(he Man Who
Changed a Nation's
/ Smoking Habits
I N the year 1884, on April 20th,
1 a machine in Durham, South
Carolina, put in a ten-hour day,
working perfectly, and turning out
cigarettes at the rate of two hun-
dred a minute. A man stood watch-
ing it, and wondering how he could
sell as many cigarettes as that ma-
chine and others like it could make,
On a lowering October day in
1925, less than forty-two years later,
that same man was buried from
a gleaming white Georgian mansion
on Fifth Avenue, in New York. As
that funeral procession started
slowly down Fifth Avenue, James
Buchanan Duke left behind him an
industry of which he was the mas- i
ter, and two hundred million dollars.
In the leading limousine of the sixty
or more that made up the proces-
sion, rode his widow and his tall,
thirteen-year-old daughter, who was
to become known as the richest girl
in the world.
And in that year of 1925, a hun-
dred BILLION cigarettes were man-
ufactured and sold in the United
States.
In Cosmopolitan for July, John
K. Winkler tells the fascinating
man who, more than
any other, was responsible for this
treat industry. Tobacco Tycoon, Mr.
Winkler calls him, and tycoon he
was.
Starting in the raw, rude years
following the Civil War little Buck
Duke, then fourteen years old, was
already superintendent of his fath-
er’s little factory in Durham. When
he died, James Buchanan Duke had
changed a nation’s smoking habits;
had built an empire of tobacco,
water power and aluminum — had
endowed a great university which
bore his name, and had created an-
other saga of an American farmsr'i,
son who mads goo-1

not fooling anyone—not even your-
self.
This year you’ll see some new
faces, and in the July Cosmopolitan
Ceroid Frank introduces some of
them to us.
There is Emmet Kelly — a new
style in clowns. Kelly is a SAD
clown. He is so sad that little boys,
touched to the heart, have been
known to march up to him and offer
Fim their last fistful of peanuts.
When this occurs, Kelly knows he’s

the audience bet each other they can
gnakc him laugh. They always lose

of rounds of ammunition—all for

That’s what the arrival of a con

After the apprehension and the
dire warnings of the terrors of the-
oretic winter, imagine his surprise
on leaving Scotland, to run into the
warm Gulf Stream air, cairn seas
clear skies and milk temperatures
Then there were the conglomerate
aspect of his fellow travelers. Half »
dozen young Polish officers in baggy
trousers, Bmoking cigarettes in long
’holders, and incessantly playing
cards while listening to the H.B.C
church services. The little Fro*
French diplomat with an appetitt
like a cormorant, and the middle
aged Free French general, enor
mously dignified, impeccably uni
formed, with the exactly right rib-
bons, who was very seasick, which is
hard on dignity. ^
Then Murmansk itself, consisting
of rows of little wooden houses, the
■waterside factories, the high gov-
ernment buildings and the streets
all under a deep eiderdown of snow
And the unloading into willing and
eager Russian hands topped by smil-
ing Russian faces, of the sinews of
war! O

VJT has to be shelved for thJ
; duration. But that is no reason why j
iwomen should not look their prev I

try a debt of femininity for inspire
ation and morale.
Every woman wants a good figj
ure, and having a good figure means! 1
keeping fit and building up your rej
sistance. Make yourself a perfect
12, 14 or 16. You’ll save time and
money, and you’ll make inexpensive
clothes look like a million and keep
the expensive ones in good shape.

you should and shouldn’t eat; but if ;
you don’t, ask your doctor and stick' ,
to his advice, (b) Watch your rest.
|A minimum of eight hours’ sleep

(c) Drink at least six glasses of;
