Lost in the bush, half-starved, and no tobacco! Such was the plight of George Cross, a young new chum who went for a day’s shooting up in the mountains near Perth (W.A.). He kept himself alive by shooting small birds, and when his tobacco gave out tried to smoke dried leaves —but couldn’t. Rescued at last, George tells how glorious was the first real smoke he’d had for three weeks. Smokers who’ve never had to go without can’t realise what enforced abstinence from tobacco means. Try it yourself, and see how long it will be before you’re making tracks for the nearest tobacconist’s and asking for “toasted’’— I the famous blends which afford so much comfort and enjoyment to thousands of smokers every day! These tobaccos are not only the most delicious but the least harmful. The toasting does it! The genuine toasted, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold, are to be found in almost everybody’s pipe or cigarette. But beware of imitations when buying. They’re “no earthly!” —Advt.
