About Women Smokino.

Washington.-Just now there Is
crusade against the smoking OF
cigarettes by women. The fact that
society women have taken up this
solace is considered an evidence that
our present social course is leading
the way to decay. Yet the only thing
that is new about the smoking OF
cigarettes by women is the protest
against 1t.

smoke corncob pipe. Probably
Abraham Lincoln's mother did, too.
