“Tobacco has been one of the great-1 ost blessings of my life,” declared Geo. R. Sims, the ■well-known journalist and dramatist, on one occasion, and he went one to say that although cigarette and had their attraction for him he founa “after all there’s nothing like a briar.” Judging by the popularity of the pipe countless smokers agree with him. Here in New Zealand, despite the rivalry of the cigarette, the pipe still holds its own. As for the weed the demand for “toasted’’ points conclusively to the almostuniversal preference for these beautiful tobaccos, the most delicious, the most soothing and the least harmful of any. Why “the least harmful?” Simply because they are practically free from nicotine, removed by toasting. Thus their purity is assured. There are only five brands of the original “toasted.” Three—Cavendish, Naw Cui No. 3 (Bulldog) and Cut Plug No. 10 (Dullshcad)—a''e unequalled for the pipe, while tire other two, Riverhead Gold and Desei t Gold, make the choicest of all cigarettes, as those who roll their own long since , discovered.
