| "The most futile and disastrous day seems well spent when it is reviewed through the blue, fragrant smoke of a Havana Cigar." ~ Arthur Evelyn St. John Waugh, (28 October 1903 – 10 April 1966), was a British writer, best known for such darkly humorous and satirical novels as Decline and Fall, Vile Bodies, Scoop, A Handful of Dust, and Brideshead Revisited. |

Cigarette and Tobacco News:The tobacco industry's tollSlow, spotty progress seen in state effort to snuff out use Read complete article: Tulsa World, 2009-03-29 Author: JANET PEARSON Associate Editor
Summary: Here's a news bulletin that'll blow your hair back: For the first time since such trends have been measured, Oklahoma now has as many former smokers as current smokers.
OK, maybe you didn't have to sit down to read that. But for a state that has consistently tallied higher-than-average tobacco-use rates -- and a state that has paid a higher-than-average price for the habit -- that is a rather stunning development.
There's more. Last year, again for the first time since such measurements have been taken, Oklahoma's tobacco-use rate among adults fell below 25 percent. It was a very slight decline, but still a decline. The national rate hovers between 19-20 percent.
With the federal tobacco tax set to rise dramatically on Wednesday -- by 62 cents a pack -- many Oklahoma tobacco-users are following in the footsteps of other former smokers and making a concerted effort to quit. If their efforts prove successful, there soon could be more good news on this front.
And in a state that consistently ranks near the bottom in health measures and near the top in illness-related consequences, any good news is welcome.
But sadly, there's as much bad news on the tobacco front. While declines have been noted among adults and teen males, increased usage has been seen among teen females and in the 18-24 age bracket in recent years. Use of smokeless tobacco has not declined.
And in some populations, usage remains horrifyingly high. Tribal authorities have estimated usage in some Indian communities in excess of 40 percent.

Tobacco History: Cigarettes and Literature | The Social History of SmokingGeorge Latimer AppersonChapter 7:Fielding himself smoked his pipe. When his play "The Wedding Day" was produced by Garrick in 1743, various suggestions were made to the author as to the excision of certain passages, and the modification of one of the scenes. Garrick pressed for certain omissions, but—"No, damn them," said Fielding, "if the scene is not a good one, let them find that out"; and then, according to Murphy, he retired to the green-room, where, during the progress of the play, he smoked his pipe and drank champagne. Presently he heard the sound of hissing, and when Garrick came in and explained that the audience had hissed the scene he had wished to have modified, all Fielding said was: "Oh, damn them, they have found it out, have they!"
Simon Fraser, Lord Lovat, the crafty old Jacobite who took part in the rising of 1745 and who was executed on Tower Hill in 1747, was a smoker. The pipe which he was reported to have smoked on the evening before his execution, together with his snuff-box and a canvas tobacco-bag, were for many years in the possession of the Society of Cogers, the famous debating society of Fleet Street.

The following story was told nearly twenty years ago of the late Duke of Devonshire. An American tourist began talking one day to a quiet-looking man who was smoking outside an inn on the Chatsworth estate, and, taking the man for the inn-keeper, expressed his admiration of the Duke of Devonshire's domain. "Quite a place, isn't it?" said the American. "Yes, a pleasant place enough," returned the Englishman. "The fellow who owns it must be worth a mint of money," said the American, through his cigar-smoke. "Yes, he's comfortably off," agreed the other. "I wonder if I could get a look at the old chap," said the stranger, after a short silence; "I should like to see what sort of a bird he is." Puff, puff, went the English cigar, and then said the English voice, trying hard to control itself: "If you"-puff-"look hard"-puff, puff-"in this direction, you"-puff, puff-"can tell in a minute." "You, you!" faltered the American, getting up, "why, I thought you were the landlord!" "Well, so I am," said the Duke, "though I don't perform the duties." "I stay here," he added, with a twinkle in his eye, "to be looked at."
