: Some interesting. pattichla¥s ; about smo.king figured in?, a London correspondent’s letter tcf a New' Zealand paper the other day. The writer (claiming to know), declares Thajt English women are the heaviest smokers of their sex, flic world over; that soldiers and outdoor workers are the heaviest male smokers in England; and that English parsons smoke more than any other class of professional men. As -for tobacco (this has been noted before) there is less demand for the coarser brands than formerly, tho general preference now being] for better quality lines. Tho same tendency, it is interesting to . note, is in evidence in New Zealand; and has been ever since “toasted”;, made- its appearance. In fact, the. five toasted brands. Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cay.e n ' dish, lliverbead Gold and 'Desert Gold, may be said to have educated the public taste, and created a demnd for “the best.” Not .'Only are these five blends of tho highest grade, hut being-practically free from nico- i tine (eliminated by .toasting) tbcyjgl cannot harm tho smoker even though he smokos to excess!
