It was for this rea- son that the recent cs in which a wealthy man was sent to jail for no inconsiderable term, because he killed three persons with his automobile, was mentioned. It is for the son that another case in which a man s sentenced from to eight years in the penitentiary for killing a girl with his car, is here noted. This is the second instance of jail sen- tences being given for this crime that has come to notice recently, and in each case, undoubtedly, there was no intent to kill but rather a criminal carelessness that brought death. The dangerous character of weapon that is in the hands of driver of an automobile cannot emphasized too strongly. Few realize the power of the thing that is so obedient to a slight movement of the driver.

Bassette sent me clips from the Herald and your surprising and delightful editorial of the 18th instant, for which I thank you both. You surprise me by the possession of so full and accurate knowledge of my very plain and simple message and ability to make discrimination which many papers seem unable or unwilling to make. Smoking or using any form of to- bacco is moral delinquency under the protected age as it is also actual law breaking. In Colorado a most em- phatic though typical case was that of a principal’'s own son, told me by himself. I could name many similar cases. A physician's word came to me in N, Y. C. by his friend, a surrogate, namely that “the poisons of tobacco ot into a boy's soul.” Yet, if high grade men and boys are valuable, then there should be more reformers and less editors. Or better still why should not all editors become reformers? To he called a *reformer,” often used as a term of reproach, is richly repaid by the privilege of saving one boy from tobacco and tobacco conse- quences. 1 must say “tobacco” for element- ary boys chew tobacce H. 8. boys use pipes and cigars, children in many MACKAY & WALLIN The Furniture and Drapery Shop Opposite Hungerford Court: week we will put down all Linoleum bought here FREE of Don’t miss this opportunity.

Four hundred cows were purchased by the Americans and imported from other districts, to become the nucleus of a system of cooperative dairies in which the peasants rapidly are learn- ing to participate.

You may see in how good company vou are when I remark that in your City two churches, 3 public schools #nd one husiness college allowed me to speak 11 times with the doors open still for the future and dates pending. And your kindly disposed editorial will surely add confirmation to my message regarding one of the most vital issues of today and the most neglected. Significant reduetion of four inches ten pounds in weight, was made near the end of the war, Also for the Brit- ish army a reduction is recorded of 12 inches during the past century in four steps downward, there as here in order to get men. While my message is for the young of all ages, I mention to the mature that I urge continued abstinence from tobacco, for it is always poison and poison never forget that it is poison. Tohacco is just as poison the day after 21 or any other period, as it is the day before. Abundant testimony comes to me from employers of their discount- ing or declining smokers for service. In N. Y. C. a business man said to me, “I smoke, but I would not have in my office a clerk who rides fifteen or | fwenty miles into town every morning| in a smoking car. He can’t have my money, his brain is doped.” The employment man in the San | Franeisco Y. M. C. A, said to me, "I} | won't put my name on a _reference for | a smoker. I want my name to count and it will lose value if I try to boost the man who can't make good."” The manager of a wholesale cotton | house in N. Y, C. said to me, "I would {like to fill this house with young men_ 10 don't smoke, I can't get them.” | T may add here that 10 years ago one hufidred thousand children in N. Y. C. | railed at promotion yearly, costing forty-five dollars yearly, which means | four and onc half million added to | the school budget for delayed scholar- | | ship. And the manager just mention- jr'rl or the house, is helping to pay| | about a million and a half weekly for | supporting the schools. Yet he says, |"I can't get them.” i In Greenwood, 8. C. a contractor | said to me, “I had an outside job that | “was going too slowly. I said to the men, “I will advance the pay ten per| | cent of every man who quits tobacco, | {and I will dock every man ten per | cent who doesn’t.”” Every man rose to | | my offer and the work went through | {on time.” | Similar cases could be multiplied almost indefinitely from memory, but I close with one from Wall street. | When speaking with the private sec- | retary of one of the richest men in the | | world, he id, ight here in this| office in Wall street are plenty of | these men looking for 12 o'clock so /| they may go out and smoke.” Then | he said with impressiveness which I can't reproduce “Those men are not| giving us value.” This is not fiction | and 1 eau produce the man, and three | witnesses.
