for the death of Gen. L. $. Grant and
mis- son, Gen. F. d. Grant. The usual
process seems to the the appearance
on sores, caused by the smoking. and
then the appearance of cancer in these
sores. Pipe smoking is regarded bv
DIR. Able as particularly dangerous
because the burning of the tongue by
the hot smoke from the pipe stem
makes a spot peculiarly inviting to the
seeds of cancer.
The doctor disclaims any intention
to condemn smoking absolutely. He
