Mark Twain once said: "Woman is a, conundrum—but I will never give I her up!" This was in allusior to the I changeable views of the adorable sex. j The sex is certainly apt to alter its I point of view. Time was when ladies '' couldn 't bear tobacco smoke —s aid it made them "ill." In those days father and the boys had to seek the seclusion of the coal-house or the backyard when they wanted a whiff. Nowadays the girls—young, old and middleaged—will tell you when tobaccosmoke is mentioned that they "love it!" Well, there are worse habits than smoking, and so long as the "baccy" is good and not overcharged with nicotine it won't hurt anyone. Apropos of that, it's a pity the import!ed tobaccos are so full of nicotine. How ,is it? Our New Zealand brands are ali most free from it. You can smoke i them '' till further orders '' and take no harm. Sweet, cool and fragrant, they appeal irresistibly to all Smokers. All tobacconists stock, them. Ask for "Biverhead Gold" (mild). "Navy Cut" (Bulldog) medium or "Cut Plug No. 10" (Bullshead) full strength, obtainable from all leading stores and tobacconists. 72
