W a Q

! There are many important questions before the people of our country today, yet all sink into insignifcance before the all absorbing question "the cigaret- te and the boy" How we can get our boys to put aside this injuri- ous habit, and become clean and manly is a problem we would all like to have solved.
 All are awake to the evils of cigarette smoking, and strenuous efforts are being made to put 1t down. We have legislation on the subject that will prove very ef- fective; for while man cannot be prohibited from smoking, yet the manufacture and sale can be so restricted that it will be very difficult to procure cigarettes. The only way to stop the evil al- together is by educating public sentiment. A boy must be taken when he is young and made to know that tobacco is an injurious thing to take into the system, and so educated on the subject that he never will begin.
 Scientific instruction in our schools would prove of great bene- fit, and would result in the say ing of hundreds of bright boys. Small boys are great imitators. and like to do things which they see elders ones do, and in this way many acquire the habit while quite young. If these little ones are taught the nature and effects of cigarettes both at home anG al school, they will then know 1t is not nice but rather harmful to smoke, and knowing this will be forearmed to such an extent that they will never take up the hab- 1t.
 "Tis we'll known fact that the evil effects of cigarettes are not confined to the physical man, but likewise attack the moral nature. Giving way to one bad habit weakens the will power to such an extent that a boy will easily yield to other foes. Cigarettes are the first step toward drinking, and the boy who follows it long will find himself going rapidly dowdWard.
 Many avenues of profitable en- ployment are closed to the cigar cite smokers, and 'tis only a mat ter of time until he will find the business world closed to him al- together. Railroads and business men want boys with the clear brain and strong nerves which the cigarette smoker does not have.
 To the thoughtful and earnest this traffic n boys has grown tO alarming proportions, and par ents must get to work at once and stay it's growth. Try to save those who have already acquired the habit: but let your greatest and principa Work be confined to those young boys wEo are just beginning. Show them the evlls of smoking, anG ap .)eal to their manhood in time for after awhile such an appeal will be in vain.
 recently heard a boy in his teens compliment himself upoa the fact that he had not smoked a cigarette in twenty four hours. Perhaps he would like to stop al- together. but the habit has such a firm grasp upon him that such
