During the decade 1890-1900, the population of this country increased not quite 25 per cent, while consumption in cigars alone increased 50 per cent. According to the report of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue there were consumed in the United States in the year 1902 6,905,749,968 cigars, almost 19,000,000 a day for 365 days in the year, at an expense of $346,000,000. It is simply awful. But besides this there were consumed 2,658,176,130 cigarettes, and used in addition 315,719,475 pounds of tobacco and snuff. Think of it! Can we wonder at the startling increase of insanity and nervous diseases? And yet stupefied, dreaming, in the reeking narcotizing fumes of tobacco professed watchmen of God tell us that the world is drifting on toward a millennium of peace, and the “people love to have it so;” but “what will ye do in the end thereof?”
