Once upon a time cigarettes were smoked principally by small boys, generally when no one was looking. Now millions of people smoke them and nothing else. The name cf the brands of cigarettes on the market is legion. But the best plan is to roll your own. A particularly pure and fragrant tobacco for this purpose is the “Three Diamonds” variety. The leaf, from which this brand is manufactured, is grown in the Hawke’s Bay district, and is scentifically cured 1 and thoroughly matured to a nut brown color, the' resulting flavor being peculiarly mild and mellow. Unlike many yellow brands from oversea, this brown tobacco is entirely free from bite, and; leaves the -mouth sweet and clean. The proof of the pudding is in the eating. The proof of tup cigarette is in the smoking. Try a pouch of “Three Diamonds” and be convinced. -There is no increase in price, one shilling will buy a big stout bag that will do for 50 full-sized cigarettes, so consider what you are saving.* ■
