In‘her very readable “Confessions of a Society Woman” the. anonymous \vrltOr Aliys she became “engaged” when 17 years of aye. At that time women had a horror of tobacco-smoke, so this young lady exacted a pledge from her “intended"—most reluctantly given—-that lie Would abandon smoking for ever before they were tnarvied. Six months later the young wife was glad to absolve the husband from his vow. She states his temper, as the result of enforced abstinence from tobacco became “abominable.” Directly lie resumed lii.s pipe he became his old genial self again! Moral: Every lady should encourage her husband to smoke. “Robert Louis Stevenson” said that, and lie knew! Of course, discrimination should be exercised in the choice Of tobacco.
