At Wanganui Police Court, Mr Barton, S.M., was asked to make an order against a defaulting debtor, because ho was spending 1/G a week on tobacco! His Worship was reported to say: “I can see no more reason for cutting off debtor’s tobacco than for cutting off the sugar in his tea.” The magistrate apparently recognised that the habitual smoker would go without tea altogether rather than give up his pipe. To a great many men tobacco is not a luxury—it is a necessity. Tobacco haters say it is highly injurious. It isn’t so long as it’s pure and good. Imported brands, everyone knows, contain far too much nicotine to be safe. But it is totally different with the New Zealand tobaccos. Being toasted—as no other tobaccos are—they are freed from nicotine poison and rendered quite harmless even though you smoko them to excess. There are several brands —every smoker knows “Cut Plug No. 10,” “Riverhead Gold,” “Navy Cut” and “Cavendish,” and knows, moreover, how good they are. 96
