“I mind the time when I knocked off smoking,” the bus driver confided to the man sitting alongside. Why did I? Well, the wife said. I was fanchucking money away on baccy, so I cut it but. The craving for a smoke was awful at first. Then it stopped. But Lord, how miserable I was! The wife said I was that snappy ’twasn’t safe to come anigh me. At last I went to my lodge doctor. He told me to start smoking again right away, but. said not to smoke baccy with a lot of nicotine in it. ‘Try the New Zealand,’ he says: ‘lt’s toasted.’ I’ll never knock off smoking again. I’d sooner knock off eating.” The lodge doctor knew. “It’s toasted,” he said, and in those two words explained the reason whv New Zealand tobacco is the best in the world. There’s practically no nicotine in it. The toasting eliminates it. There are, by the way, only five brands of toasted manufactured: Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold, Navy Cut, No. 3, Pocket Edition, and Cut Plug No. 10.—Advt.
