Readjustment Period On Quitting Smoking By DICK WEST United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) — Anyone who quits smoking must go through a readjustment period that is likely to present certain difficulties. With me, these took the form of dart throwing and an abortive attempt to grow a beard. But by and large I have had it easy compared to the experience of a young lady in Pensacola, Fla., with whom I have been in correspondence. I would mention her name except that she is in the broadcasting business and therefore is presumably adverse to publicity. So I’ll just call her Miss Wireless. Miss Wireless writes that until a few months ago she not only was a confirmed cigarette smoker but also had a habit of chewing her fingernails. Dangerous Combination ■Bus is a dangerous combination, owing to the fact that a smoker who sticks a finger in his or her mouth is apt to put a match to it by mistake. Recognizing that she was a potential fire hazard. Miss Wireless resolved to kick the nicotine habit, which led to rather unexpected results. “When I quit smoking,” Miss Wireless reports, “I became befuddled, confused, dim-witted. At first, it was difficult to remember what I had stopped. So, by accident, I stopped biting my nails at the same time.” One might think that congratulations were in order for ridding herself of two bad habits, but • Miss Wireless views it as a mixed blessing. Require Attention "I now have long unshapely claws that constantly require attention. I rip my hose, I hit the wrong letters on the typewriter and I go around tapping on tables all day. “I never had any trouble picking up pins when I had no nails. Now Pm having to be rehabilitated and learn how to use the instruments. “I wake up scratched and bleeding every morning, and I’ve developed the dreadful habit of blowing on my nails and shining them on my collar.” Miss Wireless certainly has a problem there and, as a fellow ex-smoker, I would like to help if I can. My suggestion is that since she doesn’t use cigarettes . any more she should bite the filters off and impale them on the ends of her nails. This would make her the only girl in Pensacola with filtered fingertips.
