Greymouth Evening Star, 11 August 1930, Page 10

Mrs Brown tossed the evening paper aside, and, addresing her hubby, remarked: “The paper sez all we gotter do if we wants good times back is to work ’ard arid chuck all luxuries. ’Ow abaht you chucking your bacca?” “Ah,” said Mr Brown, “and ’ow abaht you chucking goin’ to the Pickshers regular?” “And give up the only bit of enjoyment I ’ave?” replied Mrs Brown indignantly. “Not on your life!” “Well, smoking is the on’y bit of enjoyment I ’ave? 'replied Mr Brown, “and I’ll see —” —but never mind what Mr Brown said he would see. He’s like a heap of others, smoking is his only joy! Harmless enough, too, so long as the baccy’s pure. Most of the foreign brands are not. Foul with nicotine. Queer, too, because our N.Z. tobaccos are practically free from the poison. But then they are toasted. No others are. Toasting makes them safe to smoke to any extent. Gives them their flue flavour and bouquet, too. There are only four brands — Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10. — Advt.
