The fastest flight is now 90 minutes. New lines start pfmg in the summer propose to r 'ut the flight to one hour. A ragged old fellow, charged at Melbourne with stealing a tin of tobacco from a grocer’s shop owned up, nut pleaded that he was an old smoker and sometimes when he had no moner suffered acutely from tobacco-hun-ger.” So when he went to the grocer’s to make some small purchase and saw the tobacco on the counter the temptation proved irresistible, and ne fell for it! Taking his age into account and that he was unknown to the police the magistrate discharged him with a caution. It appeared that he was 85, and had been smoking for nearly 70 years. Anti-tobaccoites please note. Wonder what he’s been smoking all these years? Must be something like our celebrated “New Zealand Toasted.” You can smqke this beautiful tobacco till you are 85; if you like. It can’t hurt you because therfe’s so little nicotine in it. And it’s so soothing and comforting! * Five brands only, remember!: Cavendish, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead). Navv Cut No. 3 (Bulldog). Desert Gold and Riverhead Gold. But watch out for worthless imitations!
