mstime, habit, vice, or what haverou, treasury experts estimated thatTom consumption and tax figuresssued by the Bureau of InternalRevenue. It amounted roundly to116.80 for every man, woman and:hild in the country.

Here's The FiguresThe bureau'# figures, with the ex>ert'sestimates of value, made up

;he bill this way:Cigarets smoked, 105,915,200,080;

ost, $927,500,000; cigars smoked,1,453,000,000; cost, $645,300,000.Manufactured tobacco chewed, pipesmokedand consumed by those whostill "roll their own," 343,000,000pounds; cost, $343,000,000. Snuff,lipped, rubbed and sneered, 40,)00,000pounds; cost, $80,000,000;:igarette papers and tubes, quantityinreported; cost about $12,200.Except for a slight decline as to

:igars and smoking and chewing to>acco,the use of the fragrant weedlourished astonishingly. Nearly1,000,000,000 more cigarettes were
