“When I retire,” writes “Shipmate” in “Adventure,” “I’ll settle down in New Zealand, whence I have only just returned after touring both Islands. It’s a lovely country with its wealth of scenic attractions and natural wonders of one kind and another, and not the least of its attractions, at any rate to an old smoker like myself, is its splendid tobacco, so full of fragrance and of such rare quality that almost every other man I met while knocking about seemed to be smoking it. This, by the way, is the only toasted tobacco manufactured, and if you are curious as to what toasting does, I will tell you: it t eliminates the nicotine, or most of it, from the leaf, and you get a smoke absolutely unequalled for purity.
