Like the fusel oil in bad whisky so the. nicotine in strong tobacco is injurious to health. It is an astonishing fact that the leaf produced in certain localities of the Auckland and Nelson districts contains less nicotine than any other tobacco known. This is of the utmost importance with regard to the development of the N.Z. tobacco industry, because it is just these mild types of leaf that are eagerly sought after by manufacturers abroad and fabulous prices are often paid for them. New Zealand indeed will become famous for its unique tobacco, and the local product will be our national smoke. Unlike some of the foreign tobaccos, the New Zealand article does not bite the tongue; it smokes smooth and mellow, and leaves the mouth sweet and clean. Moreover it is all pure tobacco, with a distinctive flavour, obtainable in various strengths. Cut Plug No. 10 for those who appreciate a fuf] body, and Biverhead Gold for the lover of a very mild aromatic, while Toasted Navy Cut represents the medium strength.* Don’t discuss your invention idea until you have consulted us about its protection and development. No matter how trivial your notion may seem to you there is probably big money in it if marketed in the right way. Come and chat the matter over.—Henry Hughes Ltd. (Directors: W. E. Hughes and J. T. Hunter, Kegd. Patent Attorneys), 157 Featherston St., Wellington. —6
