0ir Thomas Fraser's timely sugges-
don for regulating the issue Of tobac'
co to our troops In the feld brings to
mind the drastic action Of the duke
Of WELLINGTON, when. as commander In
chief. he desired to stop not only the
abuse but the use Of the weed he de-
tested. The following general order
was issued:
THE commander In chief has been
Informed that the practice Of smoking,
By the use of pipes. cigars and
cheroots, has become prevalent among
the officers Of the army, which Is not
only In Itself q species OF intoxication
occasioned by the fumes Of tobacco
but undoubtedly occasions drinking
and fippling by those who acquire the
habit; and he entreats the officers
commanding regiments TO prevent
smoking In the messrooms Of their sew
sral regiments, and In the adjoining
apartments, and TO discourage the
practice among the officers Of junior
rank In their regiments"
1t was not, II remember Alright, I'M

the Queens Guard at st. James was
absolved from the duty Of signing n
report to the effect that no smoking
