EMINENT MEN ON TOBACCO.

BLINDNESS caused by tobacco-smoking is, in my opinion, practically always incurable. Nor is this so uncommon as is believed. Not a large number are totally blind, but thousands upon thousands have their eyesight permanently weakened by the deadly poisons inhaled when the tobacco habit is indulged.—Dr. Roberts.
One of the chief reasons why my voice shall always be lifted up against the use of tobacco is that it leads in so many cases to alcoholic intemperance. I am convinced that tobacco-poisoning is the cause of many a drunken spree.—Dr. Edwards.
