OK TOBACCO TENDS TO CAUSE HARDENING OK THE ARTERIES. (By Samuel G.

Dixon, M. D-, LL. Pennsylvania Commissioner of Despite the almost universal indulgence and, tiie praises that have been sung of the boothing effect of tobacco, science condemns it and offers an imposing array of experiments to "prove the ill effects which follow its use. Tobacco is a drug which contains powerful poisons. Its churm lies in its drug effects.

If it has any beneficial effects they are not discoverable to the scientific investigator. On the other hand, tb.erc are certain decided results tending to physical deterioration', which are readily recognizable. It is a heart depressant and experiments on animal-have shown that it has a tendency t'j produce hardening of the arteries. Some of the foremost authorities have made clinical observations which indicate that the use of tobacco has similar effects on man.

Those who have had experience in athletics are familiar with the fact that the use of tobacco results in interference with the breathing by depressing the heart action. There are other affections com mon to smokers. To make a summary in brief tho results of all scientific investigations seem to prove conclusively that the use of tobacco is distinctly harmful to the majority of men. i. PROOF.

ROOSEVELT AGAIXST BURTON. The chief issue in the Republican platform this campaign is' "beat Wilson." Protection, expansion, emigration, preparedness, anything, everything, will be subordinated to this one issue. That Roosevelt may throw his following to a candidate in the convention, is considered possible at this time by some of the New England writes.

The following is from the special correspondence from Washington in the Springfield (Mass.) Republican. It is one view of thjs situation revealed by a New England paper: "The one mail of all the Republican candidates, whom it is reported on unquestionable authprity that the colonel has most flatly declared he would not support is Senator Burton. Tho word is that (he colonel would support "anyone but Burton." And his aversion to Burton is frankly laid to the fact that the former Ohio senator, who was earlier one of the leading figures in thp House of Representatives, was uniformly opposed to the enlargement of the navy. But while he would not stajid for Burton, there seems to be no question that, the colonel would for almost any ether Republican whpm he might t' ink to have a better chance than himself of defeating Mr. Wilson.

It seems that his neighbors had been having milk stolen and our hero determined to turn Sherlock Holmes.

Drawing a bead on tl -miscreants be was preparing to shout sternly to them that they were his prisoners when along the long barrel he noted that the figures were moving. Somewhat surprised he looked more carefully and saw the two figures were advancing upon him.
