A little fancy bowl of snuff ex~^^. hibited in the window of a city tobac-^^^^'-conist the other day in Auckland attracted some attention. Snuffirig has so long been out of date it is ' t hard to realise that in days gone by it was as popular as smoking is now. Will smoking ever go but Of date? Well, there seems small likelihood; of that for every year shows an in- ; creased consumption all, the world _«. ■ over of 'the soothing weed." Formerly all the tobacco consumed in New Zealand had to be imported. . But the coming of "toasted" has altered all that, and at the present time the heavy demand for the five renowned toasted blends, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Riverhead Gold, and Desert Gold is a tribute-to the success achieved by the manufacturers in producing tobacco not only of the choicest quality flavour and bouquet, but comparatively harmless owing to the elimination of most of its nicotine by the unique toasting process employed. There are no , better or purer tobaccos manufac- ' tured that those enumerated. *
