“ And now a word or two about the New Zealand tobacco,” wrote Mr Abel Snodgrass in a London trade journal recently. “.‘Well,, (ruth to tell,■ xt was unaware that New Zealand was amongst tobacco-producing countries until I visited the Dominion last year.

It boasts a peculiarly fine flavour and a bouquet you’d find it- hard to beat. Also—note this —owing to it. being toasted, it contains scarcely any nicotine. Consequently it does not cause throat irritation, of affect heart or nerves. You can smoke it ‘ from early morn till dewy eve ’ without the slightest fear of consequences. It is’ as i safe as it is alluring. Naturally it is very popular. Nearly jwerv man I met seemed to be smoking itr* Mr Snodgrass (an authority on tobacco) might have added that there are five brands only of the genuine toasted: Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, and Cut Plug No. 10 (Bulkhead) ; also tailomiades. —[Advt.j
