Smoking
Sir, —The Birmingham survey which found smoking by primary school boys to start at the age of nine is startling. and indicative of future disease. Smoking is an expensive item in many lives and costs more in medical expenses later on. A cure
known and practised by many desiring to give up the habit is chewing a dice of lemon. The mouth-cleansing result assists in defeating the craving. Is lack of some required acid, such as lemon supplies in the diet, the reason why so many younger persons became addicts to nicotine acid instead? As summer is coming, fresh lemon drinks for a family should be of value. Smoke contracts the capillaries and finer blood vessels of the circulatory system. Yours, etc, FIRST AID. September 3, 1963.
