I credit for tfce T. 17 « no part or < m: M •&r Thty Killed My Fkp» At one of oar seaside resorts last Aug- •Ht a warm attachment sprank op be. twees a lad (4 thirteen and a young man "W v. no had one® bceu famous Yale half-back. The college man i seldom without hie cigarette, to the, it distress of the boy. " Don't smoke 'em," he pleaded again and again, and all inquiries into his objection to cigar­ ettes got the same answer, "They killed my pnpn," Tt vrae true, too. The boy's yoting and talented father had weak longs, which the cigarette poison had weakened still more until consumption found him an [easy prey. Ill our large cities there are a great many "cigar-butt grubbers," as they are called. It beftatBly is pot a pretty name, though very appropriate, for it is ap­ plied to boyB and pi/lewho scorn* the streets in search of half-burnt cigars and •tabs, which are dried and then sold to be used in making cigarettes. \ Bat this is not all, nor even the wont of it. "Havana flavoring," wluch is used lor making some cigarettes, is imported by the thousand barrels. This flavoring $8 made from the tonka bean, which con­ tain^ ^ deadly poison. The wrappers are sometimee made of common paper, and sometimes of the ragmen's filthy pickings bleached white. Think of this, boys, the next time you pick up a cigarette, and drop it as yon would a coal of fire. The latter would nmply burn your fingers; the cigarette barns up good health, good memories and good faculties. A bright boy of fourteen took to cigar­ ette smoking. He grew stupid and sub­ ject to nervous twitchings, until finally he was obliged to give up his studies Tke family placed all the blame of his tradition on his cigarette habit, and when asked why he did not give up smok­ ing entirely, he said he had often tried to, bat could not. "Does cigarette smoking injure the longs?" asked some one of a leading Mew York physician. For his answer the doctor lighted a cigarette, and, inhaling A mouthful of smoke, blew it through a corner of his handkerchief, which he held tightly over his month. A dark brown •tain was distinctly visible. "Just such a stain/' Baid the doctor, "is left upon the lungs." If you ever smoke another cigarette, think of the stain you are Making. F. L.
