ABOUT THE MAN WHO SMOKES
He Consumes Much Tobacco, but Not
Nearly as Much as Man
Who Chews.

We smoke more than three times rs
many cigarettes in this country as
cigars, but We burn UP twice as much
tobacco in the cigars as in the ciga-
rettes.
a pound of tobacco will make nearly
six times as many cigarettes as cigars.
So 1t seems that IN man who smokes
only three cigars a day is using the
equivalent of Is cigarettes.
Often we fatter ourselves that the
habit of chewing tobacco is passing
out, it isn't More tobacco is "chewed"
every day than is smoked in the shape
of cigars, "Girardn asserts in the Phil
adelphia Record. Indeed, chewing TO-
baeco weighs almost as much as the
cigars and cigarettes together.
More cigars are maze in Philadelphia
than in any other city on earth, and
our manufacturers are swamped with
work. They are many Millions of
cigars behind In filling orders. Oh, yes,
prices are going up In some directions.
so that it costs more than ever before
to come within the class thus described

smokes thinks like sage and acts
like a Samaritan"

quite still on pillow in front of her,
II small girl dreams of the day when
she will be famous artist. And
these dreams have brought her a new
power or sense. for this little stricken

draws the pictures that are the delight
and pride of the Brooklyn IN. " Hos

Toussaint, the brave little artist is
just fourteen years old. For seven
years, ever since an attack of infantile
paralysis she has been unable to move
her body. But her mind was busy and
her will to become an artist has
caused her TO overcome almost insur-
mountable obstacles.

performer under the big top" died at

week, and from the first doctors
gave up hope. He is survived by his
wife.
Although 1t was his boast that he
earned a fortune making hundreds of
thousands laugh, he died penniless.
OBrien was more than generous. He
never appreciated the value of money
and, although he always earned big
money, he spent it as freely as though
there never was an end to his in
come. No one ever went hungry ar in
need when "Pogey" had dollar. He
had been in the amusement business
since he was a boy of five. when he
played juvenile parts with troupe of
ronto, Canada. At the age of eight he
was featured with the Alec Robinson
circus in a contortion act.
O'Brien was with such old-time cir
Gus organizations as those of Col. j.

Boston, Va; John II. Murrays, Lent
and Murray's, Bob Huntington, Baird
and Howell. O'Brien Brothers, Bard
Brothers, Jones Brothers, Robinson and

across the United States. and twice
toured England with a circus act
Four years ago at Bridgeport, Conn,
O'Brien's right arm was torn by an
escaped ape. Since that time he has
not worked much.
