WOMEN CIGARETTE SMOKERS.
The Habit Growing, and Not Confined to One
or Two Claeeei.
It is generally understood that tlio
practice of cigarette smoking by women
is oonfined to two classes of the fair sex,
says New York Tobacco Leaf. One is
the lady of wealth and lnxnry, whose
position in society <r so sorely estab
lished thnt she can, figuratively speak-
ing, blow her dainty oloni’s Imo the
very faces of her stiff bnoktrt -rides
without fear of losing caste—the te her
is composed of the disreputable class,
who do not care a flip what the world
may say or think.
Bat, according to a denier who keeps
a store away down town, there is a third
set of female indnlgers, and he claims
that it is growing rapidly in numbers.
It might be graded as the middle class,
the workers—for It Is made np of girl
stenographers who are employed in the
law and bnelness offices In the lower
part of the town.
Most of the smokers in this grade nre
snrreptltions indnlgers. These girls, so
far ns my friend knows, are of good re
pute, but their very position makes It
necessary for them to exercise oirenm-
speotion. ‘‘You Bee,” he says, ‘‘the
girls are afraid to buy In the neighbor
hood of. their homes, beoanso they are
too well known. Again they dare not
patronize the Broadway stores for fear
of meeting their employers or other
men with whom they come in oontaet
in bnslness circles. They nsnally select
a store on a side street and one that is
never crowded with men. I have
twenty or thirty regular girl customers,
and the funniest thing Is that each ol
them seems to think that she is about
the ouly girl who buys from me. The
typewriter girls, ns a rule, smoke Egyp
tian cigarettes—in fact, I have only two
girl oustomers who content themselves
with the cheaper Virginia article.

A dispatch from Binghamton, N. Y.,
says: An accidental discovery of El
mer McOroy promises to revolutionize
t..ol manufacture thronghont the world.
For years scientists and others have
been endeavoring to discover a process
for tempering copper. Recently Elmer
McOroy, a Beventeen-year-old lad of
Hallstead, while at work in this vicin
ity, made the discovery. How it was
done or what the process is will not be
told nntil such steps have been taken as
will insure to McOroy the benefits of
his discovery. Friends of McOroy say
that the government has a standing
offer of $6,000 for the man who will fur

to win thiB prize.

Improve their shooting.

Interest in the sport the olnb proposes to

proposed to select a team from the
members and have a shooting contest
with teams from Wnycross, Columbus

probability of havlug a big state shoot
