;raham SO for selling cigarettes to En-
oil Gaines. a youth under sixteen
ears. Judge PUgh discoursed on the
~rlative strength Of pOiSons.
Cigarettes are causing all the dis
cases.' he said They are much
worse than whisky. and those who
smoke them ought TO 20 back in an
alley and not show themselves on the
Strcets. I would rather take the per-

rOison than one selling cigarettes.
They are worse than opium or hi

fichIoride than cigarettes because one
olson is a lingering death and the
