Is Tobacco a Drug2

An interesting case Of splitting
hairs has arisen in Ireland in the
administration of the national insur-
ance act as to whether tobacco is a
drug, a necessity or luxury, all three
views being taken by different authori-
ties, says London Tit-Bits. 1t appears
that the experimenting medical Off
Ger Of the Dublin district recommend
ed that consumptive patient coming
under the provisions of the act be
given tobacco for smoking to comfort
him in his last days, offering to pay
for the weed himself, but the insur-
ance committee decided that the to-
bacco was necessary to the patients
treatment and sent in the bill to the
later the local authorities received
lengthy communication demanding an
explanation of their action in charging
the government with a shilling's worth
of tobacco. Their reply was that to-
bacco was recognized as a drug in the
British codex under the title of nico.
tiana tabacium and that it had been
prescribed by registered practitioner.
Thereupon the commissioners consult
ed learned K. C.'s and they are still
wrestling with the subject Mean
while the patient is dead, the tobacco
has been smoked and the expense of
the disputation has already reached
hundred times the cost of the original
tin Of shag.
