Choosing a birthday present for a man is not. as simple as shelling pens. You may so easily give him something he lias iio use for. Tons of money tire wasted on presents that tire received with perfunctory smiles and thanks, but are not valued. Tastes differ widely, but there is one taste common to 95 men out of every 100 —the taste for tobacco. I you ivant to give a present that -will appeal to nearly every man, give liim something to smoke, preferably a bit of good “cut up,” and the best cut-up tobacco is our own New’ Zealand grown. This ’baccy is the purest of any because (unlike the imported) it contains only a minimum quantity of nicotine. Consequently it can be smoked all day long “and then some” with enjoyment and without injury to health. So a really acceptable (and inexpensive) birthday gift is, say, a pound for a couple of pounds) of N.Z. tobacco. It is made in various strengths. “Riverhcad Gold” is mild, “Navy Cut” (Bulldog) is medium, and “Cut Plug No. 10” (Bullshead) is full-flav-oured.* —63
