many surprising things have been re-
ported, has recently been improved In
France In q way to render II more
generally useful. Two inflammable
gases must be employed. One is re-
Quired TO keep the metal at a high tenn

"ir1 we becoming a cigaret ~nation?"
asks the United States Tobacco Jour
nal. This query is prompted by the
statistics OF the cigar and cigaret in
dustries for the first three months OF
The year. The figures show that the
output Of cigarets In that period ex-
ceeded by more than so, 900, 900 the out
put Of cigars. The figures are respec-
lively. 1856, 1868. 22S and 1877, 1922, 81. In
March alone there was a decrease Of
more than 5000, 600 in full sized cigars
throughout the United States and an
Increase Of more than 100, 600, 600 In Gig
arets. 1t is unexplained whether this
condition is a result of the high prices
Of food, compelling the cigar smoker to
take to cigarets, or is a burning pro-
test against the legislation in many
states against the paper rolls.
