TOBACCO.

Concerning the use of tobacco, a French writer has thus gathered the opinion of various of his literary countrymen. M. Dumas found that tobacco, after awhile, made him giddy, the giddiness disappearing six months after he ceased smoking. Of it he says: “Tobacco, in my opinion, together with alcohol, is the most formidable enemy of intelligence.” Augier and Feuillet, Dumas declares, have almost died of smoking. Taine smokes cigarettes, and says it is a bad habit.
