Tobaccos that burn the tongue and irritate the throat? Why, they are as common as house-flies m summ. What’s wrong with them? That s a:n easy one! Full of nicotine, so they may not only burn the tongue, but wreck the nerves, affect the heart, attack the throat, and play up with you generally. Give them a miss if you value your health. Why smoke them, anyway when you can get the S' 611 " uine toasted for the same (or less; money? Toasting, the manufacturers complex and unique process, eliminates the poisonous nicotine, while at the same time enhancing flavour ana aroma, and you not only get a thoroughly enjoyable smoke but a harmless one. Toasted possesses that clean, pure, sweet and fragrant quality you’ll look for in vain in other tobaccos. There are only six brands of the genuine article, remembqr: Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold and Pocket Edition. The three latter m.ake the finest cigarettes money can buy! And once you change over to toasted you’ll never want anything else. —Advt.
