THE CIGARETTE HABIT

Physicians the other day gave eX
cessive smoking of cigarettes as one
Of the causes Of the violent acts of
Young man who attacked his mother
with razor. This happened in ST.
Louis. The recent Investigations Of the
London Lancet receive peculiar peril
nence from the incident.
1t may be little hard on some con
yentional notions of cigarettes and
tobacco in general TO hear that this
medical Journal declares, first, that
clgarettes-at least those consumed in
England-are not "drugged, and, sec
ondly, that if they did contain the
adulterants commonly believed to be
employed, their harmfulness would
not be increased Not less startling is
the I.ancets statement that the
cheaper grades Of cigarettes and to-
bacco are not more injurious than the
better qualities.
According to the Lancet, a series
f analyses proved that the poorest
grades of cigarettes are manufactured
from tobacco altogether as pure as
hat used in cigars of the most eX-
pensive varieties, and that there Is no
difference in their respective effects
on the human system.
The Lancet condemns the use OF
tobacco in any form by youth, and
pleads for a more temperate indul
gence In the weed by persons old and
Young. The sensible basis of this posi-
ion is in the knowledge that if to-
bacco did NJ physical or mental In
