RANCHER DECLARES M OTHERS SHOULD NOT SMOKE qiGARETTES. CANADIAN PROTST. OTTAWA, June 19. A survey of 5000 maternity cases in Washington reveals that in no case where the mother was a eigarette smoker could she nurse her baby. A leech put on the arni of one of the motheis died frorn nicotine polsoning, drawn from her system. These facts were brought before the Canadian House of Commons in Ottawa by Colonel H. A. Mullins, a Western rancher. "I am not opposed to smoking," said Colonel Mullins. "I find no fault with the man of matu* e age who does so. Indeed, there is nothing I like better than to see a man in front of the fireplaee lighting and smoking his pipe. But I detest looking at a woman smoking cigarettes. Those who do wiil never make good mothers."
