A New Horror in Cigarettes

A NEW horror has been added to the cigarette in California. "Leprosy," says a San Francisco physician "is revealing itself about the lips and tongues of boys who smoke cigarettes made by Chinese. The disease, though fatal, is slow in giving tokens of its first approaches." No less than one hundred and seven cases of infection by cigarette smoking had come under the physicians' notice.—Mendocino Beacon.
