Novels which literally sold by the million were penned by the late Charles Gar vice, whose literary output rivalled that of Edgar Wallace—-Gar-vice was indeed a prolific writer, and frankly acknowledged his indebtedness tr» tobacco as a source of inspiration. He was a heavy smoker. Before :iart- : >g to dictate to his t-ypiste he would fi.i half-a-dozen pipes with his ravvurite nriiV.vre, arrange them in a : ow. and srnoke one after the other. His tobacco was a special blend remarkably free from nicotine, in which respect it resembled our famous New Zealand tobaccos, the nicotine content of which, however, is smaller still. The toasting to which -the New Zealand tobacco, is subjected when manufactured accounts for its popularity. For flavour, fragrance', and all-round appeal, the four toasted brands, Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 8 (Bulldog), Cavendish, and Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), are unrivalled the world over. Absolutely harmless (as the result of toasting), these —the only toasted tobaccos—are universal favourites. Their success has brought out, mushroom like, a crop of imitations. Take 1 care when you Buy!—Advt.
