Twiddle your fingers and forget the weed By —George W, Crane Alan J., aged 28, is a tobacco addict. ‘Dr, Crane,” he began, ‘my blood pressure has been zooming. “So my family physician has: urged me to quit smoking, “Sponsored by the 8.C. Centennial Committee and the Terrace Centennial Committee, October 17 His first expansion was the purchase of a pony todo the pack- Before long Barnard’s express “So I have tried to taper off, but without success. “How can a heavy smoker break his slavery to nicotine?’? « @ « It is very difficult to break a bad habit merely by tapering off, . That is one reason why fat folks have so much trouble trying to slenderize, In fact, it is really much harder tolose weight than to quit either the tobacco or Liquor or dope habit! b wake in those 3 unnatural acts, the victim can make a clean reak. . He can thus stop entirely his use of tobacco. But that is not healthful regarding food, for our body needs fresh protein every day to replenish the worn out muscle cells, especially those in the heart! * * e When quitting tobacce, try to substitutea similar muscular pattern that is less objectionable. For we have found by experiment that it isn't the craving for nicotine but the desire to wave one’s arm around in the act of smoking that bothers the addict, The use of chewing gum is thusa partial answer when quit- ting cigarets, for you consume energy while using the jaw muscles. They don’t drain off energy as fast as by waving your arm, but you can continue chewing much longer and thus equalize the total energy expended. Other muscular outlets for relief of tension, consist of twirling your key ring or toying with a watch chain or tossing a pencil inthe air, end over end, as you talk or watch television, Another superb device is to keep rubber bands in your pocket and then hook the Little finger in one end and the thumb in the other, Meanwhile, bring the paralle! bands over the knuckles, Then try to get the rubber band off that hand without use of the other hand or without rubbing it against any other object. You'll be surprised at how much twisting and turning of the arm and hand will result, This drains off the surplus nervous energy that otherwise makes the tobacco addict reach for a smoke, e @ Remember, we have tested smokers withde-nicotinized ciga- rets and found they didn’t know the difference? So the cigaret habit is chiefly a means of letting off “steam” via the act of waving the hand and arm for 5 minutes, Since the average smoker iops off from 5 to 7 years of his lifespan, it is smart to- eliminate slavery to tobacco. And every smoker can do so easily, if he has a serious heart attack or lung operationfor cancer! For then he resolves 100 per cent to quit! So why wait till you are half dead or with maybe only 18 months of life remaining, due to spread of your cancer to the liver? . One of the Ten Commandments say ‘*Thou shalt not kali,” and the usual smoker is killing at least 5 years of his own lifespai, . oct oy _ 4609 LAZELLE On the route of one ofthe early Glidden tours, one farmer buried the blade of acrosscut saw across a narrow part of the roadway, Four cars passed over the saw- and all four cars had all four tires punctured —before the cause was discovered ard the blade remove ed It was common practice, espec- jally on Sundays when motorists were out for pleasure drives in the country to bury brokenbotties in the dusty roads.
