A CONFERENCE ON THE TOBAC<br />
CO HABIT.<br />
What was called a "Conference on<br />
the Tobacco Habit" was held Tuesday<br />
night, Nov. '11, in the Allegheny Covenanter<br />
Church, at the solicitation of<br />
the Rev. "WilUam J. Coleman, the pastor.<br />
Quite a number of ministers and<br />
a large audience of men and women<br />
took ipart. While tobicco generally<br />
•was often alluded to,it was what one<br />
speaker characterized as "that pass<br />
key to perdition," the cigarette, that<br />
came iu for the most ferocious of the<br />
attacks and the roostappalling statistics<br />
were piled around this industry—<br />
both as to manufacture and consumption.<br />
Five ministers, two medical<br />
men, one woman and several other<br />
clergymen who prayed and led the<br />
devotional part of the "conference,"<br />
took part in the onslaught.<br />
The hall of the church had a large<br />
canvas fresco that showed the 33<br />
firms, with nation-wide reiputations,<br />
that will not employ a cigarette smoker.<br />
This was the only object le-sson.<br />
Mrs. "W. R. Porter, State superintendent<br />
of the department of narcotics of<br />
the "Women's Christian Temperance<br />
Union, read the Pennsylvania laws<br />
against the use of cigarettes by minors<br />
and compared them with thos-^ of<br />
other States, especially that of Kansas,<br />
which is most stringent.<br />
Dr. Coleman thought that the<br />
Church ought to be in advance of the<br />
State, hence the conference. Dr. G.<br />
M. Shillito, of the Northside, told of<br />
the results from the continued use of<br />
tobacco. While admitting that nicotine<br />
is a poison he said: "You cannot<br />
kill some men, but the one who abstains<br />
from tobacco, is the better<br />
man."<br />
Dr. D. B. "Willson Martin told of the<br />
Immediate effects of tobacco on the<br />
human body, and said; "I was not at<br />
flrst convinced that the cigarette Is<br />
more deadly than other forms of<br />
smoking, but now I am convinced. Notice<br />
a wet match that has been lighted<br />
and see the moisture going rapidly<br />
back along the wood as the flame<br />
advances. In the same way, with the<br />
cigarette, the deadly nicotine Is driven<br />
into the smoker's mouth to be<br />
absorbed by his entire system. Nicotine,<br />
in a 1 per cent solution, is one<br />
of the best germicides we have and<br />
one might as well be absorbing small<br />
quantities of that favorite poison, bichloride<br />
of mercury. I have found<br />
that the average cigarette smoker is<br />
eleven and a half years of age."<br />
Rev. John C. Slater, of the Geneva<br />
Reformed Presbyterian Church, Beaver<br />
Falls, Pa., S'POke on the selfishness<br />
of the habit. "Everybody," he said,<br />
"has the God-given right to pure air<br />
