Experiments Tint May Bs of Interest to Smokers. “Anyone who wishes to find out how much nicotine he might take into his system by smoking can easily get an idea by a very simple experiment.” says an old smoker, who is rarely seen in public or private without a cigar in his mouth. "Puff briskly until the cigar smoke is clear white then draw a big mouthful, double your handkerchief, place it over vour i lips and blow out the smoke violently ■as though you were whistling. Look at your handkerchief and you will see a deep brown stain almost as big as a dime on the white linen. That ih the nicotine and other oils distilled from the tobacco during burning. ; Now, of course. I don't mean to say that regular smoker would absorb all this oil into his system. Most of It passes away with the smoke, as shown by the brown deposit on the handkerchief, but still enough re mains to affect the nerves, as any inexperienced smoker can testify af ter his first attempts to become ac customed to the weed. Whether the nicotine hurts anybody who is used to it is a question for the doctors." Women Trust Busters. The housewives of a Pennsylvania town "busted" a trust In record time last week. The milk dealers raised the price two cents per quart, where upon the worn mi entered upon an agreement to use only condensed milk.
