\n English tourist while “doing the Waikato recently was « ur P" and disgusted to notice so many Maori women enjoying their pipes. On his, return to Auckland h e mentioned the matter to an old colonist remarking that it was a sure sign , IIT degeneracy of the Maori • race when their wonen smoked pipes, bald the New Zealander : “Well, •if that is so, the Irish women of the working class must have been degenerating for a good while because I remember seeing them smoking clays in Dublin when I was a boy.” The tourist said no more. There is.nothing' wrong with pipe smoking for man or woman so long as the right tobacco is used. Choose a brar.J a?, f”*9 from nicotine as you can. That’s all. Our New Zealand-grown tobaccos contain only a trifling percentage of nicotine and you can’t beat them for flavour and aroma. You can. smoke them for hours and they won’t do you any harm. Ask for “Riverhead Gold,” mild ; “Navy Cut” (Bulldog), medium ; or “Cut Plug No. 10” (Bullhead), full strength.—4l.
