The Cigarette Smoker.

Ebert Hubbard isn't the best
authority in the world on all SUBJ
Jects, but he is unquestionably cor
rect in pronouncing against the use
Of cigarettes. especially by the
young. In late number of the
Philistine he says:
"As a close observer and
employer of labor for over twenty
five years, ! give you this: Never
advance the pay Of cigarette
smoker; never promote him; never
trust him to carry a roll to Garcia,
unless you do not care for Gaacia
and are willing to lose the roll.
Cigarette smoking begins with an
effort to be smart. 1t soon be-
comes a pleasure, a satisfaction,
and serves to bridge over moment
Of nervousness or embarrassment.
Next it becomes necessity of life,
a fixed habit. This last stage soon
evolves into a third condition, a
stage Of fever and unrestful,
wandering mind, accompanied by
loss of moral and mental CONTROL
Inevitably cigarette smoking inn
pairs health, lessons usefulness and
jeopardizes hsppiness, and all with
out compensation worthy Of the
name. All smokers are not affected
to the same degree, but there is
none who would not be better off
without the habit.
