New York physicians responded for
the women who indulge in the leaf

Surgeon General Cumming said
smoking by women lowered the
morale of the nation and spoiled the
collective complexion.
DR.. Menas b. Gregory, head OF the
Psychopathic ward at Bellevue Hos

specialist, said II did nothing Of tho
sort, and that tea and coffee drinking
was quite as bad as cigarette smok-
ing.
DR.. Gregory said any drug taken
to excess was harmful. Dr. Gold
water said many people were smok-
ing these days because they could
not drink.
Tobacco smoking" he added, "is
not an unmitigated evil in any sense

WHAT is VALUE? An Afri-

for bride. A Hottentot will pay
twice as much for a fat bride as
for one half as fat. With you,
perhaps, 1t would be just the other
way.
The "Hottentot Venus" who
died in Paris many years ago,
and whose exact figure was pre-
served in wax or plaster, in the
museum Of the yARDIN DES

you could see it. Even a descrip-

take up too much space, as the
lady herself does.
Her mother had fed her on
camel's milk, stuffed her with it.
