THE general adoption of the cigarette!
I In England dates from tne war in me
Crimea. It frequently happened that
because of their inability to procure
cigars and smoking tobacco the British
officers were forced to have recourse to
the cigarettes of their Turkish allies. They

and It was not long after their return to
England that the manufacture of ciga
rettes began.
To the gre-at plague In London tobacco
owes It. earliest adoption. Until then few
persons used tobacco in sny form and It
was supposed to be a filthy and shameful
practice. Then came the plague and It
was soon noticed that the plague did mt

Within a few months every one who was
called upon to handle plague patients
smoked, snd the tobacco trade, which untl.
then had been a sickly Industry, became
