H IUhlJH ii it n TWO H WODDELL Auctioneer F1NGHK STAINS Hudson Maxim the leading gun powder and high explosive expert in tbe world recently wrote for the Boy Mag azine his estimation of the cigarette He says The cigarette burns poisonously The smoker of the pipe and cigar finds his injury in the nicotine while the nicotine of the cigarette is far less virulent than the deadly carbouio oxid and other products of its poisonous com bustion The blood of persons poisoned by illuminating gas rich in carbonic oxid is found to be coagulated and indurate ana from the veins and arteries may be pulled into strings Carbonic oxid whijh is found in deadly quantities in the gas from a coal fire J wheu inhaled in small quantities produces faiutness dizziness palpita tion of tho heart and a feeling of great heaviness in the feet and legs These are exactly the effects of the cigarette and the depression and nervousness which follow as a reaction make the victim crave some balm or tonic for his malaise He is then lead to consume the drug in ever increasing quantities The wreath of cigarette smoke which curls about the head of the growing lad holds his brain in an iron grip which prevents it from growing and his mind from developing just as surely as fie tight bandage does the foot of the Chinese girl If all boys could be made to know that with every breath of cigarette smoke they are tapping their arteries as surely and letting their lifes blood out ns surely as if their veins and arteries were severed and that the cigarotte is a maker of invalids criminals and fools not men it ought to deter them some The yellow finger- stain is an emblem of deeper degradation and enslavement than the ball and chain OUR RIGHT TO DESTROY THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC Drunkenness is the most peculiarly economic of all vices A man can gamble and still make money He can live an immoral life and do the same But if he is habitually intoxicated he losses the power of self support and of course the power of providing for his f imily That is one of the reasons why society interferes and has the right to interfere wijb the cu3tom of drinking Another reason is that one who is habitually intoxicated not

treatment upon the raemners of his o vn family and frequently taking the life of those who shoul 1 havo his protection Still another reason why bociety has a right to overthrow the liquor traffic is that society is continually thxed to sup port hospitals prisons orphanages and asylums resulting from the liquor traffic but receives no benefit whatever from the traffic The liquor traffic tends to produce an indigent class au unemployed class an ignorant class and an unpuncipled class the greatest foes of society and re publican institutions therefore it is not only the right but the duty of the citizens of the country to destroy it Man has no inherent right to sell liquor and since its sale is one of the greatest foes to national life and pros perity and undermines the foundations of civil society and unfits the citizen for the proper discharge of his public and private duties the government snould prohibit its sale The following is a report of the work done since September 1st by
