Timothy Titcomb : " I have never seen a slave 

 of tobacco who did not regret his bondage ; yet, 

 against all advice, against nausea and disgust, 

 against cleanliness, against every consideration of 

 health and comfort, thousands every year bow the 

 neck to this drug and consent to wear its repul- 

 sive yoke." 



The president of one of the Cambridge col- 

 leges, England: "Smoking demoralizes people 

 more than drinking ; when young it makes them 

 skulk, and when grown up it makes them rude 

 and careless of the feelings of others." 



President John Bascom : " Ugly and unclean ! 

 An indulgence that holds in its right hand a sting- 



ing curse." 



Rev. Dr. Dexter, of the " Congregationalist : " "I 

 never in my life used tobacco in any form except 

 to burn it on a hot shovel with malice aforethought 

 towards certain bugs which infested my conserva- 

 tory. Were I to live my life over again, I don't 

 think I should alter it in this respect, except to 

 try something else on the bugs." 



Madame de Stael : "Smokers cease to think." 

 Dr. Nichols, in the "Herald of Health:" "To- 

 bacco makes man selfish, unmannerly, and in cer- 

 tain ways what is called brutal. A smoker will 

 carry his disgusting odor into any company, and 

 show himself utterly callous to the rights of others.
