Does smoking shorten life? Tobac-co-haters say “yes.” But the deaths of centenarian smokers, so frequently chronicled in the papers, tell another story. So does the fact that many doctors are heavy smokers. The harmfulness or otherwise ol smoking depends entirely on the tobacco. Some brands are deadly if you smoke them regularly. Full of nicotine! Most imported tobaccos are like that. Ou r New Zealand brands, on the other hand, are almost free from nicotine. You can smoke them all day, and every day, with impunity. They are the product of the National Tobacco Company Ltd. (pioneers of the New Zealand tobacco industry) and are the only toasted tobaccos, which process absorbs most of the nicotine, and thus purified, sweeter, cooler, or more fragrant tobaccos money cartnot buy.' They never “bite”, and burn to the last particle. There are various brands. Special favourites: Cut Plug No. 10 (rich, dark and full-flavoured), Cavendish (sporting mixture), Navy Cut No. 3 (a very choice blend, medium), Riverhead Gold (a mellow aromatic) and Desert Gold. All toasted and, therefore, safe.—Advt.
