“Smoking is an agreeable vice,” writes Professor Ludenhall in an English review. Well, come to that, most vices are “agreeable.” But if smoking is a vice, it is assuredly the parent of some virtues. Doesn’t it aid reflection (and digestion!), tranquillise the mind, help the brainworker, and drive dull care away? If it doesn’t there’s something wrong with the tobacco. Yon can go nap on that! Some brands (overloaded with nicotine), it must be admitted, are not safe to smoke. They may wreck the nerves, affect the heart, or play up with you in some other way, although you may not realise it until it’s too latejmd the mischief’s done. Six brands there are, though, which will never let you down —Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bjilldog), Pocket Edition, Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold and Cavendish; also Riverhead and Desert Gold tailormades.. All toasted-, and no sore throat, no cough! lx
