Choosing* a birthday present for a man is not as simple as shelling peas. You may so easily give him something ho has no use for. Tons of money are wasted on presents that are received with perfunctory smiles, and thanks but are not valued. Tastes differ widely, but there is one taste common to Bb'men out of every hundred —the taste for tobacco. If you want to give a present that will appeal to nearly every man give him 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 nico tine. Consequently it can be smoked all day long “and then some’’ with enjoyment and without injury to health. So a really accpetable (and inexpensive) birthday gift is, say, a pound (or a couple of pounds) ’of N.Z. tobacco, ft is made in various strengths. “Riverhead Gold’’ is mild, “Navy Cut (Bulldog) is medium and “Cut Plug No. 10” (Bullshead) is full flavourcd.-«=Ailxt.
