“Is smoking injurious?” Dr Giotti, the famous Italian nerve specialist, says it entirely depends on the tobacco. He states that many of the well-known American brands are so rich in nicotine that they are best avoided, because their constant use is bound to cause nerve trouble. He considers smoking may be actually beneficial under the proper conditions. His advice to smokers is: “Select a brand that while satisfying your ‘tobacco hunger’ is yet practically free from nicotine.” But it is not always easy to find such tobaccos. However, we certainly have them right here in Hew Zealand. They are grown and Ihe leaf is cured and manufactured for •he marked within Ihe Dominion. In •act, tobacco cullure and manufacture, now constitute one of our most promising industries. Moreover, our New Zealand-grown tobaccos arc so pure and relatively so free from nicotine that they quite fulfil the Italian specialist's conditions. They may be obtained from any tobacconist. Ask for “ divert lead Gold,” mild: “Navy Gut” ■'Bulldog), medium: m- “Gut Plug no. 10” {Puilishead), full strength. *
