inue smoking, this very common remark, "if i ever stopped smoking, i would gain ten pounds." perhaps! a cigarette at 4p.m. does not contain the calories that a milkshake does. but the healthy way to lose excess pounds is to eat the right kind and the right amount of food.
  we again rationalize when we buy filter tip cigarettes. we assure ourselves that the filter reduces any danger, but according to the july, 1957 edition of reader's digest, "the tar and nicotine reduction possible through a filter ranges from 7 to 17 per cent. these percentages are too small to be really protective." with a perfect filter no smoke could seep through─just hot air. so many people believe that filters are the solution that filter tips will account for about half of this year's output. can't we admit that we are being duped to form a habit that is detrimental to mankind─a habit that leads to addiction?
  so you begin to wonder if maybe you should quit smoking─that, after all, you are an individual. what would happen to you tomorrow if some conclusive proof should suddenly come forth─proof that cigarettes are a one-way ticket to death? what would you do? who do not smoke, you've seen why others start the habit and the risks they are taking. be on your guard. you, who have the urge to start smoking─you are perched on a fence and can jump to either side. which will you choose? and you, who are already confirmed smokers, are now confronted with the hardest question of all. if you wanted to stop smoking, "could you? could you break the addiction?"
  jean nicot, the frenchman who gave his name to nicotine, believed that he had discovered a miracle drug. today we try to filter out nicotine because of its harmful nature. the modern jean nicots believe that smoking makes the woman more attractive, more desirable─the man more masculine, more independent.
  we say we are thinking men! well, are we thinking? cigarette, anyone?
