I5AI1Y JOURNAL

WEDNESDAY. .SEPTEMBER 9. 158. SMOKING STRICTLY PROHIBITED We had been to Drury Lane to witness the performance xt' a drama which was at that time creating scmo j pen;-arion in ijondon, ana were uis.cusing the merits ot the play ana me contents of a barrel of oystera at mjr ehanibers in Gray's Inn. Tho "we alluded to consisted of myself, lorn Allen rfnrrv Townsend and rrank Ellison. We considered ourselves no mean critics of the drama, and not a new piece was placed on the boards of any of the leading theatres without being visited by our quartette. At the conclusion of each performance. our party adjourned to the domicile of one of its number, for the purpose of canvassing the spectacle over a substantial supper. This latter almost invariably presented itself in the form of oysters and stout, whenever that delicious molluc was in the season. These suppers were given in rotation by each ot us, the whole expense of each supper being borne by the person at whose house the entertainment was given. Oa the present occasion I waa the victim. We were all four bachelors, but Allen was engaged, and expected to be married before long. When we had elaughtored as many oysters as we cared to devour, spirit decanters were placed upon the table, and pipes and cigars produced. Each of ua mixed for himself a steaming glass of whisky toddy, and Harry Townsend, Frank Ellison, and myself proceeded to light our pipes. As soon as wo had got them satisfactorily to work, it was noticed for the first time that Tom Allen had made no preparation for taking his part in the general fumigation. This elicited a good' deal of surprise, for Tom Allen had always been known for an inveterate smoker, being generally the first to commence and the last to discontinue smoking in every company ot slaves to the fragrant, pungent weed. i ; "Are not you going to light tip, Tom?" I asked. "No, I thinknot,' he replied, in a tone quite melancholy to hear. " Aren't you well?" I continued. "), yes; I'm well enough," he said; "why should you think otherwise? 1 suppose I needn't smoke unless I choose to do so. I think I am better without it." I was inclined to think that this last assertion of hi3 was a pleasant fiction; if it waa not, he had certainly undergone- a marvellously sudden conversion, for it was fresh in the remembrance ot all of us, how, on a verv recent occasion, Tom Allen had carried on a controversy with an aou-iobaccouist, denying that the use of tobacco was detrimental to health, which he proved to his own satisfaction by asserting that unless he smoked after his dinner, he could not digest what he had eaten. I know, ou that occasion, we considered his arguments sound, and entirely shared his views. To hear him say, therefore, that he thought he was better without smoking, niaJo us open our eyes with astonishment to the greatest extent which tho clouds cf smoke, which were rapidly filling the room, permitted My rooms were small, and with three or four mouths puffins- vigorously away, even the strongest eyes would occasionally smart, , especially in cold weather, when ventilation by the wii dow was out of the question. " io you mean to say you have really given up smoking?" asked Harry Townsend " you, the great champiou Of nicotine?" " For the present, at all events," was Tom's reply. " Well, after that I should not be surprised to hear that you had become a member of the United Kingdom Alliance." " should hardly be surprised myself," said Tom Allen, in a most despondent tone. " Why, Tom, whatever is the matter?" we exclaimed simultaneously. " Have you got some heart disease or other complaint, which would be aggravated by smoking?"- " Nothing of the sort," he replied. 41 1 believe I'm as strong as a bull; that's the worst of it. If I felt that smoking was injurious to my health, I should reconcile - myself to doing without it; but when 1 really believe I'm better with it, it does seem rather too bad to have to give it up. ' " Then you're not discontinuing it voluntarily?" -I asked, with some surprise. "What can be your reason?" Before Allen could make any re ply, fl rank Allison called out: 1 have it! It's all as clear as daylight; we all know Tom's going to be married; it's his lady-Jove who has stopped hh smoking. Tom, my dear friend, bo advised in timo; think well before you bind yourself hand and foot. With all due respect to the youag lady, whom I have never seen, I can't help saying I pity you, for I think a woman who can act in so arbitrary a manner before marriage, will wear the breeches with a ven geanc3 when the nuptial knot is tied." Tom Allen heaved a deep sigh. The embargo that had been laid on his favorite habit evidently depressed him. Having, I suppose," in some measuva relieved himself by the sigh (or ele why was it perpetrated?) ne proceeded to speak as follows: .- "You are mistaken, Frank; it is not Amy that has put the veto on ruy smoking; she, dear girl, sympathizes with me in my great trial. As, how--ever, t.e fact of my not smoking has leeome tho subject of your conversation, I will make a clean breast of it, " and give you the explanation of my wretched position - J". hope my sad story may act as a lesson to you all, and make you very careful in your couduct -to strangers, for you never can tell under whatcircumstance you ma? meet them at a future time." Before he commenced the relation of the episode in his life which had resulted in his absuiueuco from tobacco we replenished out glasses, in onler that we might not disturb him iu his relation. Tom them drew another Jeep inspiratiou.and proceeded: " Tho incident which has resulted in my discontinuing the practice of uicncub j. say iur mt prcs nt.beeause laniin hopes that the embargo may be removed in the future) occurred a few years ago, in my old Oxford days. : s " I was proceeding to Alma Mater, At the conclusion of one of the vi. tion3, and had taken my place in the tnin which was to bear me thither. L was the sole occupant of the com partment, and the train was on the nmnt of starting, when the door of the earriaare was suddenly ' thrown open, and an old gentleman en tered the compartment. He was i sour-looking old fellow of about sixty years of age, and was evidently Den itnnn takini? the utmost care of. him ooif Ha wore a long greatcoat, which reached almost to his heels, and over .1,:, .,.-,, thrown a short wrarmer: moreover, his throat was carefully ,firi in the folds of a thick, red woollen comforter. He did not appear to me to be at all the sort ot person with one could enter into conversa
