Mrs Hills, an Auckland lady who not so long since celebrated her hundred and second birthday, doesn’t seem to have much time for the modern girl. Interviewed by a pressman and asked what she thought of the cigarette habit for young ladies, she replied: “The hussies! We didn’t smoke when I was a girl—our mothers saw to that!” But girls didn’t do a Tot of things when Mrs Hills was young which they do now, and think nothing of. As for cigarettes, the safe way is to follow the fashion and smoke either Riverhead Gold or Desert Gold, the two most popular brands with the “roll-your-own” brigade. They are toasted, which remarkable process purges them effectually of excess nicotine,, and at the same time greatly enhances tlieir flavour and aroma. For men smokers who prefer the pipe there are three toasted blends of superlative excellence —Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish and Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), also tailormades —Riverhead and Desert Gold. All toasted, aful no sore throat, no cough! ; lx
