Conservation of Paper
Measures taken to conserve supplies of paper have extended to the employment of brown paper for the taking of associates’ notes in the Supreme Court. In many cases coming before the court all the evidence is typed by the associate to the presiding judge and, in the course of a year, a considerable amount of paper is used in this way. A Wellington tobacconist tells the tale! An elderly lady asked him to change a pound note for silver. He had to go next door to get it for her. When he handed it over she presented him with a tract, "Stop Smoking!” The weed merchant reckons this was “the blooming limit!” “Anti-tobacs are queer fish. They generally consider all tobacco of satanic origin and all smokers degenerates. ‘Theirs not to reason why’!" As a matter of sober fact, and taking one consideration with another, really good and pure tobacco usually does far more good than harm. Take our popular toasted brands for example—Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold—and you’ll find they’re actually beneficial Lq innumerable cases. The two last are the leading cigarette tobaccos produced }n this or any other country. The toasting purifies, enhances flavour and bouquet, and largely eliminates the poisonous nicotine. New brands come and new brands go. But “Toasted” will "go on for ever!’’*
