THE PUREST CIGARETTES.

POPULAR HAND-MADE "SWEET BUDS." SPECIAL BALE OF TOBAOCOS. Although we all -appreciate that we have to eat a peck of dirt before we die, no smoker, however much lie enjoys the fragrant weed, is willing to take the risk of attempting to accommodate cigarette sand in his lungs. Mr. YV. F. ■faniieson. the well-known tobacconist, just 'beyond the S.Z. Insurance Co.'s Buildings, a considerable time ago discovered that many of the imported machine-made cigarettes were injurious to health, and therefore decided to specialise in hand-made cigarettes for the benefit of His numerous customers. "Swept Bud" cigarettes are made with cleaned highest grade Virginian tobacco — the best on the market —and are guaranteed to -be free from .sand impurity. Being made on the premises "Sweet Buds" are sold at Sd per packet. Smokers of good cigarettes prefer "Sweet Buds" for their freshness and flavour. At the present time Mr. Jamieson is holding a special Easter sale of pipe tobaccos—'Log Cabin. Player's Navy Cut, Capstan Mixture. Autograph, Country Life. Waverley Mixture, Glas<gow Mixture, Tortoiseshell and Beeswing —all at big reductions in prices which should be an inducement to smokers in town and country. A variety of lines of bis own cutting and blending are offered by Mr. Jamieson at 9d per ounce. Cigarette tobaccos and other choice brands to suit the needs of smokers are also stocked at the popular shops at Do. Queen Street, and also at Three Lamps, Ponson'by. Orders by mail from country clients also receive promptest attention.

STARCH.

PURE RICE QUALITY. RECOGNISED THE BEST. It is surprising how many people buy star<*h by the bulk with no knowledge of its brand or properties, nor recognition of the fact that there are all qualities of starches. "Sylvia Starch" is claimed, not 'without justification, to be one of the best starches in the world. Of it the "Laundry Guide" states: "It is of the greatest importance that in all laundry work a pure star<-h should lie used, and in our experience we have found that the best results are got i from using "Sylvia Starch." This starch. is manufactured only from rice, and the greatest care is always exercised in the selection of materials and their preparation. All laundry workers know that there is no other starch to compare with this famous brand, and that the use of any other inferior article —such for instance as that made from flour, maize, etc.—spells more work, the use of larger quantities and much inferior, results. Starch not being in daily use in every home the manufacturers, to meet these special times of economy, put this brand up in lib boxes, so it is to the advantage? of the housewife to always purchase "Sylvia Starch," put up i n this form.

PURE SOAP.

BOOK TO ALL HOUSEKEEPERS. PREVENTS CHAPPED HANDS. In every home from the cottage to the palace soap is a daily necessity, and with the many changes in domestic; methods has come a corresrponding demand for a better quality soap. One of the modern housekeeper's most important needs is a soap which will lighten her labour "and at the same time help 10 preserve the smoothness of the hands. These demands have been, fully met by; the famous "Taniwha" brand, which is widely recognised for its mild and pure qualities. Being manufactured from the purest materials, such as best tallow and cocoanut oil, it is highly adapted for the bath as well as for -washing the most delicate fabrics. The remarkable growth and demand for ""Taniwha Soap" is of special importance to the Auckland province, since hundreds of tons of tallow are required annually by the manufacturers. Many women in"the country—and especially dairying districts—who assist in farm work, have recently pressed great satisfatrtion with this soap which, being free from injurious adul- \ terants and chemicals, has proved a great boon in preventing the hands from chapping with milking in cold weather. It has been aptly termed "the golden bar of purity."'

CANDLES,

PUBLIC SHOULD AVOID UOHTWBIOHT PACKAOBS. Apart from the patriotic aspect of patronising a lo<-al firm of muni.'facturers is the more potent consideration of the buyer being thus able, in most instances, to secure a superior article. Take, for instance, the unsophisticated housekeeper wiho goes forth to purchase a packet of candles. At the store she merely asks for "a packet of candles." She may he handed a packet which, to the casual buyer, looks the same as anyother packet: but in investigation mi<*ht reveal the fact that they are only 12oz candles instead of 160z." Those" four ; ounces make a considerable difference.

yet one may. go into a shop any day and ' find 12oz packets of candle?, which have I been imported. The candles manufactured in Auckland by the local company on the other hand, such as the wellknow and popular --Rritish Wax" brand are without exception llioz packets. Since candles are almost a daily necessity, it will l>e readily seen what the thrifty householder loses through a c cepting light-weight packages. This matter wias considered so important that the Board of Trade recently drew public attention to it.
