He considers smoking may be actually beneficial under the proper conditions. His advice to smokers is: "Select a brand that while satisfying your 'tobaccohunger' is yet practically free from nicotine." But it is not always easy to find such tobaccos.

In fact, tobacco culture and manufacture now constitute one of our most promising industries, Moreover, our New Zealand grown tobaccos are so pure and relatively (Bull's Head) a fine full flavoured to free from nicotine that they quite fulfil the Italian specialist's conditions. They may be obtained from any tobacconist. Ask for "Riverhead gold,"' mild; "Navy Cut" (Bulldog), medium; or "Cut Plug No. 10" (Bullshead), full strength.* A novel excuse for being late at. school was supplied to a Wnnganui teacher recently by a small boy who said In- =a\v the sign "School, go slowly." and thought he ought to obey it.
