There's no use kidding ourselves. Nothing is like the cigarette habit. And it makes little difference in the long run whether it is de-nicotinized or filtered with a filter tip—some nicotine and coal tar get in your mouth and down your throat, no matter what precau­tions you may try to take.

No habit is quite as demanding, either. Scientists call a man a "moderate" smoker if he smokes from fifteen to twenty-five cigarettes a day. A "heavy" smoker consumes twenty-five or more a day. Many heavy smokers go through from two to three packs a day.

For a moment let's assume that you smoke a pack a day. A cigarette "lasts" about seven minutes. To begin with, then, 140 minutes of your day—two hours and twenty minutes of your day—are partially occupied by this habit.

More time than that, however, is involved. The cigarettes have to be bought, placed in pocket or purse, fished out when desired, popped from the pack, and then lit.

Would it be fair to say that almost three hours of your day are in some part devoted to your habit, if you're only a "moderate" smoker? Can you think of any other habit that occupies that much time?

Psychologists have long known that it's nearly im­possible to break a habit unless you can substitute an­other habit for the old, unwanted one. The person who bites his nails is often told to substitute the less noxious habit of chewing gum. But can you think of any other habit that will fill three hours of your day?

Furthermore, smoking is not just one habit... it is, for the regular smoker, a part of many habitual things he does throughout the day.
