Curiosity is frequently expressed by srrokers when told that the New Zealand tobaccos grown and manufactured by the National Tobacco Co., Ltd., (pioneers of the tobacco industry in' N.Z.) are toasted." "Why toasted?" they will ask. The explanation is simple. Toasting serves two purposes. ( ; 1) It helps materially to eliminate the nicotine in the leaf ; (2) it develops flavour and bouquet. Imported tobaccos contain far too much nicotine to render their habitual use safe. Toasted tobaccos on the other hand, are perfectly safe because most of their nicotine con'tent is destroyed. Hence they may bo freely indulged in without fear of consequences and as for flavour | and aroma, toasting brings out both surprisingly. There are, indeed, no purer or sweeter tobaccos and no tobaccos so innocuous as those referred to. 'Not only superior to the imported, they are also cheaper. Favour ite brands: "Riverhead Gold", a beautiful, mild arormtic ; "Navy Cut No. 3" a choice medium ; "Cavendish" (the sportsman's smoke) another finei medium, and "Cut Plug- No. 10", a full-flavoured sort of rare excel- , lence. 28
