their smoke has induced the Wurzburg
hygienist, Prof. X. b. Lehman, to in
vestigate the. charge. He has found that
the amount of this compound produced
depends somewhat on the rate at which
the tobacco Is smoked. The slower the
current OF air through a cigar the small
er is the amount of prussic acid formed.
The entire amount found, however is too
small to account for the effects So far
the burden of the blame for the i'll effects
OF smoking would appear to rest on
nicotin. Investigations made by the Lon
don Lancet indicate that the ordinary
cheap cigarette contains the least nico-
tin in the smoke and the pipe the most,
the cigar occupying an intermediate po-
sition. Assuming, then, that nicotin is
the essentially injurious substance in
tobacco, the cigaret would appear to be
the least harmful form, provided that
the amount of tobacco consumed was no
greater in this form than in others.
The general impression, however, is
that cigaret -smoking is the most perni-
cious form of Indulgence in tobacco. This
might be accounted for in part by the
facts that the form of the cigarer makes
1t possible for young persons to indulge
in 1t when they would not smoke cigars
or pipes, that in older persons it lends
itself to overindulgence and that the
smoke may be inhaled with less irrita-
tion and, therefore, that more of the
products may be absorbed into the sys-
tenn. Further investigations indicate
that the most injurious forms of smok-
ing are not those in which nlcor,n pre-
walls but those in which there is a larg-
er proportion of furfural. Furfural is
about fifty times as poisonous as ordin-
airy alcohol. There is a PROBABILITY that
the least harmful tobacco will turn out
to be that which yields minimum of
furfural in the smoke. Although the
amount of nicotin present in the cheaper
grades OF cigarets is practically negli-
gible, the amount of furfural appears to
be sufficient in itself to account for the
bad effects attributed to cigaret-smok-
ing. The use of tobacco in its various
forms is 50 general that the subject is
of almost universal interest. The Jour-
nal of the American Medical Association
thinks that the smoker is entitled to
know the dangers and the safest me-
thods of using tobacco, while educators
and all who have anything to do with
the young, whether by example or by
precept, will appreciate scientific facts
with which to back up wise deductions
from experience.

New Evidence On Tobacco Question

The consideration of tobacco and its
dangers has heretofore been largely bas
ed on the amount of nicotin contained
in the smoke. But there are other pro,
ducts Of tobacco which must share the
responsibility. Among these are carbon
monoxid gas, prussic acid, furfural and
some others. Although all of these COM
pounds admittedly are poisonous, their
danger depends ON the quantities in
which they are taken. Recently investi-
cations have been made of some of these
toxic products, and the results are of
considerable interest. The fact that the
action of certain kinds Of tobacco has
been attributed to the prussic acid in
