THE TOBACCO HABIT.

HAVE YOU GCT IT, AND DO YOU WANT TO LOSE IT?

A Chicago Specialist Says That a Sure Cure For “My Lady Nicotine” Can Be Found In the Plentifal Use of the Humble Pennut.

However fantastic my particular method of dealing with the tobacco hab- it may seem on paper it will effect a eure if faithfully curried out. In the firet place, be sure that your patient really desires to break off the habit of using tobacco. In tie secund place, re- member that your patient will react ac- cording to the impression your manner makes upon his mind. If you speak lightly of your meth: d of treating him, be will hold that method in small es- teem. Therefore, speak impressively, aod if he smiles at your modus operandi frown him into a decent humility.

Saggestion alone is aot cufficient to hold the average tob:.cco user, ana you will therefore add # materia! medicine im the shape of—peanuts! Yes, my friend, Indicrous as tie idea seems, there lies in the vulgar pezuut a charm to sap the power of ‘‘My Lady Nicotine’’ and free the fettered slave.

In all drug habits there are two con- ditiong-to combat— physical and men- tal, or physiological and psychological. I use peannts to offset the physical crav- ing and suggestion to calm the mind.

What is the condition of the user of tobacco if the weed is withdrawn? It is important to understand this, because there is but a «light variation in one dozen cases from the average.

The condition is one of mental un- rest, some pbysical svnsations and nervy- eusness. The withdrawal of tobacco uets as a withdrawal of a powerful nerve tonic, because this weed, used first as a nerve sedative, becomes by force of usage anerve stimulant. Let us take the mental c ndition first under consideration. I do not try to put a to Lacco user to sleep, because it is an un necessary performance, but give him positive suggestions while he is sitting opposite me to the following effect:

‘that it will be ensy to break him of the habit.

That he will not anffer, despite the fact that he has tried to break off pre- viously, but has failed on account of the discomfort eneuilg.

That he is not a hero or a being to be pitied or sympathize] with, because he will not be called ton to display any heroic qualities of e: durance.

That if he follows directions he will not suffer from nervousness or ‘‘sink- ings’’ at the pit of the stomach.

That he will begin at once to gain in weight; that bis me-ory will be sharp- cr and more tenacious, and that his di- gestive organs will regain tone; that his nerves will be as steel, his muscles as iron and his comyp/iexion wil! lose the muddy hue which mars its comeliness.

bat the habit is uncleanly—in fact, degrading—and that its gratification entails a gross waste of money. What right bas he to literally barn his inccme when his wife is compelled to wear a gown that is out of ate?

Thus, then, do 1 p:epare the patient’s mind forthe lightness of the task be- fore him, laying special stress upon the fact that he will at no time consider himself an object of compassion or se]f pity, for if he believe himself to be per- forming a deed of no small heroism he svill suffer agonies, whereagif bis abne- sation is ignored an:! taken as a matter ot course he will renct accordingly.

Now, as to the physical symptoms, they will be but slight if the above preparation of the mind is properly dore and will show themselves in occa- sional pains abont the region of the heart, einking at the pitof the stomach, a lassitude, weak ard accelerated pulse and muscular twitchings. Nervousness, jem ping at a sudden noise and irrita- bility of temper wil! be in evidence, but will be greatly modified by suggestion.

Prescribe peanuts, to be eater slowly, constantly and continuaily. He must

be occupied. Busy im therefore with pennuts. He would if left alone, think tobacco. He must. on the contrary,

think peanuts. Has he a loathing for peanuts? All the better. He will learn to love them for their nutritious quali- ties and intrinsic flavor. Does his stom- ach rebel on the teeond or third day? Has he biliousness or colic? It is still well, because no man when bilious de-

+ tobacco. Observe that you are supplying him with material for his digestive organs to work upon, and that his jaws are mot idle. There is no vacnum, ard there will be under this regimen no sinking he pit of the stomach. A feeling of fullness perhaps, a plethoric condition, a cense of satiety, but thisis exactly iat we desire to bring about. Keep system busy ap at work; keep the

ti 1 at rest.

a, my friends, how true it is that the mouse may guaw the ropes that bind the lion! Even the plebeian peanut may be the means of restoring harinony to an afflicted bous hold: Ihave known this bumble agent, taken according to directions, stretch strong men upon beds of -:ckness from which they rose in the

urse of a day or two clean of heart youd purged of the craving for tobacco. J bave known of otiers whose stomachs were not upset and who went their way rejoicing and waxe:| fat speedily.

NERVOUS DEBILITY.

Mr. Jas. Purtelle, a well known farmer liviog near Crofton, Ont., says: —-*For several years I have been &

great sufferer from nervousness and general debility. I believe my trou-

bies originated in over-work, sggra- vated by a severe cold. I bad acvice from doctors in Pictou and Belleville, but did not get any better. went to Toronto for treatment, and for atime experienced some relief, but it was only temporary, and soon | was worse than before. Some of my neigh- bors advised me to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Piils. Before the first bcx gone I found relief,and after 1 had used a few boxes more I was rj icing in complete recovery and my health has since been excellent.

The Methods of Hundreds of Year: Ago Still In Use.

The mica mines of India are in the

interior of the country and very inaccess- ible. The Abruker mine, it is stated, produces the finest mica that has ever becn mined, both for lamination and color. It has been sunk about 200 feet, following the pitch of the vein, and all this mica and refuse have been raised and carried away by the natives. No machinery of any kind except drill and hammers is used in their mining opera- ticns.

The refuse and the mica are placed in baskets each holding ten pounds, the

' baskets being passed up from hand to | hand by women, who stand in a line on ladders. The contents of the baskets are | a posited at the top, and the baskets are | returned down the ladder in the same manner as*they went up, but by anoth- Water is taken out | of the mines by means of jugs. It is | supposed that this methed of operation | has been carried on for many hundreds | of years, except that there is more care | to protect the miners. After the crnde mica is taken from , the mines it is first roughly trimmed and then sorted into different grades, | according to sizes and quality. It is | then taken to the mica workers, who split it up and soribe out the size for it _to be out into by the shearers, the cut | piecea then being cleaned, weighed and packed ready for shipment. The mica js then transported to general ware- houses in baskets on the backs of bul- locks and in bullock carts. In this way _it is carried hundreds of miles to ship- ping points at a speed of abont ten miles a day. Tho mica can be split down to .0008 of an inch in thickness. Being both

ee ET SS Ol

Are Such Artists.

To speak of a color biind artist sounds like joking, said a noted oculist; but, strange as it seems, there are several persons so aftected who can nevertheless paint extremely well. Numbers of color blind people the:® are, of course, who draw perfectly in pencil, ink and cray- ons, but I myself know a scene painter attached to a provincial theater who, though ‘‘color blind,’’ paints al? ite scenery, and has quite a local name, not only for his *‘interiora’’ and oak chambers, but even for landscapes.

I can tell you also of two London la- dies who consulted me for color blind- ness who paint really beautiful pictures. One is the daughter of a late famous artist and was taught painting by her father. She is quite unable to distin- guish red from green, but her colors are all labeled with the names, and she has been taught which to use for cer- tain effects. Possibly her painting may seem to her eyes, as it were, drawing with a brush and ‘‘shuding’’ with the colors.

The other is a lady artist of some celebrity, who has for years exhibited anuually in London. Th» public is not aware that she is color blind. She painted the ‘‘Wedding Group” for a certain noble bridegroom a year or two ago and also several public men’s por- traits and one of an eminent physician fetched 500 guineas.

There is a gentlenian residing at Kensington who, having years ago left the navy through finding his advance- ment hopelessly barred by his color blindness, is at present making several hundreds a year by his brush as an artist, designing most artistic and brightly colored picture posters for ad- vertisement hoardings. — London An- sewers.
