TOBACCO.
According to a recent authority, the in- jurious element in tobacco smoke is not nicotin, as has generally been supposed, but is precisely the same as that which exists in the fumes of burning charcoal- namely, carbon monoxid-in both cases the result of incomplete combustion. Says an editorial writer in The Lancet :—
Of course it is well know that niction is
a powerfully poisonous constituent of tobacco leaf left, but it is by no means.

Moreover, tho a volatile poison, nicotin does not occur in the free state in tobacco, but as an organic salt which is not volatile and which probably breaks up readily on combustion. It is doubtful whether a seventh part of the total nicotin in the tobacco reaches the mouth of the smoker, and some inves tigators deny that auy nicotin occurs in tobacco smoke at all.

The dizziness and stupor, the trembling of the limbs and the hands, the disturbance of the nerve centers and of the.. circulation, palpitation on a slight effect, and the feeble pulse may be the indications of either carbon monoxid or nicotic poison-
ing. But since one ounce of tobacco gives no less than one fifth of a pint of pure car- bon-monoxid gas when smoked in the form of cigars or in pipes, it not improbable that to a very large extent these symptoms are due to the carbon monoxid;
We have recently tried the following instructive experiment which bears upon this point: Two or tobacco smo
