I Upon entering one of Berlin's large ipicture theatres one's attention immediately is attracted by a low buzzing 1 sound; at the same time one discovers a strange fish-shaped metal body suspended by a long rope from the ceiling, whirling around in a circle over the heads of the audience. Each time it passes the seats on the balcony—and it passes so near that one could almost catch it with the hand —it leaves a fine aroma in its wake. It is a new air purifier, which is the delight of all who visit this motion-picture theatre. Shortly before the performance begins its humming ceases, its circles become smaller, and slowly it is drawn up to the ceiling.

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