So many troubles chase us. so many problems face us. we're always In a Slew; so many woes distressing, so many cares aro pressing, we don't know what to do. We sigh for days departed, when we were happy heart ed, and full of wholesome glee; when griefs were not invented, and every man, contented, sat 'neath his vine and tree. Tut in those bygone seasons, ere Huns, with tricks and treasons. . kicked up a beastly row, we all were ns unhappy, as sassy and as scrappy, sis sore as we are now. The troubles then parading were of another shad iing, they bore another brand, butj they were just .is galling, they kept tlie people brawling throughout a wearied land. Our words were just as bitter, we didn't sing and twitter more than we do today; we pawed around and panted, and walked the floor and ranted, and groaned our hearts away. Pespite the thorns that scar us. des pite the jolts that jar us. we still can smile a few; it doesn't make things better to be a chronic trotter and weep a quart or two.

THOSE whose principal occupation in life is minding ether people's business are preparing for a nation yyidft, campaign to destroy the tobacco industry and make it a cnir.e to smok- ch-w or snuff.

Tobacco injures no one when used in moderation, and when used to excess, only injures the user. It does not affect society adversely. It is rather: a flimsy straw bogey to wage a nation-wide campaign against-but it furnishes an excuse and provides a means to keep those so inclined from having to work for a living a f course there is the precedent of having once suc- TterVf1? t0 !FuIate PrsonaI habits M the matter of drink, the public will good naturedly submit to other regulations.
