THE ONLY GIRL"

"The Only Girl" one of the most
successful musical comedies Of the
season, will be the attraction We'd
nesday night at the Grand. The story
concerns the doings of young au
thor who is a successful writer for
the musical comedy stage. but who is
a confirmed woman hater. He has
three boon companions whom he be-
ieves also share his dislike for the
feminine sex, and he is Mortified when
each of them in turn breaks the dire
news that he is going to enter the
holy bonds Of wedlock, each declaring
that he himself has discovered the
particular and only girl. The young
librettist considers himself immune
from the Establishments Of the fair
sex, but when he is obliged to call In
the services of q young woman to
collaborate on the book Of q new
musical comedy which he Is writing,
he, too, falls before the dart of cupid.

1t corresponds in the mode and in
tensity of its action to prusslc acid
Dr. H. Sterling Pomeroy, a physi-
clan of 80 years experience with to-
bacco, tells us some things that tobac-
co is not. He says it is not food or
substitute for food; it is not water;
it is not safe stimulant or a desira-
does not assist the body in its effort
to obtain proper air, sleep and exer-
else, but rather binders it.
AS in whiskey, coffee and many
other substances, there is an active
principle which is the damaging
agent. In tobacco this is nicotine. A
chemist soaked out the nicotine or a
part of it from the tobacco equivalent
to one cigarette and injected part
|! of it under the skin of a cat. The cat
Immediately went into convulsions
and died in Is minutes. Other in
stances similar to this could be given.
Evidently, all other considerations
laid aside, it is a dangerous thing to
deal with.
DR.. Pomeroy outlines the way in
which the cigarette works upon the
boy:
l. Initiates lining of mouth,
throat and lungs.
2. Weakens nerves that control the
heart.
3. Makes the stomach more active
in secreting.
4. The boy soon finds it difficult to
sleep enough.
5. He becomes disinclined to exert
himself
6. The intellect suffers.
T. The morals are injured
Some of the topics that DR.. Pome-
roy treats and others in connection
will be treated in the articles that
follow.
