“The laying on of hands,” says an
exchange, “is said to be a cure for the
cigarette habit If attended to at the
proper time. The left hand should be
placed upon the youngster's neck with
a gentle but firm pressure downward
and forward, bring the urchin in »
proper attitude over the parental knee,
then apply the right hand where it
will do the most good. Two or three
treatments will generally effect a cure.”

that ls sufficient reason why every
