HEIR TO £40,000. A young city mail was rather :istounded at the news that his aunt had died and left him something in the vicinity of fortv thousand pounds. He recovered sufficiently from his shock, however, to give up his position ut the office, buy a Bentley Sports Modelj nn<i take a flat ih town. He treated his old friends well. They ire always welcome to the wine in Ins cupboards* -the cigars and cigarettes on his smoking table. No one, however, has ever seen him smoke one of those expensive cigars so invitingly placed for his guests. No, he prefers a pipe—and Luxury tobacco. "Of course—Luxury tobacco," you say. "Of course, he can afford itl" But you're wrong. Luxury, though a quality tobacco, costs no more than the cheapest brands. Try it to-day. Barlow Bros., Christchurch, New Zealand Distributors - •. —5
