Dark Smoke Nc FUN

Funny thing about smoking! If g
man were compelled to puff good
cigar with his eyes shut the operation
would lose it's zest A man who had
undergone a slight operation upon one
of his eyes had to stay in a darkenec
room for week with his optics ban
daged. After a few days hig doctor told
HIM he could take q gentle smoke If
he liked. He jumped az the chance,
and to his amazement found it afford
ed not the slightest pleasure. To be
sure, men often smoke in the dark,
hut there's always the rosy glow OF the
lighted end to be seen and the faint
outline of the cloud Of smoke in the
air. There's no more fun Ill signtless
smoke than saltless egg or a kiss
implanted upon your own hand. What
Is the psychology of it?
