ENGLISH WOMEN USE
STRONG CIGARETS,
REVEAL
Increase of Emotional Women
Laid to Excessive Use
of Weed.

LONDON. Sept 2s.-Is the ciga-
ret habit threatening the degen-
Grafton OF English womanhood?
This question is heing debated
by medical authorities Of England,
who are becoming alarmed at the
startling increase in the cigaret
habit among women.
Highly emotional women are be-
coming more and more frequent in
England, and many medical exT erts
blame the cigaret habit They
theorize that the absorption OF nicO-
tine produces a condition OF nerv-
Gus distress and that from this
there proceed palpitations and ex-
haustion, with frequent outbursts
Of emotion. In rare cases this may
lead 10 mental disability, the doc
tors say. and they point out that
woman's delicate nervous organiza-
ton Is not intended TO endure large
doses of nicotine poisoning and
that the functions OF a mother must
be interfered with when the smok-
ing habit is INDUCED in to excess.
Custom Growing
The English woman has taken 10
the cigaret with a vengeance. and
smoking among women is general
" accepted. In fact, English women
laugh at American ideas and Gus
toms frowing upon the female
smoker. The war Is blamed, as
usual, many women arguing that
under the stress of war they had to
find relief for their frayed nerves,
and they took TO cigarets. The
final result has been that English
women now smoke in all public
places with perfect propriety. 1t is
quite the usual thing TO see a rich
" and handsomely gowned woman
sitting in a box at the theater sir
ping her after-dinner cup of coffee
and putting away furiously at her
cigaret. Nor is IL unusual to see
women strutting up and down fash
