" Most people like a flavoured cigar," said an Indianapolis druggist to a reporter, who had stepped in to buy a weed. " Try one of these; I think you will like it." The reporter took one of the brand recommended to him, lighted it, and began to smoke. " I have to put up considerable cigar flavour," continued the drug man, '"and I suppose* some people wouldn't find it so diffioult Si thing to quit smoking if they know what the popular flavours are made of. On second thought, though, I don't think it would make any difference The faot that old cigar stumps are worked over into cigarettes and smoking tobaooo, though thoroughly vontt* lated in the newspapers, never cured a smoker of the habit." " Tell me something about thoßft flavours," Baid the reporter. " Well, since you insist on it, I will. A flavour I have made » good deal of— it's » flavour that, in the language of the trade, makes ' a ten oont cigar for five cents '— ifr made as follows :— Gum gulao, gum tola, tonqua beans and essenoe of pineapple, of each one ounce, valerian root, two ounces ; laudanum (Mnoture of opium), one ounce ; oil of rose, six dropn ; Jamaioa rum, half sv pint ; maeerato for 86 hours and pour off, u«uig one ounce to a pint of port nine, to blow on the fillers. .< good many men whe Rot. attached to a oertain brand of cigars don't know what chains 'em.
