traces of the weed may be removed
from their breath before the following
evening. Some of the beauty shops
have operators whose duty It is to re-
move cigarette stains from the fingers
of their patrons.
That women smoke cigarettes to no
small extent is proven by the presence
on the counters of the department
stores of complete cigarette smoking
outfits. There are dainty little hand
painted ash trays and match boxes;
silver scissors and holders. the latter
designed to prevent the fingers of the
smokers from becoming stained. Also
there are cigarette boxes made espe-
cially to hold the small. tightly rolled
Mexican cigarettes, which are the
kind used largely by women. In one
of the State street stores the young
woman behind the counter in which
these things were displayed said that
business seldom was dull in her de-
partment.
The physicians of Chicago rapidly
are learning that women smoke cigar
cites to to an extent that is none too
good for their health. Some of those
women who have called in physician
to treat them for certain nervous NAL
aides have been indignant when the
same physician ordered them to give
up cigarettes. Always they deny that
they have used tobacco in any form.
but the doctors say that excessive
cigarette smoking never fails to leave
its peculiar effect on the heart action.
and that they seldom are deceived by
those who try to make them believe
they never smoke.
Over on the west side are several
small cigarette shops which cater
especially to women. The brand of
coffin nails" made by them differs
materially from those smoked by men.
They are longer and not SO thick. On
one end is a mouthpsece of hardened
paper to prevent the tobacco from
coming in actual contact with the lips.
None OF the downtown dealers could
estimate. in figures. the extent of the
habit They all agreed that most Of
the feminine smokers were women Of
the fashionable world and that the
passion for cigarettes is on the in
crease. Because the cigarettes con-
sumed by the women seldom are
bought directly by them there is no
way of telling. the dealers say, just
how many women are taken with the
habit.

Chicago.-The cigarette habit is
growing in popularity among Chicago
women. This is vouched for by the to-
bacco dealers. the beauty doctors. the
hairdressers and by certain physi-
clans. The tobacco dealers, who ought
to know. say they did not realize. un-
til few weeks ago. the extent to
which the cigarette craze had spread
among women. How they did learn 1t
was through the scare that was caused
by the announcement that after a GER
tain datR cigarettes could not be sold
legally in Illinois.

Out in 18th Round at Day

Baltimore, May 4.-Young COrbett
was knocked OUT in the 18th round of
his fight with Kid Sullivan last night.
In the 10th round he had gone down
for a count of eight and had come up
doubled with pain and hardly able to
stand. Yet he had stalled it out to the
gong and faced his victorious opponent
without sign of fiinching in the 18th.
Before storm of body and jaw
blows he went through the ropes, stag
gered around the stage, sought refuge
in his own corner TO be given a cold
water spray, and, finally. unable to
withstand the punishment, was knock
ed through the ropes down the stage,
stretched on his back, face upward,
completely gone.

Dayton Gymnastic club. The fight was
| scheduled for a 20-round affair, but
| Schreck outfought and outgeneraled
his opponent from start to finish.
Ross fought an uphill battle from
| first to last, and took enough punish
ment to put out several ordinary men.
In the 10th he evaded knockout by
cleverly blocking and stalling, and
came back as strong as ever for the
next two rounds. In the 18th a right
hook to the jaw sent him down for a
count of seven, and when he arose,
groggy, Schreck found it easy to put
on the finishing touches
