“Wild Oats-,” the attractive title of a took by Eric Muspratt, is good reading. Amongst his adventures was a trip round the Horn, before the mast, .in one of the old "windjammers.” Half-way Home the ship ran out of tobacc-o—and consternation reigned in the fo’castle. One day the bosun, rummaging in his old sea chest, found a long-forgotten packet of cigarettes, and offered them to his shipmates at sixpence each! They were snapped up before you could say “wink”! Another time (when ashore), Eric had to go without tobacco, for several weeks. Picture his joy when he had his first smoke after that! Stay-at-homes who have never had to go without tobacco for a single day don’t realise their luck! Here in New Zealand you can get the finest tobacco manufactured —Cut Plug No. 1° (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold ' and Pocket Edition, also Riverhead and Desert Gold tailormades—at the nearest tobacconist s shop, and they’re not only famed for flavour and aroma, but practically free from nicotine because they’re toasted. No sore throat and no cough!—Advt.
