Smokes From The Garden
Dr. G. A. Harrison, chemical pathologist to St. Bartholomew’s Hospital, is in his second season of investigation into tobacco substitutes, and this time hopes to discover something which will give his tobacco-less cigarette the “bite” they now lack. After the Budget last year, Dr. Harrison began to search his garden for new smoking materials and now he smokes each day thirty home-produced cigarettes, which he calls “D.T.M.” and which cost him threepence. Many experiments resulted in this mixture of daucus (jca(rrot leaves), typha (bulrush fluff), and mentha aquatica (watermint leaves), with an addition of one part of rhubarb leaf for ‘♦binding” purposes.
