The C[?]garette Evil.

Dr. .1. D. McAfee, member of thr Cleveland Health Board, says “'’igir ette smoking especially when Indulged in excessively, is very dangerous, ev en for a grown man. Its off set upon h young boy is terrible. Some of thr little chaps in town, boys twelve m fourteen years old. carry the smoking of cigarettes to such an extent that they, to use tbfir own phraseology smoke themselves Into a dream This means that they dull their sen«e* and cloud theii brains. A cruuadt against this vice ought to be started at once, and all dealers guilty* of sell Ing cigarette* to minors should b* dealt with severely.”
