: A Dunedin man laughingly akcd his tobacconist if he had any tobacco that wouldn't bite the tongue. He seemed '. to think he was asking an impossibil- [ ity. But the tobacconist promptly rc- . i plied that he had several brands guar- ■ antecd to fill the bill. "All the toast- . ed New Zealand tobaccos," h e said ■ "are like that —won't burn the tongue ■ even if vou smoke them for hours at a stretch. Won't affect heart ot L nerves, either. That's because they " are toasted. Th c toasting kills the nicotine to sucH a large extent that they are rendered harmless, and quite safe to smoke to any extent. They have a delicious flavour, too. and a bouquet you can't beat." "What are the names of thc brands?" was the I next question. "Riverhead Gold." "Cavendish." "Navy Cut No. 3.7 a »tl r "Cut Plug No. to," replied the. tobacconist, "tlicy are the only toasted t kinds manufactured, and far better - than the imported which contain , f more nicotine than is good for any f smoker." The customer'lnvested in ;, a tin of toasted Navy Cut. Now' he -mokes nothing else.
