CIGARETTES BAD IN WAR
BY DR.. w. A. Evans

Parkinson and Koef0d. the former from
London and the latter from Harvard, are
not certain that it, is 4 good plan to send
cigarettes TO soldiers,
In any war many soldiers give out be-
cause they become breathless on eXer-
ton. Some have pains around the heart
some have palpitation, ara others suffer
from swimming in the head Since TINS
war began a great many have been in
valued on account of these symptoms.
How many have been killed because
Germans they we're Winded. there is no
way Of knowing How many have fallen
because III a p RCh they did not have that
extra ounce If endurance which meant
run for the money is purely a matter CT
speculation.
When soldiers with these symptoms
have been invaded for heart disease the
examiners have usually failed to find or

ard they have entered the inValldS as D.

Parkinson studied the acute effects Of
smoking cigarettes on some of these
cases. and only on group of healthy
young men They did not concern them
selves with the question of the chronic
effects of prolonged smoking Each sub

test. The amount Of tobacco consumed

after the first cigaret was well under

preston in the region Of the heart, pal

say: THE wind can apparently be adj
versely affected by smoking even with
out inhaling.
The conclusions are ::"These observa-
tions show that in health the smoking
usually raises the pulse rate and blood
pressure perceptibly. and these effects are
a little more pronounced in cases of sol
der's heart. Moreover, the smoking of
a few cigaretts can render healthy men
more breathless on exertiOn. and mani
testify does SO in large proportion of
these patients.
Excessive cigarett smoking is not the
essential cause in most cases of soldiers

ant contributory factor in the breathless-
ness and precordial pain of many OF
them"

cHEMIN DIES DANES.

In silks and satins the ladies went
Where the breezes sighed. and the pop
lars bent,
Taking the air of a Sunday morn
Midst the red of popies and the gold Of
corn
F'lowery ladies' in gold brocades,
With negro pages and serving maids,
In scarlet coach or in gilt sedan,
With brooch and buckle and flounce
and fan.
Patch and powder and trailing scent,
Under the trees the ladies vent
Lovely ladies that cleaned and glowed
AS they took the air on the Ladies'
road
Boom of thunder and lightning flash
The torn earth rocks to the barrage
crash;
The bullets whine and the bullets sing
From the mad machine guns chatter
ing;
Black smoke rolling across the mud,
Trenches plastered with flesh and blood
The blue ranks lock with the ranks of
gray
Stab and stagger and sob and sway:
The living cringe from the shrapnel
bursts,
The dying moan of their burning
thirsts,
Moan and die in the gulping slough
Moan and die in the gulping slough
Where are the butterfly ladies now?

Oh, it's not the pack that you carry on

Nor the Springfield on your SHOULDER,
Nor the five-inch crust of khaki colored

That makes you think you're growing

That drives away your SMILE
Nor the socks of sisters. that raise the
blooming blisters,
It's the last. long mile.

raine, considered one Of the weak stick
ers on the Paris club. There was a CON
sultation on the Frenchmen's bench
over the matter of putting in a pinch

Lorraine work out his own salvation in
view of the fact that he already had
made two hits off Johnson in the game.
