Tragic but True

"You smoke thirty cigarettes
a day."
Eyes, on the average.
"You don't blame them for
your rundown condition?"
mot in the least. I blame my
hard work"
The physician shook his head.
He smiled in a vexed way.
Then he took a leech out of a
glass jar.
LET me show you some
thing" he said, Bare your
arm,"
The cigarette: smoker barred
his pale arm and the other laid
the lean, black leech upon it.
The leech fell to work busily.
Its body began to swell. Then
all of a sudden a Kind of shudder
convulsed it, and it fell to the
floor dead.
THAT is what your Blood did
to that leech,'' said the physi-
clan. He took up the little
corpse between his finger and
thumb. Look at it," he said.
"Quite dead, you see. You
poisoned it,"
81 guess it wasn't a healthy
leech in, the first place." said
the cigarette smoker, sullenly.
Wasn't healthy, eh? Well,
We'll try again.
And the physician cIapped two
leeches on the young mans thin
arm.
IF they both, die" said the
patient ..I,ll swear o5aor, at
least, Tn cut down my daily al
lowstse from thirty to ten"
Even is he;spoke the smaller
leeeh shiversd and, dropbed on
his knee dead, and. a p,ament
later the larger one fell Pesideit.
This Is ghastly," said the
young man. II am worse than
the pestilence to those leeches. Z"
1T is the einpyreumatic oil
in your blood,'', said the medical
man. "All cigarette smokers
have it"
Doctor, said the. young man
regarding the three dead leeches
thoughtfully, II half believe
you're right. Home Herald.
