There were 1898, S97.7S5 cigars of all

year. They cost all prices from the sto-
gle at three for n nickel to the two for
Il quarter. If all the cigars consumed
during the year We're laid from end to
end they would circle the earth at the
equator twenty-five times.
If they were laid in a pile 100 feet
square. they would reach a height of FIVE
and one-third miles and would weigh
20S2 tons.
If they were all made by hand it would
require 3,199,359 cigarmakers to make
them and all the smokers would have to
smoke three cigars each day in the year
to consume them.
Every time the clock ticks during the
twenty-four hours of each day there are
2041 cigars sold.
To light the cigars it requires 20.S64-
3D. boxes of matches which are COM

of sulphur and birthstone.
At fifty cigars to Il box it required
