Sonic Advice to Follow If They Mart
I'm- the Weed.
Very few people arc aware how much
harm is done to young men by the al
most universal habit of cigarette smok
ing. Tho man who smokes cigarettes
has one always in his mouth and Is con
tinually inhaling nicotine until the sys
tem Is saturated with the poison.
The result of this practice is a ca
tarrhal condition of the nose, throat
nnd bronchi, a disordered and very ir
ritable state of the nerves, a weak and
rapid action of the heart and indiges
tion. Thin, anaemic, weak, with clammy
hands ssVned with nicotine poison, un
strung nerves and degenerated mus
cles, the youth of the land go on Igno
rantly suffering the consequences of a
pernicious habit until attacks of heart
trouble, nervous prostration, melan
cholia, etc., bring their condition to the
attention of the physician.
If a man must smoke and we admit
the charm of the habit to those who
have become accustomed to Its sooth
ing Influences let him choose a mild
cigar and have certain set times for In
dulging. If he puts a certain restraint
upon himself from the start in the mat
ter of smoking, he will not overdo it,
nnd there are few men who can smoke
more than three cigars a day without
Injury. Medical Brief.
Conger Arrives In Mexico City.
Mexico City, Juno 5. Edwin H.
Conger, the new American ambassa
dor, arrived from California. He was
met at the railway station by Senor
Tomes Rivas, introducer of ambassa
dors. Officers of the Society of the
American colony went in a body to
the ambassador's hotel to welcomo
him. The official presentation will
take place shortly. The ambassador
is In good health.
Submarines Were Used.
London, June 7. The correspondent
at Tokio of tho Dally Telegraph says:
"It Is officially stated that submarines
actually were used in the Tsu straits
battle. It transpires that after the
Russian battleship Orel surrendered
some Russian officers and sailors tried
to blow up the vessel. The Japanese
discovered the attempt and eight of
the ringleaders were shot."
