They 'were yarning about tobacco ii. the smoko-room of an Auckland club the other night. A well-known doctoi startled everybody by declaring that some brands were about as dangerous as dynamite, and mentioned the ca«s of a man who had consulted him some time before for bad throat trouble. “I asked him,” said the duor, "what brand of tobaeeu be used. He told inc, adding that he’d smoked t to-months. “Knock it off,” 1 wanted him, “t know that brand.” “ iVbat brand
would yon leeommend, doctort ' ho asked. “Why the genuine ‘toasted’,” 1 said, “it's not only the finest tobacco I know of, but the purest.” He’s all right again now—and swears by ‘toasted.’ There's nothing like it.” There isn’t. But there are only five brands of the real thing, remember — Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog),
Cut Plug No. 10 (Hullshoad), Riverbend Gold and Desert Gold. The two last are the cigarette tobaccos so popular with the roll-your-own brigade. Rut don’t get “stung” when you buy! Imitations are no good.*
