The Rise of Cigarette Use

By Chicago Tribune

THERE were over 5,000,000,000 cigars manufactured in the United States in 1886. In 1884 there were a little over 3,000,000,000 made, and in 1880 a little over 2,000,000,000. It is, therefore, safe to assume that the use of this fascinating weed is not on the decrease, and that the anti-tobacco society is not making much headway.—Chicago Tribune.
