Many a good story is told about smoking and smokers. The latest comes from Auckland. A bricklayer was called sharply to account by his foreman for smoking “on the job.” “I’m not smoking,’’ he replied. “But your pipe is in- your mouth,’’ declared the angry foreman. “That’s right,’’ said the bricklayer. “And my boots- are on my feet, but I’m not walking.” The foreman ppssed on. By the way, if you are looking for something special in. the shape of ’baccy, try our N.Z. varieties. They are excellent, and their fine flavour and delightful fragrance arc largely due to the fact that the leaf is toasted. This is quite a novel idea. Also (unlike the imported) they contain only a trifling percentage of nicotine. That’s why doctors favour them. Thanks to their wonderful purity they may bo smoked all day long without fear of consequences. They come in several strengths. “Riverhead Gold” is mild; “Navy Cut” is medium; and “Cut Plug No. 10” is a splendid fullflavoured tobacco. The latest addition is “Cavendish Mixture.” —Advt.
