Told that smoking shortened life, Ulysses Grant, the famous American General, said he didn't care if it did. "Looking back," he said, "at the comfort which smoking hag given me I'll say that even if VI knew tobacco was shortening my days I wouldn't give it up." Smoking shortens life? —tell it to the Marines! Good tobacco never yet shortened life. It's more likely to prolong it. Brands foul with nicotine may undermine the health, and often do, for nicotine is deadly. But you run no risk if you smoke "toasted." The five famous brands, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold are all subject to the manufacturers' own toasting process and emerge from it practically free from nicotine. There's no "bite" left in toasted. And it possesses a flavour and aroma you'll look for in vain in other tobaccos. The brands enumerated are the world's purest. They are unique. No matter which you're accustomed .to smoke, once you change over to toasted it will be for life. *
