A JUDICIAL OPINION OF CIGARETTES

The following article, which recently
appeared in a Kansas newspaper, gives
the opinion of Police R. A. Campbell,
of Wichita, Kansas, who, by reason of
his daily opportunity to study this ques-
tion, ought to be in position to give a
practical opinion on the subject. The
article is printed just as it originally
appeared.
"Cigarettes did it. That is the rea-
son that 90 per cent of our lodgers are
out of job," said Police Judge r. A.
Campbell, of Wichita, recently.
''The police department has been
keeping a record of the men who do
and do not smoke cigarettes that apply
here for lodging for the night and out
of the last Is cases, there were but
three who did not smoke cigarettes.
"The majority of thousands of these
bore the tell-tale stained fingers of the
fend.
"All told the same story, the employees
of railroads or street-railways were laid
off = they said it was because they were
the youngest men in point of service,
but their hands all bore the stain of the
habitual cigarette smoker. It is a sad
sight to be confronted by these men who
cannot hold job because they are the
victims of this habit. Some of the men
admitted of quitting cigarettes and US
ing dope. In all cases they were knock
ed completely out by this practice.
81 have had railroad brakemen and
switchmen, firemen and other railroad
employees stand before me in the morn
ing after spending a night in the city
jail because they were out of work and
to a man they were cigarette smokers.
Telephone men and electricians are the
same way. / have had bridge carpen-
ters tell me that they were discharged
for no other reason than that they smok-
ed cigarettes.
eff this indictment against the to-
bacco evil is still insufficient to convince
you that you should give up the habit,
it may be well to remember that 70
per cent of the jobless and destitute men
who seek aid from public charities are
tobacco users; that nearly all drunkards,
opium, morphine and cocaine victims
are inveterate users of the weed, and
that 90 per cent of the criminals in our
jails and penitentiaries are enslaved by
the tobacco habit

THE INNOCENT" CIGARETTE

Danger, Me-, was burned down by
smoker, also Coney Island-loss ST.
100000. Fires causing the loss of over
$1OO,OOO,0O0 per year and several thou
sand lives can be traced to smoking.
The shirt-waist factory was burned be-
cause of a smoker; loss 146 innocent
victims
"Wherever fire cannot be explained,
look for a smoker with cheap and
guilty look" NeaU York World.
"A youth of fourteen, after smoking
for tooth-ache" says DR.. Drahen, "Fell
down suddenly and died the same day"
CDR. M. Lauden of France says, 1T is
the appalling testimony of a college of
physicians, that twenty thousand per-
sons in our land die annually from to-
bacco poison
"A member of one of the largest to-
bacco firms in St. Louis said recently
that tobacco kills more men than al
cohol."
When manufacturers themselves say
this, is it not time for Christian men to
sound the alarm!
DR.. James Copeland says, '"Tobacco
weakens the nervous powers, favors a
dreamy imaginative, and imbecile state
of mind, produces Incidence and inca
pacity for manly or continuous exer-
tion, and sinks it's votary into a state
of maudlin inactivity and selfish enjoy
ment of vice."
Professor L. G.. Cause, writes: "The
intellect becomes duller and duller, until
at last it is painful to make any intellec-
tual effort, and we sink into sensuous
or sensual animal. Anyone who would

INHALING SMOKE LEADS TO LIQUOF
HABIT

BY Charles L. Hamilton, M. D.
Superintendent Kelley Institute and
Vice-President Illinois State Sunday
School Association.
'Our experience here at Dwight, Ills,
where many hundreds of cigarette
cases have been treated, is that persons
applying for treatment for both liquor
and cigarettes, dread giving up their
cigarettes more than they do the liquor.
"Moreover, those who return to the
use of cigarettes in after life are almost
certain to resume the use of liquor to al
lay the irritability on the nervous sys-
tenn produced by tobacco smoke inhala-
ton"
