While a good cigar, used temperate
ly, may be smoked by the average
adult man to good advantage, exces-
sive indulgence in smoking is very
harmful. The chief effects of smoking
are from the nicotine and empyreu-
matte Oil; the first is very active
poison,-and the latter, which is the
rank accumulation in the stem of the
pipe, is also potent poison, one drop
on the tongue of cat having been IA
tai. The nicotine and the oil both act
on the nervous system, the nicotine
paralyzing the heart by its action on
the brain, while the oil confines itself
chiefly to the spinal cord and the mo-
tor nerves. 1t will thus be seen that
no part of the victims equipment es-
capes the deadly effect of tobacco used
In excess.

CONFERS DEGREE ON
NORTH POLE LOCATOR

COPENHAGEN Sept 9.-The de-
gree of doctor honoris causa was con-
ferred upon DR.. Frederick A. Cook by
the University of Copenhagen this
afternoon in the presence of the crown
prince of Denmark and a distinguished
gathering.
Professor Torp, rector of the Uni
versity of Copenhagen, in presenting
the diploma to Doctor Cook, declared
that the news that another explorer
had solved the same problem could in
no way detract from the honor due
Doctor Cook.
In expressing his thanks, Doctor
Cook said he accepted the honor as
testimony of the genuineness of his
journey. He promised to send the uni
versity his complete records, and he
repeated that il was his intention to
dispatch a ship to Greenland at his
own expense to bring down the two
Eskimos who accompanied him on his
expedition.

pole. but believes Peary did so. He
said today:
According to Doctor Cooks own
account, he started practically from
Etah, from the north end of Baffin bay.
Thence, he said. he travelled westward,
crossing EIlesmere island and thence
presumably northward between Hell
berg and Ellesmere islands and thence
northward over the ice to the pole
Peary probably carried the steamer
Roosevelt to a point at or near the
north coast of Ellesmere island From
the ship he probably established pro-
vision depots as far north as possible
and which would serve as reserves
to be drawn upon on the return trip.
Doctor Cook asserts he followed a
route involving journey of hundreds
or miles before he reached point
opposite the north end of Ellesmere
island. presumably opposite the point
to which Peary carried his ship"
