SAYS QUIT sMokiNG';
| PATIENT PAYS $4,000

Chicago, nlinois.-'Stop smoking!"
was the terse prescription for which a
Chicago physician collected a fee of
81, ,000-the largest price ever paid
for such minimum of medical ad-
vice. This case is the answer of DR..
w. A. Evans, Chicagos health com
mission, to the Illinois puzZle-'is
tobacco injurious?' When the adyo-
Gates of the noniniurious theory at
tempt to scuttle the new anti-cigarette
law Miss Lucy Page CASTOR and the
other enthusiasts will see to it that
that the man who paid the $4,000
speaks his answer in loud voice.
DR.. Charles p Pinckard is the ply
sician who received the unusual fee.
He refused last night to disclose the
name of his patient, who is still liv-
ing. His home is in Clinton, la, and
he is considered one of the wealthiest
men in the state.
The open season for cigarette smok-
ers in Illinois is scheduled to start
July /, 1907, after which merry village
constables and heavy-footed city
cops" will be free to pounce upon
disciples of the paper tubes and hale
them before the nearest bar of justice.
Chicago has already stopped licens-
ing dealers at 800 per year to retail
the dope sticks" The city law de-
partment, however, is loath to reln-
quish this source of a $4,000 annual
revenue. and Corporation Counsel
Brundage says that the anti-cigarette
statute which characterizes tobacco
as an Injurious substance" can be
defeated on the contention that to-
bacco is not injurious.
The story of the two-word prescrip-
tion, which brought $4,000, has been
carefully cherished by the Chicago
physicians for years. but the public
was not taken into their confidence.
DR.. Pinckard's patient came to Chi
cago IN 1900. His vision had been
reduced to one-fifth normal, and,
though he had travelled to specialists
all over the world his eyes were grow
ing worse. He told of the treatments,
and DR.. Pinckard decided that the
only untried diagnosis was amblyopia,
tobacco blindness.
stop smoking" ne said to the man.
In few months the patient wrote
that he was cured, and the physician.
after computing the value of sight to
a man of his wealth, sent a bill for
$4,000. 1t was paid. Since then the
man has started smoking again, but
in moderation.

Yet wouldn't it be fun?"
And thus he argued TO himself
Until Temptation won.
He made dash and gulped it down,
The hook then pricked him sore;
He fought he sqirmed, he tugged and
jumped,
Then landed on the shore.
Inside a basket he was thrown,
And, as he gasping lay,
A Froggie who had known him well
Peeked in and stopped to say:
you silly foolish, greedy Fish,
Why did you gulp that bait?
Twas nothing but a rigged-up sham
To bring you to this Fate"
The Trout looked up in helplessness
And answered, full of woe,
