Everv morning between say 8.30 and 9.30 many thousands of Maorilanders are doing precisely the same thing—enjoying their after-breakfast smoke. Where does all the tobacco come from? Mm h comes from overseas, of course. But you’d be astonished if you knew what a lot is now* grown and manufactured within the Dominion. This “toasted New Zealand,” as it is popularly known, is used in preference to any* other tobacco by* a multitude of smokers. And the demand is constantly increasing. “The reason why’’ is simply this; the five famous brands, Narv Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish.Riverhead Gold, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullsheadl and Desert Gobi are not only of the very finest quality, with a flavour and aroma keenly* appreciated by smokers, but are practically free from nicotine, which means —mark this —that they do not cause smokers’ throat, irritation, cough, nerve, or heart trouble. Many find that after smoking a. couple of pipes they have to stop. Can’t manage more at a time. But von can smoke as many pipes of “toasted” as you please. It’s harmless.
