sure Elmer smoked only three
| or four cigars a day. Still, why should
he smoke at all? She didn't.
So she wrote for the cure. and in due
time it arrived in a plain sealed pack
| age with full instructions inside.
Unfortunately it arrived before she
was up. Elmer opened it, smiled to
himself, sealed 1t up again and said
, nothing.
The next morning she gave him his
first dose.
This coffee has bitter taste, hasn't
it?'' he asked
"YOur stomach must be out Of Or
der" she answered. 1T tastes all right
to me-"
Strange"
That night he brought home large
new box of cigars. Usually after din
ner he smoked once, but that night he
smoked all the evening. The atmOs-
phere was thick.
The second morning he complained
again about the coffees bitterness.
well, no wonder your taste is out of
order" she said reproachfully, ''consid-
ering how you smoked last night"
1--WE had the most remarkable crav-
Ing for tobacco lately" he muttered.
And at dusk he brought home a cost
" meerschaum pipe and pound Of
Cavendish and, shutting himself up in
the library, smoked like a forest fire
until bedtime.
Hadn't we better change the coffee?
Surely you must have noticed its odd
taste" he said on the third morning.
mo, l haven't noticed it." she an
swered family.
He brought home from the city in the
evening huge tin box Of Egyptian
cigarettes, hOokah and a jar of Turk
ish tobacco.
II never enjoyed smoking as I've
done lately" he explained. II can't
keep a cigar out of my mouth"
And that night he smoked cigars and
cigarettes, meerschaum and hookah till
he saw her rise and hurry, with vim
dictive look, to the kitchen.
Following ON tiptOe, he saw her I'M
lock drawer, take out a bottle that he
knew and pour it's contents into the
sink He chuchled.
And thereafter he complained no
more about the coffee and his tobacco
appetite shrunk back to its normal
proportions.-Chi ord-Herald.
