days after to call upon the bishop of his diocese, — 

 not Bishop Huntington, you may be sure, — he 

 was invited to take a cigar. He declined on the 

 ground that his physician had forbidden tobacco. 

 "Oh, come in and have a good smoke with me," 

 replied the bishop, " there are plenty of physicians 

 who approve of smoking." 



TOB ACCO-MANNEKS . 



A gentleman, who with several ladies was wait- 

 ing his turn at a money-order office, ventured to 

 suggest to one in the act of smoking, who was also 

 waiting, that tobacco-fumes were unpleasant for 

 the ladies. " This is a free country," was his re- 

 ply. To some other remark on the subject from 

 the gentleman, he made answer: "If you don't 

 like tobacco-smoke, you can stick your head the 

 other way ! " 



"I have reason to think," writes one, "that a 

 great many persons who smoke choice brands, and 

 who are told by ladies that the fragrance is agreea- 

 ble to them, fail to know that old tobacco-smoke is 

 everywhere and always a nuisance." 



Says Dr. Drysdale : " The use of tobacco turns 

 the smoking rooms of most clubs into dens, which 

 remind the non-smoker of the lairs of wild animals, 

 so foul and pestiferous are they."
