May Cost a Life to Find Out
By Experiment

The heart of every user of tobaeco
1ears double burden. 1t does its al
lotted task and then fights nicotine
for supremacy. As long as the heart
wins he lives; when it loses he dies, but
before the final victory of nicotine
you pass through many stages of de-
cline and decay and suffer many pangs
Hearts are like human beings-some
are stronger than others, therefore
some hearts will stand more tobacco
han others, but there is limit to
what any heart can stand. The man
who puts this additional strain on his
heart dozen times a day by smoking
cigarettes, pipe or eigars-or chew
ing tobacco--is taking madman s
hance with health and life to lose
and nothing to win but the chance that
he may lose them He is indulging in
costly habit at the expense of pre-
cious health Ask any doctor anywhere,
and he will tell you that using tobacco
is injurious and that it is far better to
quit the habit than to experiment to
find out how much tobacco Vour heart
will stand without serious results.
But the thought of quitting is un-
pleasant to most men-even to those
who know that tobacco Injuries them
and to really quit takes more win pow
er than they have and causes more
suffering than they can voluntarily en-
dure. To quit the habit, make it easy

To Sims the important effort of the war was COOP

President Taft found it necessary to reprimand him
years ago for his bood is thicker than water British

Sims disgust and his carpng criticism of his superiors
and their management of the war;
Sims, who fought sea battles, denounces decora-

sea- condemns recognition of those who were Sims who
saw no sea service would reserve decorations for those
