A little Auckland flapper caught smoking a surreptitious cigarette was severely admonished by mamma. But Mother,” pleaded the culprit, “you used to smoke yourself!” “I did, confessed mamma, “and I’ve seen the folly of it.” “But I want to see the folly of it, too,” pouted Miss Fifteen-years-old. The fascination of tobacco appeals to all alike. The craving is insistent. And why not? Smoking is not a crime. It won’t hurt anybody so long as the tobacco is right. The great thing is to steer clear of brands full of nicotine as practically all the imported lines are. The world’s purest and best tobaccos are the toasted New Zealand sorts. The toasting neutralises the poisonous nicotine and renders the tobacco absolutely harmless. There are onlv four toasted brands on the market —Biverhead Gold, Cavendish. Navy Cut N. 3 and Cut Plug No. 10. Of varying strength, they are all remarkable for their delicious flavour and delightful aroma. They will not burn the tongue however freely they are indulged in. and they leave the mouth sweet and clean. 145
