Some men will play a fancy price for a pipe because they like its shape, or admire its mount. Yet the most expensive pipe you can buy gets foul just as quickly as the humble “briar” you can get anywhere for a shilling. It’s not the pipe that matters half so much as the tobacco you burn in it. Many doctors are heavy smokers; but being doctors they are generally careful to see their tobacco is pure, i.e., as free from nicotine as they can get it. Nicotine is a most insidious poison, and is at. the root of all trouble caused by smoking. Pure tobacco never did anyone any harm. It’s the brands reeking with nicotine—as all the imported brands are—that should be avoided. Happily for New Zealand smokers the tobaccos grown and manufactured in this country are piactically free from nicotine, owing to their being toasted. There are only Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10—all of them the world’s best—Advt.
33 Years of Age, but looks no more than 29 since using Rachel Hair Tonic. 3/6 bottle Parkinson and Co Chemists.—Advt. "
