Funny thing, human nature! As a rule the chap that doesn’t drink insists that nobody else should drink; the non-theatre goer disapproves of anyone else going to the theatre; the party that doesn't read novels or play cards objects to anyone else reading novels or playing cards; while the man that hates tobacco indignantly demands that everyone else should hate tobacco.

When smoking proves injurious it's because there’s too much nicotine in the tobacco. Our New Zealand tobaccos (produced by the National Tobacco Co., Ltd., pioneers of the N.Z. tobacco industry) are practically free from the poison. Unlike all other tobaccos, these brands are all toasted. Hence their freedom from nicotine and their delicious flavour and fragrance.
