know that at one time you could get your head chopped off it you were caught puffing on a pipe? 1 Doctors disagree today as to whether smoking is a cause of cancer and massive research Is under way to settle the matter But tobacco has been both praised and denounced by well aa kings arid poets ever store Sir Walter Raleigh brought the weed to1 Europe from Amcrira Civilization introduced the Indians to firewater and the Indians Introduced civilization to surely one of the great Mexican standoffs of history With the help of a foamed friend a cigarette man himself we have gone Into the background of the rollercoaster controversy over tobacco Here are a few tidbits: Tidbits In 1604 King James of England called smoking branch of the to of drunkenness" and described it custom loathe some to the eye hateful to the nose harmful to the brain dangerous to the lungs and in the black stinking fume thereof nearest resembling the horrible Stygian smoke of the pit that But the custom spread European physicians prescribed tobacco to close wounds and treat ailments and diseases ranging from corns to halitosis and tetanus Later English kings tried to suppress the cultivation or use of tobacco for smoking Pope Urban VUl ex-communicated all who took snuff to church Christian IV of Denmark had all smokers and snuff-taken publicly whipped Punished Hmokrra -In Japan and China for a time the rulers punished smbkers by whippings and maimings and the Russian rulers cut off their noses The Turks stuck pipes through the noses-of smokers and exhibited them In public Later Turkish King Amurath even

warned women that cigarette smoking would cause them to grow a masculine mustache develop tuberculosis become Merita and suffer a general colfopse They also said cigarette papers were produced chiefly by Chinese lepers and that only suicidal people or idiots would smoke them It was also broadly hinted that cigarettes were made from cigar stumps collected from gutters by tramps and ragpickers Until 1880 it waa Illegal to smoke them in the streets of Boston The 'orm wave reached its peak 1909 when 12 states banned the cigarette entirely Unmlp Telegram Henry and Thomas Edison are among the famous Americans who attacked tobacco But to 1864 Abraham Lincoln sent a telegram to Gen US Grant saying: on with a bulldog grip and chew and smoke as much as The American public contributed 11000 cigars to Gen Grant after he took Fort Donel-aon Charles Lamb called smoking evening comfort my morning Statesman Benjamin Disraeli said the tomb of But Rudyard Kipling countered with woman bonly a woman bit a
