A Boy named Samuel Kimball, six¬ teen years old, a chorister boy in St. Ma¬ ry’s Church, Brooklyn, died very recent¬ ly ;it St. John’s Hospital. Almost his last words were.’ ‘’Let any boy who smokes cigarettes look at me now know how much I have suffered, and lie will never put another in his mouth.” He was a bright boy, an exquisite singer, and had many friends. lie lived with his grandmother and worked in a chan¬ delier factory. Here is the -story as lie told it to his nurse, Sister Cornelia: “To me lie confessed that his trouble oiigi nated from cigarette smoking. Some days, lie said he smoked twenty ciga¬ rettes. At first he said he kept his grandmother in ignorance of his indul¬ gence. As he continued to smoke the appetite grew upon him with such a force that lie could not choke it off, and it began to effect his constitution. Why I asked him, “did you not stop when you saw what it was bringing you to.” “O 1 could not,’ he replied. ‘If I could not get to smoke I was almost wild. 1 could not think of nothing else. That my grandmother might not suspect me, I would work extra hours instead of spending my regular wages for cigaret¬ tes. For months I kept up this excess, although I knew it was killing me. Then I seemed to fall to pieces all of a sud¬ den.” His disease took the form of dropsy in the legs, and was very painful. Bister Cornelia continues the story: “During all his sufferings lie never for¬ got what had brought him to this terri¬ ble condition. He kept, asking me to warn all boys against their use. A few days before he died he called me to his bedside and said that lie had not lived in vain if only those boys who are still alive would profit by his sufferings and death.” There is no other form of to¬ bacco so dangerous as cigarettes, because tlie nicotine in tlie smoke is not absorb¬ ed in the loose tobacco smoke clean up to the end, but is taken, unlilted and undi¬ luted, into the lungs. It was not the poi¬ son in the paper, but the poison of tobac¬ co which killed Samuel Kimball, and is ruining the health of thousands of other palefaced liovs.—Union Signal.
