Cigarette and Tobacco News:MATTHEWS: Women's Health: Smoking is far deadlier than the swine fluRead complete article: Muskogeephoenix.com (OK), 2009-05-07 Author: Dr. Janet Matthews
Review: everyone seems to be very concerned about a disease which so far hasn't appeared in our state, while seeming very unconcerned about a health threat which kills more than 6,000 Oklahomans annually: Smoking.
I know that I've written about smoking before in this column -- last August, in fact. So why harp on the subject again so soon?
You can blame the Centers for Disease Control and their number crunchers for my return to the painful subject. The CDC has recently released state-specific smoking statistics for the period 2000 to 2004, and Oklahoma's numbers aren't looking too good. . . .
The only good news in the CDC Oklahoma smoking report is that Oklahoma female smokers are trying to quit. More women tried to quit during the recent reporting period than had attempted it before. They all need a pat on the back, and if you know any of these women I hope you'll provide the same.
The task of dealing with smoking as a public health issue begins with awareness. The consequences of smoking do not, as most smokers would have us believe, stop at the cigarette.

Tobacco History: Cigarettes and Literature | The Social History of Smoking
George Latimer Apperson
Chapter 3: One of the most curious of the early publications on tobacco, in which an attempt is made to hold the balance fairly between the legitimate use and the "licentious" abuse of the herb, is Tobias Venner's tract with the long-winded title: "A Brief and Accurate Treatise concerning The taking of the Fume of tobacco, Which very many, in these dayes doe too licenciously use. In which the immoderate, irregular, and unseasonable use thereof is reprehended, and the true nature and best manner of using it, perspicuously demonstrated." Venner described himself as a doctor of physic in Bath, and his tract was published in London in 1637. Venner says that tobacco is of "ineffable force" for the rapid healing of wounds, cuts, sores and so on, by external application, but thinks little of its use for any other purpose. Like others of his school, he attacks the "licentious Tobacconists [smokers] who spend and consume, not only their time, but also their health, wealth, and witts in taking of this loathsome and unsavorie fume." He admits the popularity of the herb, but expresses his own personal objection to the "detestable savour or smack that it leaveth behind upon the taking of it"; from which one is inclined to surmise that the doctor's first pipe was not an entire success. With an evident desire to be fair, Venner, notwithstanding his dislike of the "savour," refuses to condemn tobacco utterly, because of what he considers its valuable medicinal qualities, and he goes so far as to give "10 precepts in the use of" tobacco.
The sixth is "that you drink not between the taking of the fumes, as our idle and smoakie Tobacconists are wont"—there must be no alliance, in short, between the pipe and the cheerful glass. The tenth and last precept is "that you goe not abroad into the aire presently [immediately] upon the taking of the fume, but rather refrain therefrom the space of halfe an houre, or more, especially if the season be cold, or moist." The suggestion that the smoker, when he has finished his pipe, shall wait for half an hour or so before he ventures into the outer air is very quaint.

Chapter 2:
Tobacco was smoked by all classes and in almost all places. It was smoked freely in the streets. In some verses prefixed to an edition of Skelton's "Elinour Rumming" which appeared in 1624, the ghost of Skelton, who was poet-laureate to King Henry VIII, was made to say that he constantly saw smoking:
As I walked between
Westminster Hall
And the Church of Saint Paul,
And so thorow the citie,
Where I saw and did pitty
My country men's cases,
With fiery-smoke faces,
Sucking and drinking
A filthie weede stinking.
Tobacco-selling was sometimes curiously combined with other trades. A Fleet Street tobacconist of this time was also a dealer in worsted stockings. A mercer of Mansfield who died at the beginning of 1624, and who apparently carried on business also at Southwell, had a considerable stock of tobacco. In the Inventory of all his "cattalles and goods" which is dated 24 January 1624, there is included "It. in Tobacco 19.li 0. 0." Nineteen pounds' worth of tobacco, considering the then value of money, was no small stock for a mercer-tobacconist to carry.
