HEREDITARY EFFECTS OF TO.
BACCO.
(Written for the Palladium
by J. NJ. tt

AS quoted from an eminent medical
works in previous article, the tissues
of the tobacco-user are found to be
principles of the weed, by treating
them with potassium, the peculiar Cd
or of tobacco is freely given off. The
protoplasm or living matter, the essen
tial element of organic growth and de-
velopment in all living things from the
least to the greatest, as well as the
primal cause of all functional action
and efficiency; this marvellous plastic
living matter forms the nuclues of cen
trail life-activity Of every cell, tissue,
and structure of the living body; it is
exceedingly active in cellproliferation
forming all the various and varied
tissues, structures, and organs making
up the systematic living body during
the developing stage of infant life.
This primordial protoplasmic begin
ming of life is furnished by the par
ents, and as the fountain cannot raise
higher than the fountain head, so, al
so the man or woman cannot posi-
bly, transcend in physical and mental
prowess the utmost limits of it's pro-
toplasmic heredity; notwithstanding
the most favorable environments of
education and culture. which may up
lift the individual much above the
parental capabilities, yet the stern
unrelenting inevitable law of heredi-
ty proclaims, Thus Far and No Far
ther!"
We resemble our parents just the
same internally as externally. And
why? Because the very warp and weft
of primal life-beginning is the poten-
tial furnished by parents. While sci
ence now knows that heredity does
not mean a direct transference of dis
ease of "taints of blood effects of
doubt, and sins of WILL" from parents
to offspring, and that euthenics or en-
vironments and education have very
much to do with evil eugenics or here
dity, but that it is simply a physical
impossibility to transcend the eternal
and inevitable law; Thou shalt bow
down thyself unto them (habit-form-
ing drugs) nor serve them becoming
la narcomaniac); for l, Jehovah thy
God (of thy health and efficiency, am
a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of
the fathers physiological violations,
sins against the body, defiling the
temple of Cod upon the children, and
upon the third and upon the fourth
generation of them that hate me" (and
my physiological laws, right-living

Deuteronomy, 5, 9. The parentheses
are ours.
Should anyone care to investigate
this most important subject of here
