THE PRIZE WINNER.
Following is the essay that won the
prize at the high school building Jast
night, on the subject- of narcotics,
presented by Miss Hazel Chapman:
Tobacco is a very important plant
belonging to the nightshade family.
According to some authorities,
smoking was practiced by the Chinese
at a very early date. At the time of
the discovery of America, tobacco
, was in frequent use among the In
I (linns and the practice of smoking,
i which had with them a religious char
' actcr, was common to all the tribes,
i The name tobacco was either de
rived from the term used in Hayti to
: designate the pipe, or from tobacco
in San Domingo, whence it was intro
duced into Spain and Portugal in 1559
by a Spaniard. It soon found its way I
Tobacco in different forms costs
the people of the United States more
than $30,000,000 annually, all of which ;
is far worse than if thrown away. i
It impairs the voice, furrows the I
cheek and sallows the complexion.
And last, but not least, it makes
angry mothers and scolding wives.
For example, the complaint of the
old woman who said: I
They spit in every corner, they spit
in every room,
They spit beneath the table and they
spit behind the broom.
They spit on Brussels carpet, they
spit on painted floor,
'Tis spit, spit, spit, in the house or out

the opium habit by cigarette smoking.
1 he cigarette is mightier than the
saloon for the following reasons: "It
is more easily obtained than liquor,"
"it is cheaper." it includes the alcohol
habit since its continued use develops
the craving for liquor; it goes deeper
ami further than the. saloon. The
cigarette is the only royal road to the
penitentiary. It is responsible for
more crime than any other one thing

The cigarette habit is the path

And Harold Hamilton, a Chicago
artist, who smoked cigarettes for 15
years, says, "ft is no more possible
for an inveterate, noison-soaked cigar
ette fiend to continue his life without
the aid of whisky than it would be
without the aid of tobacco itself.
In London, Ontario, a lad 19 years
old, a cigarette fiend, took to whisky
and the two habits brought on "cigar
ette tremens." He went crazy and is
now in the asylum.
There are but few substances in na
ture that are capable of destroying

a hundred would ever think of us
ing intoxicating liquors did he not
first learn to use tobacco in some
form.
Daughters of drunken fathers do
not inherit a hankering after liquor,
neither would the sons did they but
abstain from the use of tobacco. And
yet ministers of the gospel and many
of the deacons of our churches, good
men. so-called, who preach temper
ance to the youths of the land un
ceasingly, keep their mouths filled
with the vile stuff or moke smoke
houses of their heads as if the end
and aim of life with them was to
pickle their tongues in smoke and
their whole bodies are so saturated
with the vile stuff that their neigh
bors' nostrils announce their coming
afar off.
The smoking of a single cigar and
especially by those not long habituat
ed to its use, will increase the pulse
from ten to fifteen beats. Dr. Tuit
chell states that nearly all the sudden
deaths occurring during sleep which
came under his observation, were
those of persons who had indulged
largely in the use of tobacco. And
subsequently the correctness of his
statements was confirmed by investi
gations made by the Boston Society I
of Medical Observations.
