“Wild Oats,” the attractive title of a book by Eric Muspratt, is good reading. Amongst his adventures was a trip round the. Horn, before the ihast, in one of the old “windjam-Half-way Home the ship ran out of tobacco —and consternation reigned in the fo’castle. One day the bosun, ruhimaging in his old sea chest, found a long-forgotten packet of cigarettes and offered them to his shipmates at sixpence each! They were snapped up before you could say “wink!” Another time (when ashore) v Eric had to go without tobacco for several weeks. Picture his joy when he had his first smoke after that! Stay-at-homes who have never had to go without tobacco for a single day don’t realise their luck! Here in N.Z. you can get the finest tobacco manufactured —Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Pocket Edition, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold, at the nearest tobacconist’s shop, and they’re not only famed for flavour and aroma, but practically free from nicotine because they’re toasted. There’s enjoyment in every whiff.—l4o. —Advt.
