After more than a decade of the warning above, the warnings on
cigarette boxes have been changed.  There are now four different
warnings, designed to alert smokers to some of the specific 
problems connected with smoking, which must be printed on the
boxes on a rotating basis, switching every three months.  The
warnings all begin "SURGEON GENERAL'S WARNING:" and then go roughly
as follows:

(1) Smoking by pregnant woman may result in low birth rate or
fetal injury.

(2) Smoking can cause emphysema, lung disease, and heart problems.

(3) Quitting smoking now greatly reduces dangers of ill health.

(4) Tobacco smoke contains carbon monoxide.

I don't recall the exact wording, but this is the idea.
