Get It Out of Your System.

A reader says he has been quite
a heavy smoker for many years. and
now at the age of 80 he has decided
to quit. He would like to know what
| would suggest to get it out of his
system.
This idea of getting nicotine or al
cohol or their associated poiSons out
of fhe system is akin to getting a
snsppy bit of repartee off ones
chest. I mean 10 imply that both ex-
PreSSions are rather figurative. So
far as ] can learn. there Is nothing
in the way of poison left in a
mans system more than A day or two
after he has taken A dose of to-
hacco. Nor is there any known
poison left in A mans system more
than few hours after he has taken
his last dose of alcohol. There is
enough damage done by tobacco or
alcohol TO keep a man out of health
months or years or for a lifetime
after he has finally discontinued the
habit. The popular idea that there
is something which one can get out
of his system and so remove all eff
fects of the chronic poisoning from
tobacco or alcohol. is probably fos-
tered by the various secret or semi
secret cures" for these habits. In
telligent medical treatment is usually
necessary in the cure of alcoholism
and sometimes a help in the cure of
toba ccoism, but 50 far as | am aware
such treatment does not get anything
in particular out of the patients sys-
tenn. There IS nothing in particular
in his system to he driven out The
only poiSOnS the secret or Semi-Secret
alcoholism can possibly drive out of
the drunkard's system are the poisons
contained in the alleged cures
themselves, and the cathartics and
emetics commonly administered in
such cures" are not certain to get
all the poisons out of the system at
that.
Several years ago ] endeav vored to
outline in letter a regimen for the
tobacco user who would overcome the
habit and recover as much health as
possible. ! do not know whether
this regimen is of particular value.
though great many former victims
of the habit have assured me that it
cured them. 1t is very common
thing for tobacco user to discon-
tinue smoking merely on his own and
without any special aid at ALL How
