SMOKING IN PUBLIC.
Your correspondent "Also Smoking" thinks that people who object to smoking are a nervous lot. He is quite wrong. 1 am not a nervous, creature by any means, nor am I afraid of contracting disease from the fumes. I am a strong, athletic, healthy girl, but U there is anything I loathe it is tobacco smoke, and there are hundreds of girls find women who are the same, but when asked by smokers if they object to toba-cco they say, "Oh, no, ju&t to please the weaklings, "as these have a look like a lost soul when denied a smoke. A man who cannot deny himself a smoke for a few minutes when travelling in tram or bus must be a poor, weak little worm, and heis certainly no gentleman, to say the least of it; and as for women travelling in Hinokers--well, no dean, refilled lady would ever think of travelling in a dirty smoker if there were any vacant seats available in a non-smoker, unless, of course, she is looking for a husband and is not a bit particular whom she has. - NINETEEN.
